1/4 zips
Shop Men's Quarter Zips at Myprotein
A men's quarter zip is one of those training staples that earns its place in every gym bag. Easy to throw on before a session, quick to unzip mid-workout when things heat up — it's the kind of layer that just works. The MP Men's Training 1/4 Zip range is built for exactly that: versatile, clean-looking, and ready for whatever you're training for.
Available in Navy, Black, and Storm, these men's quarter zip pullovers are cut for the gym but sharp enough to wear straight out of it. Whether you're warming up on the gym floor or heading out after a session, this collection has you covered.
Who This Collection Is For
These quarter zips are built for men who train regularly and want kit that keeps up. If you're lifting, running, or doing anything in between, a men's training quarter zip gives you that extra layer when the warm-up matters — without adding bulk that gets in the way.
They're also a solid pick for anyone who wants gym wear that doesn't look out of place outside the gym. The clean embroidered logo and twin needle stitch finishing give these tops a considered look that works as hard off the weights floor as it does on it.
When to Wear a Quarter Zip
A men's quarter zip pullover is the ideal warm-up layer — wear it over a base tee when you're getting loose, then unzip when you're ready to go. It's just as useful for outdoor runs and morning sessions where the temperature hasn't decided what it's doing yet.
Beyond the gym, this is the kind of top that transitions easily. Post-session errands, a casual day out, or just something comfortable to wear around the house — the quarter zip sweatshirt styling means it doesn't look out of place anywhere.
Key Features
Embroidered Logo to Chest
A clean, embroidered MP logo sits at the chest — subtle enough to keep things sleek, detailed enough to show the quality of the finish.
Twin Needle Stitch Finishing
The cuffs and hem are finished with twin needle stitching for a structured look that holds its shape wash after wash. It's the kind of detail that separates well-made kit from the rest.
Quarter Zip Collar
The zip sits at the quarter mark for quick temperature control during training. Open it up to let heat out, keep it zipped when you need to stay warm — simple and effective.
Three Colourways to Choose From
Navy, Black, and Storm give you enough range to pick what fits your kit without overcomplicating it. All three are easy to match and built to the same spec.

FAQs
What is a men's quarter zip?
A quarter zip is a pullover-style top with a short zip that runs from the collar down to roughly chest height. It gives you easy layering without the bulk of a full zip — perfect for training, warm-ups, or everyday wear.
How do these quarter zips fit?
The MP Men's Training 1/4 Zip is cut with a gym-focused fit — roomy enough to move freely, structured enough to look intentional. If you're between sizes, sizing up gives you a slightly more relaxed feel, while your usual size keeps things more fitted.
What activities are these men's quarter zip pullovers suited to?
They're designed with training in mind, so gym sessions, outdoor runs, and warm-up routines are the natural home for these tops. That said, the clean styling means they work just as well as a casual layer outside of training.
How should I care for my quarter zip sweatshirt?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and avoid tumble drying to keep the fabric and embroidered detailing in good shape. Always check the care label on your specific garment for the exact guidance.
Who designed the MP Men's Training 1/4 Zip?
These quarter zips are designed by Myprotein's in-house design team, with training practicality and everyday wearability both built into the brief.
Can I wear a quarter zip gym top as a casual sweatshirt?
Absolutely. The embroidered logo, clean colourways, and twin needle stitch finishing give these tops a polished enough look to wear well beyond the gym. Pair with joggers or jeans and they hold their own.
Which colour should I go for?
It depends on what you're matching it with. Black and Navy are the most versatile — easy to pair with most kit. If you want something a little different, the MP Men's Training 1/4 Zip in Storm offers a cooler, more distinctive look while keeping the same quality finish and embroidered chest logo.
Are these quarter zips true to size?
Generally yes — these come up as expected for a training-fit top. Check the size guide on the product page for specific chest and length measurements to make sure you land on the right fit.
