Accessories for sport
Accessories are the part of the kit you notice only when they are missing. A bag that fits the day, a bottle you refill without thinking, socks that never slip.
The short list
- A gym bag with a separate pocket for wet kit and shoes.
- A bottle you like enough to actually carry.
- Socks with a fitted heel — the cheapest fix for blisters.
- A cap or headband for outdoor sessions.
- Hair ties, a small towel and a pouch that keeps them together.
How to choose
Accessories should reduce decisions, not add them. If an item lives permanently in the bag and never needs a second thought, it earns its place.
Where HAY is going
Accessories are one of the directions the HAY range grows into, alongside running, swimwear, lifestyle and recovery. The launch is announced first on Instagram.

Questions on this topic
Does HAY sell accessories yet?
The showroom is still in development. Accessories for training and active days are part of the planned range, and the launch is announced on Instagram @hay.sport first.
What accessories are worth buying first?
Good socks and a bag that fits a full day. Both are used every single session, which is more than most gear can claim.
