I love activewear. I love it so much, I can’t just wear it to the gym and be done with it. When I’m running errands, walking to the local market, or just lounging around my apartment, there’s a 99% chance I’m doing so in active wear. Workout leggings are my go-to, so naturally, I have high expectations! I want them to last as long as possible, and look cute at the same time. A girl can never have too many pairs of leggings, right? Here are my three favorite activewear brands that I can’t get enough of! What are your favorite activewear brands?
Zella
Zella is Nordstrom’s in-house active wear brand, so you know the quality is going to be top-notch. They are comfortable, fit nicely, and don’t break the bank! They have super cute designs, as well as the basics. Zella clothing is easy to move around in, which makes it ideal for any type of workout. Zella is often found at Nordstrom Rack for even greater deals, which is an added bonus! I may be a little biased because I’ll always be a loyal Nordy’s girl, but Zella gets my number one pick for active wear! Because of their amazing quality, designs, and affordability, they can’t be beat! Below are some of my top Zella picks of the moment (Some of them are on the Anniversary Sale! Shop before August 6th to get the great sale prices!).
Lululemon
Obviously Lulu was going to make the list! Lululemon is top tier quality when it comes to workout clothing. Their leggings are extremely comfortable! They also have fun patterns and designs, as well as more basic pieces. I wore a pair of Lululemon running tights for Bloomsday one year, and they kept me comfortable and cool for the entire 7.46 mile journey! The one complaint I have about Lulu leggings specifically, is the pilling! Around the waistband of a couple of my pairs, I have noticed a little bit of pilling, which is a tad bit obnoxious. I do have one of those de-pilling tools, but I wish I didn’t have to use it. Overall though, the slight pilling is worth the luxurious feeling of slipping into a pair of Lululemon leggings! While their price tag may be a little (or a lot) higher than other brands, they are worth every penny! Below are some of my top Lululemon picks of the moment.
Fabletics
Not going to lie, I signed up for Fabletics for the cute prints! If you’re looking for a cheaper pair of cute leggings, or a workout top, they’ve got you covered! So far, the quality is holding up pretty well for me. I have yet to notice any holes, or pilling at this time, so that is great! Fabletics leggings are a tad bit thinner than Lulu and Zella, therefore I would rank their quality a little bit lower. Regardless, they are still a good, quality brand. To make the already low prices even better, they also feature great sales coming and going constantly! It’s quite the added incentive to shop! Below is a link to join fabletics, and check out their adorable prints!
Love this! I live in activewear and haven’t tried the Zella brand yet… definitely going to check it out. Your picks are great. 🖤

Oh my gosh, you have to try it!! Their “high waisted live in leggings” are AMAZING (I’m talking Lulu quality) and are only like $35 on anniversary right now!
I am always drawn to the fabletics outfits but have been worried about quality! Maybe now I’ll have to check them out.
