Is this a gift?

Active Savvy is a high-performance sports detergent designed to deeply clean activewear, remove sweat odour and bacteria, and protect technical fabrics without damaging stretch or performance.

The Best Detergent for Gym Clothes & Activewear Australia

Struggling with gym clothes that still smell after washing?

Activewear is made from synthetic fibres that trap sweat, oils, and bacteria deep within the fabric. Regular detergents often leave residue behind, locking in odour and reducing performance.

Active Savvy is specifically formulated to clean these fibres properly — helping your activewear stay fresh, breathable, and long-lasting.

Perfect For
  • Activewear, gym clothes & leggings
  • Sweat-heavy fabrics & odour removal
  • Swimwear & technical performance fabrics

One specialised sports detergent, no need for multiple products.

Why It Works
  • Removes sweat odour (not just masks it)
    Targets bacteria trapped in synthetic fibres — the root cause of lingering smells.
  • Designed for activewear & technical fabrics
    Maintains stretch, breathability, moisture-wicking and colour vibrancy.
  • Natural antibacterial sports wash
    Plant-based antimicrobial formula helps sanitise gym wear, swimwear, and towels.
  • Residue-free, low-foaming formula
    Rinses clean to prevent fibre clogging: A key cause of odour build-up.
  • Protects performance & waterproof fabrics
    Safe for activewear, swimwear, and outerwear without damaging coatings or elasticity.
  • Eco-friendly & sensitive-skin safe
    Biodegradable, plant-based, and free from harsh chemicals.
  • Concentrated (up to 64 washes)
    Powerful clean with just one capful (7.5ml) per load.

  • Aqua (Purified Water), Decyl Glucoside (non-ionic plant-based, coconut-derived cleanser), Potassium Cocoate (coconut oil), Potassium Olivate (olive oil), Glycerine (plant/vegetable derived sugar), Sodium Chloride (Sea Salt), Citric Acid
  • Natural Oil Blend (5 different antimicrobial natural oils), Scent – Xtra Fresh (naturally derived)

How to Wash Activewear & Gym Clothes Properly

For your convenience, use the bottle cap for measuring. Use 1 capful (7.5ml) per machine load. Wash activewear in cold water on a gentle cycle to maintain elasticity and performance fibres.

Turn garments inside out before washing to effectively remove sweat, oils, and odour build-up. Avoid overloading the machine to ensure a thorough clean.

Pre-treat stains with Stain Savvy laundry stick if required.

Q1: What is the best detergent for activewear?

A detergent specifically designed for activewear, like Active Savvy, helps remove sweat, odour, and bacteria while protecting performance fabrics.

Q2: Can I use Active Savvy on all gym clothes?

Yes — Active Savvy is suitable for all activewear, including leggings, sports bras, gym tops, and technical fabrics.

Q3: Does Active Savvy remove sweat odour?

Yes — it targets and removes the bacteria that cause odour, leaving your activewear fresh after every wash.

Q4: Will it damage performance fabrics?

No — Active Savvy is designed to maintain stretch, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties.

Q6: Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes — the formula is gentle, plant-based, and free from harsh irritants, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

Q7: How much should I use per wash?

Use one capful (7.5ml) per machine load. For best results, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle.

Q8: Do I need to use fabric softener with activewear?

No — fabric softeners can damage performance fabrics. Active Savvy cleans effectively without needing additional products.

Q9: Why do gym clothes still smell after washing?

Sweat odour trapped in activewear doesn't come from sweat itself — it comes from bacteria embedded deep within synthetic fibres. Activewear requires a different approach from cotton clothing. Technical fabrics rely on stretch fibres, moisture-wicking technology and breathable construction. Active Savvy is a specialised activewear detergent designed to remove stubborn odours, clean technical fabrics properly and help maintain stretch, breathability and performance.

So surprised at how well this worked

So surprised at how well this worked. Great job Bon Savvy, i haven't came across a sports detergent like this before that actually does what it's supposed to do. I'm pretty fussy and i absolutely hate having to spend a long time washing my sports bras and leggings. This was simple and i really like the scent.

It works! Gentle on my eczema

Purchased Active Savvy because a friend told me about it. I do a lot of sports and go to the gym. I like natural products, I have to be careful because I have eczema and I find a lot of laundry detergents affect my skin. I found Active Savvy washed my sports stuff really well including my sports bras and leggings. Also it didn't trigger any skin issues, which is fantastic. I like the fresh smell. Really great results.

Thanks so much for sharing your fabulous review!

Really good stuff for my gymwear

I'm in the gym about 5 times a week. I sweat a lot and my stuff gets smelly. I have tried a lot of other laundry brands - the laundry sheets are such a waste of time. Also tried some other sports wash detergents and they are all kind of hit and miss, don't work, smell bad or leave a residue. Also I have found powder detergents for sports clothes are the worst. I have now tried Active Savvy and frankly it's exceeded my expectations. It worked the first time. No residue, it smells really good. I just have to chuck my stuff in the washing machine and it comes out great. I prefer to support an Aussie business too, I'm really happy with this. Good stuff Bon Savvy - I'll be back.

Hi Timothy, that's awesome! So glad you've had such great success with our Active Savvy. Really appreciate you taking the time to review.

Best sports wash for gym clothes, pilates outfits.

I go to the gym a lot and also do pilates. I spend a lot on my workout outfits. I find they tend to lose their colour pretty quickly plus it's the sweat stains that really annoy me. But honestly, it's the rank smell that seems to get after a while, no matter how much I wash them, when I wear them again they start to stink. I did a search online and came across Active Savvy, I liked that it was made in Australia, that it was natural and meant to be antibacterial. I have been using Active Savvy for a while now and I have to say I am so impressed! My gear smells great, the sweat stains seem to go really easily and I only need to use a bit each time I wash and it works really well. Have told my friends about it.

Thanks Michelle! We think Active Savvy is a game-changer!
