You know that feeling when you want your gym clothes to do more than just support your workout? When you want them to make you feel confident, stylish, and completely in your element, be it if you're at the gym or grabbing coffee right after? That’s exactly why Irorun was created. It’s a homegrown activewear brand made for women who want to feel strong, look good, and move with intention.

Wondering how it all came to life? The story behind Irorun starts with one simple idea—and it might just inspire your next gym fit, so let's get started. 

The Moment It All Came Together

Ragini Singh: Founder of IRORUN, an Indian women's activewear clothing brand.

 

We started Irorun back in March 2023 with one clear thought in mind where I- Ragini Karan Singh  wanted to feel just as confident walking into the gym as I would walking into a party. Most activewear I found was either too basic to inspire me, or stylish but way too expensive. There was always a trade-off between comfort, quality, and design, and honestly, it just didn’t feel right.

With a Master’s degree in Fashion Designing from INFD Mumbai and years of experience working with fabrics, fits, and styling, I knew there had to be a better way. We poured that knowledge into building something new—activewear that’s skin-friendly, body-flattering, and made to feel good all day, whether you're breaking a sweat or running errands.

It took months of research to get it right, but Irorun finally came to life because we believed Indian women deserved better. Affordable, premium-quality fits that feel as powerful as they look.

The Irorun Vision

Let's be real - India's activewear market is on a remarkable growth trajectory, projected to grow about 114 (USD Million) by 2035. The India Athleisure Market is expected to be around 10.168% during the forecast period (2025 - 2035).

And here at IRORUN, we see this not just as a statistic but as a reflection of a deeper shift where women seek activewear that seamlessly blends functionality with fashion.

Our mission is to fill the gap between high-priced designer gym wear and low-quality basics. By blurring the lines between gym and street style, Irorun empowers women to feel confident and stylish, wherever their day takes them.

What Makes Us Different?

Activewear should fit you—not the other way around. At Irorun, we design specifically for Indian women, paying close attention to how our clothes actually move and feel on real bodies.

Our fabrics are chosen to be soft, breathable, and durable because sweating it out shouldn’t mean sacrificing comfort. The cuts flatter without being restrictive, making sure you look good grabbing lunch right after the gym. 

We also believe good design shouldn’t cost a fortune. So we work hard behind the scenes to keep prices fair without cutting corners on quality.

And yes, we care about the planet. That means thoughtful sourcing and smarter production choices to reduce waste wherever possible.

Irorun is about making activewear that fits your lifestyle—not just your workout.
