What a used activewear set is worth by condition
Condition does more to the price than anything else. These figures are worked from the top of the range for activewear sets, so treat them as a starting point and adjust for the specifics of yours.
| Condition | Typical price | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| New with Tags | £55 | Unused, tags or seals intact |
| Like New | £46 | Barely used, no visible wear |
| Good | £35 | Light signs of use, complete and working |
| Fair | £24 | Heavily used, or a described fault or missing part |
| For Parts | £13 | Not working or incomplete, sold as seen |
These are the five grades WishThrift listings use, and sellers set the grade themselves — see what each condition grade means. Figures are shown in pounds as a reference point. On WishThrift prices display in your own currency, and sellers set their own asking price.
What raises the value of a activewear set
- Recognised activewear brands with a following
- Fabric with no pilling or transparency when stretched
- Intact waistbands with working elastic
- Complete matching sets
What lowers it
- Pilling between the thighs, very common
- Fabric that goes sheer when stretched
- Perished waistband elastic
- Unbranded sets, which sell for very little
How to work out what yours is worth
- Stretch the fabric against the light to check opacity
- Inspect the inner thigh area for pilling
- Confirm both pieces match in size and colour
Once you have those three answers you can place your own activewear set on the table above with reasonable confidence. If it sits between two rows, price it toward the lower one — items priced honestly sell faster than items priced hopefully.

Frequently asked questions
Does used activewear sell?
Recognised brands sell well; unbranded sets sell for very little. Fabric condition matters more than in most clothing.
How do I check if leggings have gone sheer?
Stretch the fabric over your hand against the light. If you can see through, buyers will notice too and should be told.
Should sets be sold together?
Yes. Matching sets sell noticeably better than separates in this category.
