A fitness influencer has hit out at Nike and Adidas, claiming they make women’s exercise clothing ‘too tight and cropped’. 

Donna Dunne, who resides in Ireland, went to a sportswear shop in the hopes of finding some new workout gear.

However, she was thoroughly disappointed to find that many of the garments were unsuitable and could ‘barely cover’ her buttocks. 

But when she was shopping around in the men’s section, she found the choices to be different – looser, brighter and with suitable pockets. 

She said on an Instagram clip: ‘Sorry but what the f*** is going on with women’s sports clothes? 

Donna Dunne went to a sportswear shop in the hopes of finding some new workout gear – but she was disappointed 

‘I’m here having a little browse around a well-known sports shop looking at all the fabulous men’s stuff with the pockets, the bright coloured t-shirts and the fabric that doesn’t stick to your fatty bits. 

‘Shorts that come down to a decent length so that your a** isn’t sticking out.’

Donna then headed to the women’s section, where she came across cropped t-shirts that were ‘super short’ in length.

The content creator – who is a lecturer in exercise science and online fitness – said the attire was designed for women who have ‘no fat’.

She added: ‘I mean seriously? Have you ever met a woman who has not got any fat?’

Donna then held up a pair of pink Nike Pro shorts and called them ‘ridiculous’, and claimed that they were ‘not designed for women’. 

She added: ‘I mean, I’m a skinny b**** and these women’s shorts wouldn’t cover [me]. Sports brands, if you want to empower women, stop making clothes that don’t fit us.’ 

Donna said she previously loved wearing Adidas and Nike clothing but that the logo had peeled off her new leggings, adding that ‘the quality is no longer there’.

Donna’s original video racked up almost 45,000 likes on Instagram and received many comments – with many agreeing with her rant

After receiving many comments on her first video, Donna made a second clip responding to some of the questions people had.

They asked why she wouldn’t shop in the men’s section instead, to which she replied: ‘I’m not a man, I’m a petite woman, so the men’s clothes won’t fit me. 

‘All I’m asking for is a bit of choice.  

‘We want longer t-shirts, longer shorts and we don’t want to have to look in the men’s section for clothes that cover our a**es.’

Donna’s original video racked up almost 45,000 likes on Instagram and received many comments – with many agreeing with her rant.

One wrote: ‘100 per cent. It’s so degrading. And stop doing it for girls starting as young as four.’

Another said: ‘Totally agree. I’m skinny and not in a million years would I wear what’s on offer in gym clothing at the moment.

‘I go to the gym to lift weights, not for my entire body to be on display! I want everything covered! Who is their actual market? Because it’s not people who actually go to the gym!’

A third penned: ‘And why is everything pink!’

A fourth commented: Can’t buy a whole t-shirt these days.’ 

Nike and Adidas have been contacted for comment.
