Graphene-X Kyorene clothing review: nourish tank, thermagraph pants, and everywhere jumpsuit

I pride myself on being a very active person. In addition to teaching and practicing yoga, I love to run, cycle, go to the gym, and get tangled in an aerial hammock.

There are times when I spend a whole day in activewear. Needless to say, I need apparel that is reliable, presentable, and comfortable. And while I can afford to get sweaty on my run, my outfit has to stay odor-free when I’m teaching.

This review covers three pieces from the brand new collection by (Graphene-X in collaboration with Kyorene), made with their specialized performance fabric with features incuding breathability, odor resistance, and anti-bacterial properties.

Over the course of two weeks, I truly put these items to the test. After wearing Graphene-X activewear in a variety of situations (both casual wear and exercise), here’s what stood out.

Graphene-X × Kyorene activewear collection

Graphene-X specializes in innovative clothing tech, particularly geared toward fitness and outdoor activities. In 2022, the company won an ISPO award which recognizes significant products in sports for their AeroGraph Puffer Jacket that uses the same insulation technology as NASA!

From base layers to outerwear, Graphene-X strives to develop the most functional of clothing made with purpose. The most recent activewear release includes three items:

• Everywhere Jumpsuit
• Nourish Tank
• Thermagraph Pants

For this set, Graphene-X teamed up with Kyorene (a company that pioneered graphene integrated fabrics) to create material that was lightweight, breathable, moisture-wicking, odor-resistant, as well as anti-bacterial and anti-UV.

Part of the mission was to ensure that the athletic pieces were stretchy enough to accommodate movement while maintaining their integrity and fitting well.

Everywhere jumpsuit

The Everywhere Jumpsuit is a one-piece with adjustable H-style straps, a built-in padded bra (with removable pads), and flared legs. It also comes with a removable elastic belt with a front buckle.

This body suit was designed with versatility in mind. The idea behind this piece is that you can wear it exercising but it is equally suitable for travel, going out with your friends, or delivering a boardroom presentation.

I tested it in several settings:

• Yoga practice at the gym
• Aerial yoga at a local community center
• Working remotely from a café (styled with an extra layer for warmth)

Nourish tank

The Nourish Tank is a seamless racerback tank with a built-in bra, with a very clean and flattering silhouette. The tank is full length, reaching roughly to the hip bones, which I personally prefer for activewear.

The seamless construction helps avoid visible lines across the body, and you can wear it tucked in or over the top of leggings or other pants. Mostly, I wore it with Thermagraph Pants (see below) for a series of workouts:

• Outdoor and treadmill runs
• Weight lifting at the gym
• Inversion practice (handstands and forearm stands)

I also wore it casually with jeans and shorts, and the simple design works well outside the gym.

Thermagraph pants

The high-waisted Thermagraph leggings feature seams that seem to be bonded or glued rather than traditionally stitched, creating a seamless effect that looks flattering on the body and eliminates friction points during activity.

They also include a removable belt with a larger clasp. Similar to the jumpsuit, I’m not entirely convinced the belt is necessary for workouts, but it does make the leggings easier to style casually. The belt loops are bonded and stitched, but you don’t feel them against the skin, which I liked.

As I tested them paired with the Nourish Tank, a few functional details stood out:

• No front seam, which means no camel toe
• Squat-proof fabric
• Subtle compression detail that enhances shape around the glutes

Fit, feel, and first impressions

I ordered all the items in size XS. For reference, my measurements are:

• Hips 86 cm (34.5 in)
• Bust 82 cm (32 in)
• Waist 66 cm (26 in)
• Height 158 cm (5’2″)

I normally wear an extra small in most brands, although I did find the size chart on the website a little confusing. Even as I unboxed the items, my main concern was that they looked rather small, especially the Thermagraph Pants.

I’m happy to say, my worries were unfounded. Not only did the Graphene-X activewear fit my body, it made me look amazing! The tank and leggings felt like a second skin, and the Everywhere Jumpsuit was very flattering in and out of the gym.

Although the jumpsuit looked beautiful on me, I had roughly 8-10 cm (3-4 inches) of extra fabric at the bottom. At the height of 5’2″, sadly it’s a common issue for me. The suit worked great styled with heels, but to wear it barefoot in a yoga class it would need to be tailored.

Finally, all three pieces felt incredibly luxurious and soft to touch. The fabric is also surprisingly dense for such a lightweight material; there were no embarassing seethrough moments no matter how stretched the clothes got.

Extra features

I was pleasantly surprised by the built-in bra, particularly in the Nourish Tank. Like many female athletes, I have had disappointing experiences in the past where the built-in feature was not the right fit.

Both the jumpsuit and the tank top have the option to remove the pads as a matter of preference or in case you want to wear a separate bra. For the purpose of this review, I wore these pieces as they come to see how they perform without additional support.

The belts on the juimpsuit and Thermagraph Pants did not appear particularly functional to me. However, if you’re looking for “chameleon” pieces that can act both as activewear and work clothes, the belt can make a big difference in elevating the outfit.

You should also note that while the belts are removable, the belt loops remain visible. With the seamless feel of the leggings, wearing a slightly longer top easily covers the loops. On the jumpsuit, the thin loops on the sides of the waist looked slightly out of place to me, which is why I preferred to leave the belt in.

Sizing and color options

Every item in the Graphene-X Kyorene collection is available in five sizes, ranging from women’s XS-XL.

You can choose between black or deep blue if you prefer a splash of color. If you’re anything like me, you might get both for some variety!

Performance

The Nourish Tank impressed me the most during these tests. In all my years of running and other dynamic workouts, I’ve never been able to rely on a built-in bra for high-impact activity. But in this tank top, I felt supported enough to run and invert, which was a very pleasant surprise. Of course, experiences may vary depending on body type or cup size, but for me it worked out really well.

Additionally, the Nourish Tank goes with any leggings, shorts, jeans, or sweatpants thanks to its clean and simple design.

The Thermagraph Pants were clearly designed with women in mind. Between the seamless fit that doesn’t rub or cut in anywhere and no front seam, these leggings perfectly combine comfort with function. I wasn’t blessed with a booty, so I also appreciated the subtle compression detail to help me look more sculpted.

I can confirm that these leggings are 100% squat-proof and basically suitable for any sport.

The Everywhere Jumpsuit, on the other hand, is more appropriate for low-impact activity like walking or yoga. The built-in bra and neckline design didn’t fully contain everything when upside down. That said, I did appreciate the adjustable straps, which helped customize the fit.

For aerial yoga specifically, the flared legs weren’t ideal, because they occasionally caught on the hammock fabric. That said, this is very specific to aerial practice and might not affect most activities.

After wearing this for 2 weeks straight (yes, even teaching in it), I kind of get why people are into graphene fabrics, you can explore the full collection here 

Fabric and functionality

Across the board, the fabric quality was top-notch. It feels smooth, lightweight, and comfortable; meanwhile, it was supportive and dense enough without being see-through.

The amount of stretch accommodates virtually any range of movement, yet the clothes still hold their shape during movement. The elasticity of the fabric also meant that the pieces fit me like a glove, without creating awkward rolls or lines across my body.

Performance-wise, this is what impressed me about the material:

• Quick drying even after a very sweaty workout
• Moisture wicking means the sweat doesn’t weigh down the garment
• No lingering odor (great for yoga teachers and other fitness professionals)
• Tight and supportive without feeling restrictive
• No embarassing sweat stains
• No noticeable decline in quality after laundry

Structure and aesthetic

Finally, I want to touch upon the design. Technical brands can be so focused on performance that they completely sideline the comfort and visual aspects, especially when it comes to sportswear.

The opposite is also true for many brands, where the clothes may look great but are not fit for purpose.

Considering that Graphene-X is a brand with 95% male audience, I was incredibly impressed that they managed to create premium women’s activewear that combines the aesthetics with functionality to this degree. It feels like a product designed by someone who respects and appreciates female athletes and wants us to look good while we’re crushing our goals.

I didn’t realize this at first, but Graphene-X has actually been featured in WWD recently. The article goes deeper into how they’re building the brand around graphene as a performance material, which made me look at this collection a bit differently:

After reading that, a lot of the fabric claims started to make more sense in practice.

Final thoughts

Overall, this collection left me incredibly impressed, both from a technical and the aesthetic standpoint. Wearing these activewear pieces from Graphene-X, not only did I feel beautiful, I also felt more confident knowing there is no odor, sweat stains, seethrough underwear, or spilling cleavage.

For me, the Nourish tank and Thermagraph leggings were the stronger pieces. They felt reliable during runs, gym sessions, and yoga, and transitioned easily into everyday wear. The Everywhere Jumpsuit, while visually flattering and versatile in theory, felt more suited to casual styling and low-impact activity.

This feels like a collection that sits somewhere between technical sportswear and lifestyle clothing. It won’t replace highly specialized gear for every activity, but it offers a balance of performance and versatility.

What stayed consistent across all three pieces was the fabric quality. It feels comfortable on the skin, performs well across different types of movement, and holds up in terms of moisture control and odor resistance.

If you’re looking for stylish, versatile and functional women’s sportswear, Graphene-X × Kyorene collection is definitely worth investing in!
