What to Wear to Your First Class at True40

The Only Rule: Wear What Makes You Feel Confident

Starting at a new fitness studio can feel intimidating, but here’s the best news: at True40, there’s no dress code. Whether you’re coming to your first class or you’re a regular, our philosophy is simple—wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and ready to move.

Leggings and a tank top? Perfect. Shorts and an oversized tee? Absolutely. That colorful matching set you’ve been wanting to try? We’re here for it. Unlike some boutique fitness studios where you feel out of place if you’re not in all-black attire or a specific brand, we believe your workout gear should reflect your personal style and comfort level.

The One Essential: Sticky Socks (And Why They Matter)

While we’re flexible on everything else, we do require sticky socks for all classes. These grippy-bottom socks are essential for:

• Safety during workouts – preventing slips on the barre and studio floor
• Hygiene – keeping our studio clean for everyone
• Better performance – helping you hold poses and transitions with confidence

Don’t have sticky socks yet? No problem. Every True40 studio has an in-studio boutique that carries a variety of styles and colors, so you can grab a pair before your first class. We even carry them in our online shop. 

What Most Members Wear to Class

While there’s no uniform at True40, here’s what you’ll typically see in our studios:

Bottoms: High-waisted leggings, bike shorts, or joggers are popular choices. 

Tops: Sports bras, fitted tanks, or breathable t-shirts work great. Since our signature high intensity-low impact format involves a lot of movement, most people opt for tops that won’t ride up or get in the way.

Sports Bras: Medium to high support is recommended, especially for our cardio portions.

Shop Our In-Studio Boutique

Part of what makes the True40 community special is our carefully curated in-studio boutique. Every location carries:

• Sticky socks in various styles and colors
• Quality athleisure wear
• Workout essentials you might have forgotten
• True40 branded merchandise

Our instructors and staff can help you find pieces that work for your body and your workout style—no pressure, just friendly guidance.
