Fabletics
Have you heard of Fabletics? It’s the activewear company founded by actress Kate Hudson. You may have seen ads on the Internet or even a TV commercial. I kept hearing about their deal for a $15 workout outfit, and when I saw it dropped to $10, I had to give it a try.
So, was it worth it? Did I like the clothing from Fabletics? What’s the catch for getting a super cheap outfit? I’ll tell you everything for Try It Tuesday!
The Deal
Fabletics offers different “deals” all the time. Most of the time, you get a couple of their products for a great introductory price…IF you sign up for their VIP service.
What is their VIP service?
Every month, you are sent their new outfits priced $49.95 and above. You must either decide to buy one or “skip” the month by the 5th day, or your credit card will be charged the $49.95. That will be kept in your account as a credit that you can use in the future.
They also offer a point system to earn free products, a free online workout every month, and discounts on other health-related products that they’ve partnered with.
Make sense? If not, I’ll explain it again, as I walk you through my experience.
What I bought
As I mentioned, they had a special going for a complete 2-piece outfit for $10. I figured that at $10, I couldn’t go wrong if I even liked just one of the pieces.
The outfits are paired together, mostly tank tops and pants. With many of the outfits, you can choose the color of your top and the color of the bottom. The have plenty of bright colors and crazy patterns, but they also have more conservative choices too. I don’t get to crazy with my workout gear, but some of the patterns looked really fun.
For my outfit, I went with “Billie” which was a strappy tank top and capri pants. I chose black pants and a bright orange/red top.
The tank was a comfortable cotton blent, and I really loved the color. It was very true to what they showed on the site. The pants seemed very sturdy and thick, which is important for me when I workout. I don’t want them ripping or showing anything through. I got a size small in both pieces, and they fit well. (Please excuse the strap on the tank…although, I’m sure it would move when working out too!)
And more…
Shipping is free at $49.95, and you know how much I hate paying for shipping, so I tried out a few more items that were also discounted.
When you hit the checkout button, they take you to a page where there are items discounted just for you. I found a great jacket and 2 more tank tops. My total with taxes was $62.43. For 5 workout pieces, I thought this was a great deal.
Here’s a look at my other items:
The Jojo Jacket (which I absolutely LOVE. It feels great. Awesome details, and I love the length. Definitely my favorite item!)
Aventura Tank (which I tried out…and it was awesome!)
And finally the Delta Seamless Tank paired again with my new black capri pants (super comfortable and flattering!)
Pros and Cons
Overall, I have to say I loved the clothing. Plus, it was super fun getting the package in the mail. The prices were great for the introduction, and they do keep sending me email deals with other great prices.
I haven’t cancelled the service yet, but I did skip my first month. I’m going to keep it for a while, and see how it goes. I will keep you updated if/when I cancel, and how that process goes. It seems to be pretty straightforward, though. You either can chat Online or call to cancel.
So, here’s what I liked:
- Great introductory prices
- Awesome quality
- Flattering fit
- Survived a workout and a washing and look great
- Felt great when working out – not too hot, didn’t have to keep adjusting anything
What I didn’t like:
- That you have to sign up for the service (only because I will have to keep remembering to skip or cancel every month…although, you can do it right away)
- That the outfits are priced cheaper. There were some pieces that I would have liked to mix and match, but then they would have been more expensive.
- You have to spend $49.95 for free shipping.
Would I recommend?
Yes! I really had a great experience with Fabletics. I was not disappointed by anything I got, and in fact, was really impressed. I’m wearing my awesome jacket today.
Now, this post was not sponsored or endorsed by Fabletics in any way. It’s just something I wanted to try, and share with you. I do, however, have a referral code, if you’re interested in trying it out too. Right now, they are offering 2 pairs of pants for $24 when you sign up…which sounds awesome to me!
Also, as a VIP, you earn 2 points for every dollar you spend, and 20 points for each product review you write on their site. You can start earning free products when you hit 300 points. I’m already halfway there!
