Do NOT purchase from these people. I bought two pairs of skirt that was marked as final sale from them after carefully reading the description and positive reviews. Turned out that basically everything I read was a lie. For example, the skort does NOT run large as stated, instead, they were laughably undersized. They also only posted positive reviews dating back to last year. When I tried to post my honest negative review, they did not post it at all. The company is clearly deceitful and is trying to remove overstocked items by providing misleading information.

They started charging a “restocking fee” for returns…. cool? So what are we supposed to do when sizing charts don’t match products at all…. My size in this brand varies by product! Used to be decent, now overpriced, WEIRD body fit—-like huge poofy boob spaces in the sports bras!!!! Reminds me of She-in, bad quality, and bad policy.

I hate the current version of this place. They used to be amazing but during their restructuring they swapped to cheap fabric for their cloudknit line. I tried to make it work but it's unwearable - absolute garbage in terms of durability and feel. It's like some thin poly that hangs to every part of your body. The heavier weight of the old version of cloudknit made it work. I'm done with this store. A Los Angeles Apparel (same owner of old American Apparel) just opened up a few blocks away so thank god I have a place to buy reliable sportsware (particularly shirts) consistently. If you go back to your old fabric, let me know. Otherwise nice knowing you and thanks for several years of good clothing.

Great running shorts. Light material, doesn’t stick upon sweating. I wear it for runs and the beach. Only small complaint is the pocket is a bit shallow for a large phone. Good brand, would buy another color.

Do NOT order from this company. Clothes are toxic and absolutely do not wick. I ordered items that were not returnable, and OV refused to take them back, even though they were never worn and still had tags. No offer, no apologies. The sizes are ALL OVER THE PLACE! Fit is horrible. Save your money. Go to Target, and stay far away from these China-made, toxic, ill-fitting, and very unflattering exercise clothes—cheaply made, too.

They got people to love their “cloudknit” material and still sell products with that naming convention, except they cheaped out and the products are now grossly inferior and more expensive, again still labeled as the original product. I loved this brand and now I’ll never waste another dollar there. My original CloudKnit sweatpants lasted roughly 5 years, the ones I bought two weeks ago won’t last two months…

Always positive and solution-focused

**2/5 Stars - Major Design Flaw Makes This Unwearable for Its Intended Purpose** I purchased the Outdoor Voices Energy Dress based on their marketing as "engineered for movement" in "breathable performance material." Unfortunately, this dress has a critical flaw that makes it unsuitable for any actual athletic activity. **The Problem:** The LightSpeed fabric becomes completely see-through when you sweat. I wore this dress to play tennis and was mortified when it became sheer from perspiration. This is particularly problematic for a dress specifically marketed for exercise and movement. **The Fabric:** While the A-line silhouette and built-in shorts are nice design elements, the fabric fails at its most basic function. A "performance material" should perform during exercise, not become transparent when doing exactly what it's designed for. **Customer Service Experience:** When I contacted Outdoor Voices about this issue, they acknowledged my feedback but refused to accept a return, citing their policy against returns for "worn" items. This seems unreasonable given that the problem only becomes apparent when the dress is used as intended. The representative suggested I "find a good home" for the dress rather than addressing the fundamental design flaw. **Bottom Line:** Save your money. A dress marketed for exercise that becomes see-through when you exercise defeats its entire purpose. The company's unwillingness to stand behind their product when it fails to perform as advertised is equally disappointing. **Would not recommend for:** Tennis, running, or any activity involving perspiration **Might work for:** Casual wear only, in air-conditioned environments
