Best Fashion Advice for Islamic sportswears
- Find a pair of comfortable loose fitting pant, meaning the width of the pants is right that doesn't hug the contour of your legs. I recommend yoga pants, straight leg with stretchy elastic waistband. They look sleek and flawless.
- It is an advantage to have full front zipper sportswear top or jacket that opens from the bottom to the top for easy access and extra room for leg movement.
- Find specific Islamic sportswear suit. The advantage of the suit is that it merges modesty with performance, that is great for outdoor and indoor sports activities . The suit includes pants, jacket and hijab.
- It is important to find the fabric that offers the breath-ability needed for intense activity and at the same time always remains loose for complete modesty.
- Wear comfortable Amira type hijab with material that breathes well and yet is heavy enough to stay firmly in place, with no pins and lose material flying in the wind - it will be perfect in all sports activities all year round.
- Find suitable hijab for specific sport activities to ensure nothing fell on the face when you do activities such as a head stand, a shoulder stand or other intense upper body movement like aerobic, basketball or tennis etc.
- Choose 100% biodegradable, high absorbent material as this fabric keeps you drier, cooler and more comfortable.

Muslim Sportswear Feature – Capsters
Created by young Dutch designer Cindy van den Bremen, Capsters are sleek head coverings made from comfortable, stretchy fabrics, and come in a variety of styles to match different activities and sports looks: aerobic, outdoor, skate and tennis.
The concept is based on the idea to provide Muslim girls and their gym teachers in the Netherlands an alternative to the traditional hijabs when taking part in physical activities.
Covering a woman's head and neck as required for Muslim women, make it possible for Muslim women to participate in sports and physical activities without having to worry about their hijabs shifting.
The designs were accomplished in close co-operation with Muslim girls and an Imam. In 2001 the first sports range was launched and has been sold worldwide eversince.
