Fabletics.. yay or nay?

What the above poster said. I also found the quality of the clothes to be somewhat lacking. I really like Wantable - they have a few different boxes they do, including a fitness one. This one works a bit differently, similar to a StitchFix or Trunk Club model if you're familiar with those. Basically you pay a $20 styling fee a month, they send you a bunch of clothes, and you pay just for what you keep. The $20 styling fee works as a credit toward any purchases you make, and if you keep a few things you get a pretty significant discount.

Some of the stuff is a little pricey, but I can always send it back. I've also been introduced to a lot of great brands through it, from whom I regularly watch sales from. They also make it really easy to skip a month or cancel without having to call, which is huge for me.

I because of the monthly commitment, there's no way I'd do it . Usually when a company has to force people to stay with them its because they are selling a low quality product with a high price.
If the clothes where really that great, why wouldn't they just let the people order whenever . why do they need a monthly commitment? Same as the just fan shoes, cheap Payless quality .

You wouldn't see a major clothing company with decent products like Ralph Lauren force people to commit to buying monthly because they know their product is good quality. People will come back and buy again.

Think about these mutli level marketing companies like beach body, isagenix and itworks. Same exact thing. Low low quality product, high cost. Forced commitment.


Instead of buying from them , you could easily find good quality workout gear at a discount. I find plenty of nice things like Nike, Marika, under armour at tj maxx or Ross . look for sales, buy your clothes when you want them. Not when a company forces you to

Yikes! I will try canceling in the morning.

I tried one outfit, the first one for $25. Quality of the material was so-so. You have to sign on to your account before the month starts to "skip" getting an outfit automatically sent to you. They send an email at the end of the month which reminds you to "skip." I'll probably cancel my membership too. The clothes at Target are just as fine!

they still charge you even if you skip.just fab did it to me. I skipped in time but they still tried to charge me. only reason they couldnt is because I didnt have any money on my card at the time to cover it.

No I didn't like how misleading the subscription was and quality was subpar. Old navy and gap had less expensive work out gear and quality is fine but nothing beats lulu, athleta, or Nike. You really get what you pay for!

I got my first outfit from Fabthletics and I love the quality! Even better than Nike, plus it's made for a woman's body! I skipped the first month, and plan on doing that until it's time for me to find another cute outfit (hopefully having lost some weight to buy a smaller one).

They didn't charge me for skipping a month either.

Nay, I hated the clothes I got except a sports bra. They try to talk you out of canceling when you call and keep you on the phone forever. I wouldn't do it.

I think I've been a member for about a year. I've only bought 2 outfits. I like all the stuff I got from there, but I just skip the month if I don't see anything I love. Right now I'm holding out for a smaller size.

Victoria's Secret has the best quality by far, IMHO. Full price is steep but they run sales often. Last fall they had a promotion to buy one sports bra and get a pair of workout pants for free. Given the fact that the bras can be around $35.00 and the pants are $65.00 or $75.00 it was a steal! I stocked up during that time.

Xersion brand at JC Penny is good, too, but not near the quality of VS.

Nay. Canceling is similar to what it was like canceling AOL years ago.

I've found the quality to be lacking. An example is I've ordered 2 pairs of long pants, one they only had the regular 28 inseam, and then the other leggings as the short 26 inseam and the shorter ones are actually longer by 3 inches. I'm used to vanity sizing but what's supposed to be a standard measurement. Material gets picky easily (and I wash in cold water and hang dry).

It's also been real easy in the past to skip, but this month they added another confirmation screen so it's added another step (so if you're not real careful, you may not end up skipping and getting charged)

Sports bras have very little support in my experience, sizes get sold out quickly, and they change things without letting people know (like their points system last year: when before it was accumulate 1000 points and get an outfit credit. Now they changed it to get certain items like a shirt for 700 points, and the shirt is in the final close out sale section. They're also doing less performance pieces and more athleisure stuff it seems.

I'm going to call and cancel when I actually have time to sit on hold and then go through the whole script they have to do in order to prevent you from cancelling. I'm also keeping track of the cards to ensure nothing's charged.

Zella is always on sale, almost half off during the Nordstrom anniversary sale.

Lucy does a half off sale around the holidays (these are my favorite).

Or there's always the Nike Employee Store and factory stores (at least in my area).

TJ Maxx is my go to for good quality athletic wear at cheap prices.

I love VS workout wear...if you are looking online, they have a clearance page, and often you can find sports bra's, tee's, leggings for a super deal!
