Paragon was so kind to send me these flare leggings to try out. Thank you so much, Paragon! While these pieces were gifted, this review itself is not sponsored, and all the thoughts shared here are my 100% honest opinions.
Sports Bra Review
FormLux Multi-Fit Bra
The multi-fit bra is really comfortable and supportive. It has adjustable straps in the back so you can adjust it to fit you well. I normally end up pulling the adjusters pretty loose because I find that most comfortable.
This bra comes with removable pads for extra coverage if you want it. The straps are thin but still very supportive.
It is the FormLux material so while still being super soft, it’s a bit more compressive and tight than the Reluna fabric.
I absolutely love the fit, comfort, and support of this sports bra. I end up reaching for this one and the mist color (below) constantly for running and weightlifting.
The wildberry color is stunning! It’s a dark wine looking purple that is really flattering when worn. I have a matching pair of flare leggings in the wildberry color that look gorgeous as a set. Check out my review of those here.
The mist color is so pretty and flattering on. I paired this sports bra with the thistle (sage green) leggings and absolutely loved the combo. You can see my review of those leggings here.
FormLux Racer Curve Bra
Dogwood (M)
This bra is very supportive, comfortable and flattering. It’s more of a longline sports bra that could be worn on its own as a crop top.
There are adjustable straps in the back, so you can adjust it to fit you perfectly. It also comes with removable pads.
The fit is great, not too tight or compressive, even though it has a bit more support than Paragon’s other sports bras I’ve worn.
It has buttery soft material, but feels a bit thicker. I also have a pair of Reluna leggings in the Dogwood color which look beautiful as a set! You can read my review of those (and other Paragon leggings) here.
CurveFlex Rib Contour Seamless Bra
This is a different material from most of Paragon’s sports bras that I have. I was expecting it to be more compressive, but it’s actually very soft and stretchy and has a lot of room to breathe and move around.
It runs a little big, which you can see from the photo, so I’d recommend sizing down if you’re in between sizes and want a tighter fit. I actually like how this fits a bit bigger though, it’s really comfy and could easily be worn around the house.
This comes with removable pads which I removed before taking the photos. Overall, I really like the CurveFlex material and it’s surprisingly comfortable.
RecStretch Legend Brami
Cyber (M)
I love these bramis so much. They are really comfortable and lightweight while still holding everything in place.
I’ve worn these on jogs and to lift and they hold up well for both, in my experience. These are a light to medium support bra and have removable pads (which I removed before taking the photos.)
It has an elastic banded built in bra to hold everything in place. It doesn’t have adjustable straps, but the fit is already on point and doesn’t need them in my opinion. The cyber color is a gorgeous green.
Reluna Essential Bralette
I absolutely love the Reluna Essential Bralettes! These are some of the bras that I reach for most often because they’re so flattering, comfortable, and stay in place during any workout I do. I wear these to stregnth train, run, stretch, walk, everything.
I have this bra in two colors (both shown below) and love them both.
They do come with removable pads which I normally remove. The bralette has adjustable straps which I love, so you can find the perfect fit for you. It’s not too tight in any area but still stays in place during your workouts.
Amber (M)
Ivy (M)
CloudRib Engage Bra
Ace (M)
This is a longline sports bra and can easily be worn as a crop tank top.
This bra comes with removable pads, which I took out before taking the photos. I normally end up taking out all bra pads because I don’t like to deal with them in the washer. But they’re there if you want the extra coverage.
This bra is soft, comfy, and the ribbed pattern is really cute and flattering.
My only complaint is that it does not have adjustable straps. But honestly, I find that the fit is already great without them. Normally, I prefer the adjustability, but it’s not a problem in this bra.
Tops & Pump Cover Review
Cotton Reps Pump Cover
Mauve (M)
I decided to size up in this pump cover after ordering a small the first time (in a previous collection). The small still fit perfectly fine, I just love an oversized t-shirt, and prefer the fit of the medium in this.
The mauve color is stunning – so subtle and pretty when worn. The design and font on this pump cover is really fun too! The front just has “Paragon” in bubble letters, but the back has a bit more going on. I just think it’s so cute and fun to wear.
The t-shirt itself is very comfortable, it’s a slightly thicker material t-shirt and an oversized fit to begin with. I love wearing these around the house or to the gym over my sports bra and leggings.
The only complaint I have with Paragon’s pump covers is the collar is a bit tight around the neck for my liking. I don’t like things touching my neck so I have to stretch these out at the neck a bit to be comfortable. This is honestly a personal preference because I know other people enjoy a tighter fitted collar for the look/feel. Other than that, the shirt is very comfy.
RecStretch Short Sleeve Crop
Cotton Candy (2XL)
My good friend, Cassi, is jumping in to review this crop top!
Cassi:
After using their clothes to do a leg day, I have to say I’m pretty impressed overall. I love how the material feels and it’s easy to move in to the point. As a plus size girl it can be hard to find work out clothes to feel good and feel like they’re moving with me, but this set hit the spot.
The top did scrunch up a bit but since I was strength training, it didn’t bother me too much. I was able to get it fixed between sets so it at least stayed in place majority of my workout.
Overall I have nothing but great things to say about this collection.
RecStretch™ Classic Crop
The RecStretch classic crop tanks are super comfortable and buttery soft. They have a built in shelf bra and come with removable pads (which I normally take out.) They come in gorgeous colors like this pastel yellow that I’m obsessed with!
These crop tops are best, in my experience, for lighter workouts like pilates, yoga, or walking.
Paragon Fitwear Sports Bras Review: In Conclusion
Overall, Paragon Fitwear sports bras and tops are some of my favorites from any activewear line. They all have their own pros and cons, but overall, they’re SUPER comfortable, buttery soft, and hold up great in different types of workouts.
