Favourite Product: Overfit Organic Joggers
“The Overfit Organic Joggers are sooooooo comfortable. What I love about the Organic Cotton Range is the oversized fit and the comfort of the fit. Sometimes I find the Defy Joggers hug too close to my body but the script range is another level! I tend to size down one size vs what I would wear on the defy range as my legs are a little shorter, I don’t want to get the bunch up at the bottom. But if you want some room in the quads and a pair of joggers that you feel like you never want to take off, the Organic Cotton Range is my go-to for sure”

Favourite Product: All Crew Necks, but especially the FLX Crew!
“The hoodies are the best in the game, but I loved when the FLX Crew came out. It's heavyweight and slightly oversized and the black on black look makes it easy to wear both in and out of the gym.
Small Tip - If you train in a gym with no heating and want a Bar Grip to keep you warm, go for the Crew Neck Bar Grips. They are better than the hoodies for benching as there isn’t a hood that gets in the way. The FLX Crew is a Non Bar Grip but the Bar Grips Crew Necks would be my go to when training in a crossfit type box!

Favourite Product - Emerald IPF Approved Collection
“I competed in the Emerald Collection at the British Masters in June and OMG I LOVED IT! The green colourway is just another one to add to the collection. I love the contrast between the white and the dark green and having some Irish Heritage this was the PERFECT choice for me. If you are looking at the IPF Collections, especially the knee sleeves and wrist wraps, make sure to browse our guides on what might be best for you. These helped me a tonne when trying to figure out what may work best.”

Favourite Product: Defy Joggers
“The Defy Joggers are so underrated for the 360-degree movements. In CrossFit, you need to move in all directions and these joggers are the best for lunges, front squats, burpees, deadlifts and even cleans and snatches. I love that they don’t snag or restrict me no matter what size I wear. If you want a pair of joggers that are almost like thick leggings, then try sizing down one size vs what the chart says. If you want them to fit loose, just size up. They are so versatile I can wear anything between a medium and an XL at 88kg and still feel like I am in the correct sizing!”

Favourite Product - XO Women's Leggings
“The Merlot Colourway is probably my favourite (or the steel grey). While not a powerlifter myself, I love my running and competed in multiple long-distance events and the comfort of the XO leggings makes them the only ones I will wear these days. An added bonus is there are 7/8th lengths, so if you are a little bit shorter in the leg and struggle to find leggings that are the right length for you. Give these a go, they may just surprise you!
LONG LEGGED GALS - Try our HEW Leggings. These are an updated version of the XO’s and were built with you in mind. You will find them a little more high rise than the XO and a little more suited to your leg length ❤️”
