Since I found popfit I no longer have to keep putting my belly back into my pants. They are great!
Before I start, I own about 80 pairs of leggings so I have a little bit of experience with athletic wear. When my leggings arrived they felt very different than I thought they were going to. They were advertised as a "low compression" legging, so I was expecting a buttery soft/plushy feel (think lulu's align or fabletics pureluxe) and they felt like a mix of cardboard and cheap athletic fabric. They didn't fit me well either. I ordered a XS (their smallest size) and I'm usually about a 0-2 and about 5'7". They were wayyy to big practically everywhere and weren't even close to being a full length (when they advertise them being full length on their "6'0" CEO). I'm not sure who this was supposed to fit, but it definitely wasn't me. They also have this huge elastic band that runs along the top of the waistband? Now I'm more of a fan of seamless waistbands but literally everyone I showed the leggings to was weirded out by it. Sometimes you get a small seam or a small band of elastic on the waistband, but TWO INCHES OF ELASTIC? They really don't care about how their leggings feel on, huh? I ended up giving them to my younger sister, I think she liked them.
They were the free legging just pay s&h, which I guess they're worth the $12 shipping? I don't understand the people raving about these, if you're going to pay ~$50 for a legging spend somewhere else. They're definitely not worth that price tag, but if you need some cheap throw away ones the free promo isn't a bad deal. Their advertising is definitely sketchy and whoever runs their PR needs some training. Lots of non-professional replies to criticism/questions on their instagram page. Their ads are also a tad problematic. There is no need to bring other companies down (obv Fabletics w the 2 for 24 (which is a great deal since you're getting REAL athletic leggings, not cardboard)) to bring yourself up. Especially when you push a membership of your own during checkout. Now, I'm a Fabletics member, so you bet your butt I read those terms and conditions to make sure they weren't putting me in a membership regardless. The last thing I want is these at my door every month.
Also, they only include positive reviews (4+ stars) on their website reviews tab. With over 50 pages of customer reviews you'd think there would be a handful of lower scores. But nope, they only show the super positive reviews. When I asked about why they do that on their instagram, my comment was deleted and I was blocked. If you can't answer a simple question, something sketchy is going on somewhere behind the scenes. So many larger companies make negative reviews accessible, why doesn't PopFit? (Hint: It's because they wouldn't have a business if they did)
PS: Size inclusivity goes both ways. If your smallest size is too big on someone who's ~130lbs, you're doing something wrong. There are plenty of companies with TRUE size inclusivity and body positivity out there, go support them instead!
For a business that claims 100% satisfaction guaranteed, they have been quite a letdown.
They run a scam; they said the leggings were free yet I was charged $20 dollars for them. They utilize a $12 s&h fee, and decided to randomly put my discounted bra as another order - charging me ANOTHER $12 fee, even though I received all three items in one package. When I contacted them about this, they gave me a lecture about not being able to get a refund, even partial, because of this *totally amazing offer*.
Well it's not amazing, and I can tell you precisely why it's a waste of money. The clothes are extremely poor quality as far as workout clothes go, and they make me itch, within a minute of putting them on. Yes, the designs are cute - but the clothes are not geared towards an average physique. Even though I measured myself using their item's measurement descriptions and my items should have fit perfectly, they were all too big or too small. The bra's inserts are quite lumpy, and one of my items came USED; the sports bra I bought came with a deodorant stain on it. Odd, since I don't use deodorant until the middle of the summer, so it couldn't have been me.
When I contacted them about this, they waited until just after the 24-48 hour response period (also conveniently putting them JUST outside of the 3 day window I had to raise any concerns of mine, after my item came), and told me that for a $6 restocking fee, and $12 s&h, I could get another size. So basically, I had to purchase another pair? No thank you!
I'm contacting my bank today, for an immediate chargeback, so that they don't get their money. I've work in customer service before, so I am usually quite patient with mistakes, whether they be in my order or financially. I can't help but feel as though this is a scam, since I came to this page from Instagram, and conveniently, their terms were not viewable on such.
DO NOT use this company - if you need a pair of cheap leggings, head over to TJ Maxx, Marshalls, etc., as they have much better quality for the same price! Even Target doesn't stoop this low for it's product quality. It's such a shame, as I'm glad to see a variety of shapes/sizes in their workout clothing - something that is most definitely missing from the market. Yet the quality is so poor, I wouldn't recommend ANYbody buy these, even if you're having a hard time finding something.
