Who This Collection Is For
Whether you're building your first gym kit or refreshing worn-out favourites, these soft accessories work for anyone who trains regularly. Runners appreciate moisture-wicking socks and hands-free hydration options. Strength athletes value the convenience of a reliable shaker that won't leak in their gym bag.
From beginners establishing their routine to experienced athletes maintaining theirs, these pieces fit seamlessly into active lifestyles. They're for anyone who knows that the details matter — that fresh socks can make a difference on leg day, and staying hydrated during a long run isn't optional.
Perfect for Any Workout
Crew socks work across every training style — lifting, running, cycling, or studio classes. They're the foundation of comfort during any session. Hydration vests come into their own on longer runs and outdoor adventures where carrying water hands-free makes all the difference to your performance.
Shakers earn their place in daily routines, whether you're mixing protein at the gym, preparing pre-workout at home, or bringing supplements to work. Multi-packs of socks mean you'll always have a fresh pair ready, while durable construction ensures these essentials keep pace with your training schedule week after week.
Key Features
Moisture-Wicking Comfort
Crew socks feature breathable fabric that keeps feet dry during intense sessions. The material moves moisture away from skin, reducing discomfort during cardio and strength work. Ribbed cuffs stay secure without digging in, so you can focus on your workout instead of adjusting your socks.
Hands-Free Hydration
Hydration vests let you carry water without breaking stride. Adjustable straps create a secure fit that stays put during movement, while accessible pockets keep essentials within reach. The lightweight design means you barely notice it's there until you need a drink.
Leak-Proof Reliability
Shakers seal tight to prevent spills in your bag. The screw-top lid locks securely, while measurement markers help you mix accurate servings every time. Clear construction lets you see when your shake is fully blended, and the wide mouth makes cleaning straightforward.
Durable Construction
These accessories are built to handle regular use and frequent washing. Reinforced stitching on socks prevents premature wear at stress points. Shakers resist cracking and staining even with daily use. Quality materials mean you'll get consistent performance session after session.

FAQs
How should I care for these accessories?
Machine wash crew socks on a warm cycle and tumble dry on low to maintain their shape and elasticity. For hydration vests, hand wash or use a gentle machine cycle, then air dry to preserve the materials. Shakers can go in the dishwasher on the top rack, or hand wash with warm soapy water immediately after use to prevent odours building up.
What size hydration vest should I choose?
Hydration vests feature adjustable straps that accommodate a range of body types. Check the product page for specific sizing guidance, but most designs work across multiple sizes thanks to the customisable fit. The vest should sit snug against your body without restricting breathing or movement during runs.
Are the crew socks suitable for running and gym sessions?
Absolutely. The moisture-wicking fabric and cushioned construction work well for both cardio and strength training. The socks stay secure during dynamic movements like sprints and box jumps, while the breathable material keeps feet comfortable during longer sessions.
Can I use the shaker for hot liquids?
These shakers are designed for cold and room-temperature liquids like protein shakes, pre-workout, and amino acid drinks. Avoid using them with very hot liquids, as the plastic isn't designed to withstand high temperatures and could warp or become unsafe to handle.
How many pairs of socks come in the multi-packs?
Multi-packs are available in 3-pack and 5-pack options, clearly marked in the product title. The larger pack offers better coverage for frequent trainers who work out multiple times per week, while the 3-pack suits those building their collection gradually.
Who designed these accessories?
Myprotein's in-house design team created these pieces, drawing on feedback from active customers to develop practical features that meet real training needs. The team focuses on combining functionality with durability, creating accessories that perform reliably across different workout styles.
Will the shaker fit in a standard cup holder?
The shaker is designed with a streamlined shape that fits most gym bag pockets and car cup holders. Check the product dimensions on the listing if you need it to fit a specific space, but the standard size works well for everyday portability.
How do I prevent the socks from slipping during workouts?
Choose the correct size using the sizing guide on the product page — socks that fit properly won't slide down during movement. The ribbed cuffs provide extra grip around the calf, helping them stay in place during jumps, runs, and lateral movements without feeling restrictive.
