Abercrombie & Fitch Partners with Barry’s for Activewear Collection

NEW ALBANY, Ohio, Sept. 24, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Abercrombie & Fitch’s activewear brand, YPB (Your Personal Best), has announced a multi-season partnership with Barry’s, the original high-intensity interval workout studio. The collaboration aims to blend Abercrombie’s style expertise with Barry’s performance-driven designs, creating a collection that seamlessly transitions from workouts to everyday wear.

The first collection, featuring performance fabrics, versatile silhouettes, and functional layers, includes six styles for men and 12 styles for women. The collection will be available beginning Thursday, October 1, 2026, at Abercrombie.com and in select Abercrombie stores. It will be followed by Barrys.com and 75 Barry’s locations globally on October 15, 2026.

The partnership was designed with input from Barry’s instructors, including Jon Herrmann, Amy Harioka, and Lacy Mitchell. The collection features bold red accents inspired by Barry’s iconic Red Room, balanced by black and neutral tones that make the pieces easy to wear before, during, and after class. The collection reflects how both communities move through their day, balancing performance, versatility, and style in pieces made to transition from a workout to what comes next.

To bring the partnership to life, Abercrombie & Fitch will host in-person activations. YPB by Abercrombie will serve as the first official sponsor of Barry’s newly launched Mobile Studio, partnering on a pop-up experience in Austin, Texas, on October 2 and 3, 2026, coinciding with Austin City Limits. Guests will have an opportunity to preview the YPB by Abercrombie x Barry’s collection on-site. The experience will then continue in New York City, where YPB by Abercrombie x Barry’s will take over Barry’s NoHo studio from October 9 through 11, 2026. Guests can sign up for all upcoming classes at Barrys.com and on the Barry’s app.
