We’ve gotten a few requests on our gym wear reviews to share our sizing, so y’all can get a better idea of how exactly things fit on different sizes/body types. I’d been avoiding it for a while because 1.) it feels weird to share your measurements for the world to see & 2.) I know it can be triggering at times to see other people’s weight/measurements. We’ll be sharing our height/weight, measurements (B/W/H), and the typical sizes we buy in different workout clothes, to make it easier to find your size when online shopping. Because let’s be honest, the “sizing guides” on clothing brands’ websites only help so much… (And by that, I mean sometimes not at all.)
Our Sizing for Activewear
