There’s no doubt working out is good for you, but when you don’t fit into the narrow size range of small through large, finding the right gear to sweat in can be a disheartening experience. Luckily, a growing number of fitness apparel companies are offering larger sizes so slim and curvy girls alike can get their sweat on in style. Here, we share 13 brands that offer a wide size range of fashion-forward apparel.
1. Old Navy
Not only does Old Navy offer some of the most affordable fitness gear on the market, but the brand also offers up to a size 4X in their athletic leggings, tops, sports bras, and outerwear. The best part? You don’t have to settle for boring black and grey—Old Navy’s plus size offerings come in neon colors and fun prints, too, like the Go-Dry Fitted Plus-Size Compression Leggings.

The Canadian plus-size fashion brand doesn’t disappoint with its athletic line, Nola. Besides offering the usual leggings and sweat-wicking tops (like the Nola Mesh High Low T-shirt), the brand goes above and beyond to include snow pants, golf polos, and swimsuits. With curvy model icons like Ashley Graham and Jordan Dunn representing the brand, it’s hard to resist purchasing some of Addition Elle’s gear.

At first glance, Kate Hudson’s athletic brand seems exclusively for straight-size women. But think again—the site’s gear goes up to size XXL. The stylish silhouettes offered make going from spin class to brunch easy, and the site even offers dressier athleisure options for a fun rest-day look (hello, mesh skirts and sweatshirt dresses). We love the relaxed, semi-cropped Anya pullover to wear to and from our workouts.
