Gymshark Scraper

Scrape Gymshark — leggings, hoodies, sports bras, shorts, and the rest of the Gymshark activewear catalog. Browse by category, run a keyword search across the full catalog, or fetch full product detail (description, colour variants, size stock, and sample customer reviews) for specific product URLs. Real prices, sale prices, colours, sizes, and ratings — no login, cookies, or paid proxy required.

What this actor does

• Three modes: byCategory, search, byProduct
• 40 curated categories (leggings, shorts, sports bras, hoodies, joggers, tanks, seamless, swimwear, and more) as a dropdown, plus a free-text customCategorySlug override for any of Gymshark's other collection slugs
• Men's / Women's department filter
• Live pricing: current price, "was" price when discounted, computed discount %
• Rich filters: price range, sale-only, new-arrivals-only, in-stock-only, colour, size, fit, activity (lifting/HIIT/running/etc.), minimum customer rating
• Sort: best match, price low→high, price high→low, rating high→low
• Product detail mode adds: full description, colour variants with their own price/stock, a sample of the newest customer reviews, and an aggregate review breakdown (recommend %, star-rating distribution)
• Empty fields are omitted — every record only contains data Gymshark actually returned

• Deal aggregation — feed onSaleOnly results into a deals feed

Data source & limitations

Data comes directly from Gymshark's server-rendered storefront (gymshark.com) — no login, cookies, or paid proxy required. Every /collections/<slug>[/<gender>] and /products/<handle> page embeds a full JSON payload (an Algolia search response for collections, a complete product document for detail pages) directly in the page HTML.

• search mode scans the full "all products" catalog (~700 products per department) page by page and matches your keyword against title, category, colour, and tags — it is not Gymshark's own live-typeahead search (that endpoint is only reachable from a JS-hydrated browser session), but it covers the same catalog.
• Sort options are applied after fetching, not passed through to Gymshark's own (JS-only) sort widget — the underlying data is identical either way.
• Currency is always USD (gymshark.com's default US storefront).
• Some very small or seasonal/out-of-stock collections may return 0 products at any given time — this reflects Gymshark's live catalog, not a scraping error.

About this actor

This actor was built after determining that lululemon.com — the originally planned target for this activewear-catalog slot — rejects all connection attempts from Apify's cloud infrastructure at the network/TLS level (net::ERR_HTTP2_PROTOCOL_ERROR from a real headless browser, with and without Apify's free datacenter proxy; 400 Bad Request from AWS WAF Bot Control on TLS-impersonated requests; 403 Access Denied from Akamai on plain HTTP). Since the project only ships actors that work on Apify's free plan without paid residential proxy, Gymshark — a comparable activewear retailer that is fully and reliably reachable from Apify's free datacenter IPs — was built in its place.

FAQ

Do I need a Gymshark account or cookies? No — every field is publicly visible without logging in.

Why do some products have no compareAtPrice? Only currently-discounted products carry a compareAtPrice; full-price products only have price.

What does lowestPrice mean? It's Gymshark's own "lowest price in the last 30 days" figure, shown for price-transparency compliance in some markets.

Can I get every colourway of a product? Yes — every record includes availableColours (listing) or variants (detail mode), each with its own product URL and image.

How current is the data? Live — every run fetches the current Gymshark site directly; there is no caching layer.
