1) DICK’S Sporting Goods (Closest major location)
4.0•Sporting goods store
While there’s no flagship DICK’S right in Potomac, this large national sporting goods chain serves the area and offers a broad selection of workout apparel. You’ll find performance tees, compression pieces, training bottoms, activewear brands and more. Because it’s multi-brand and covers men’s, women’s and youth, it’s convenient when you want to compare fits, fabrics and price‐points in one spot.
Why it stands out: wide variety, good for basics and for more serious gym/training pieces.
Tip: because selection and specialization vary, if you care about high-tech fabrics or niche brands, it’s worth calling ahead to check which lines they carry (moisture-wicking, high-compression, etc).
2) Gym & Tonic (Boutique in Park Potomac)
5.0•Women’s clothing store
Located in the Park Potomac shopping area, this boutique specializes in luxury athleisure and high-end workout wear. According to prior local reporting, the store offers activewear that can transition from gym/studio to everyday casual—so it’s ideal if you value both performance and style. citybuzz+1
Why it stands out: stylish pieces, perhaps more fashion‐forward than your average sports store; good if you want workout clothes that look great outside the gym.
Tip: Because it’s more boutique and specialized, expect higher price points. The inventory may be smaller, so calling ahead to see what’s in stock (especially for sizes or specific brands) is smart.
3) Nearby Larger-Brand Activewear – e.g., multiple stores around DMV
Though not directly in Potomac, many national activewear/athletic apparel chains (such as those specializing in branded workout gear) are within easy drive of Potomac. If you’re willing to travel a bit, you’ll open up more options: premium yoga/athleisure, running/training gear, as well as clearance stores for deals.
Why it’s worth considering: If you have specific needs (e.g., high‐impact sports bras, elite running tights, trail training gear) or are shopping multiple people/brands, having more options helps.
Tip: Use Google or brand store locators and filter for “Activewear / performance apparel” near ZIP 20854. Check whether stock is current and whether the store specializes (brand-store vs general sporting goods).
