They are much harder to clean and keep hygienic. They get smelly much faster. They smell worse within a workout and they are hard to clean between workouts.
Erima is a German company (that's been around for 115 years!!) They have affordable high quality workout clothes. In all kinds of colours, they are often used as kits for a specific team or club, but of course you can also just buy it for yourself.
Have you looked at Decathlon? They're French.

Decathlon is French, so that's an option as well.
