sportswear suitable for people with eczema?

does anyone know of a sportswear outlet that stocks clothes suitable for people with eczema

Never heard of such a thing. I get dermatitis on my feet, I have to wear pure cotton socks, (not cotton rich). I expect you should switch to natural fibres anyway, and wash in non-bio powder.

im thinking mainly under armour and raingear. cotton is suitable for indoors training but doesnt offer protection from rain or wind and is too bulky

im training 6 times per week at the mo with 3 outside. my eczema is bad at the mo so need something badly

Hey Maradona10. If you find out more info on this will you post it here please? My eczema is ridiculously bad lately too. I wonder is it the weather or what?

I've pretty bad eczema too, only thing that really helps is to wair loose fitting clothes with as soft material as possible, cotton doesnt always mean best, some of my poly shirts feel like silk on my skin and some of my 100% cotton ones feel like sandpaper (Dunnes 100% cotton shirts in particular I just cannot wair at all without being an irritable scratchball all day).

I think really there is no simple answer to this bar touch and feel, if it feels rough then just avoid it and maybe buy a size bigger than most others might to let the air circulate and cool irritable skin.

Lycra doesnt itch me either..but that would be scary if anyone saw me currently in that hehhe (I train at home so it doesnt matter).
