I’m in My Workout Era, Here’s Everything I Loved From BetterMe Activewear

By Retail Verdict Editorial · Last Updated August 2026 

August isn’t the obvious moment for a workout reset, but here we are: my reformer membership lapsed in April, and this BetterMe activewear review is what came out of rebuilding the habit at home instead. I train at home four or five times a week: mostly Pilates and weights on a mat, with a long walk on the days in between. That means I’m not dressing for a studio or a class, so what I want from activewear is fairly simple. A waistband that stays put through floor work. Fabric that holds up when I fold forward. Pieces I don’t have to adjust mid-session. Those were the three things I judged everything in this review against.

So I wanted to test BetterMe properly: pieces that look considered and still behave when nobody’s watching. Its coaching app has lived on my phone for two years, and when the store’s leggings started trailing me around Instagram I was curious and a little wary app brands branching into clothing usually means logo sweatshirts. Then a woman from my old studio turned up in the chocolate capris and told me she’d worn them three times that week. That was enough.

BetterMe Store is the activewear and clothing line attached to a much larger wellness ecosystem, with health-coaching and mental-health apps, a fitness tracker, a smart scale, equipment and supplements all under one roof. The clothing is broader than I expected: leggings, capris, sports bras, tops, jackets, hoodies, joggers, shorts, dresses, catsuits, shapewear and jeans, sorted into edits like Gym Girl, Pilates Princess, Catline and Everyday Basics, plus a Gamut-certified Adaptive Collection. Aesthetically it’s earthy neutrals ivory, chocolate, mocha, beige, black with pinks, blues, greens and yellows for anyone who finds that dull. Clothing runs roughly $19 to $89, and the sale section means full price is often optional.

For context, I’m 5’6″, usually a US 8, and a medium in most tops. I tried everything in a medium and it was accurate throughout, though the compression styles have a firm, held-in feel, so go up a size if you prefer more give. The women’s range spans XS to 2XL, and the BetterMe size guide lists measurements per garment rather than one blanket chart worth two minutes of your time when you’re shopping online. Good to know before you order: the returns policy gives you 30 days, and since sizes are swapped by returning and reordering rather than exchanging, it’s worth measuring your waist and hips first and starting with one or two pieces before you commit to a full set. I styled each look in coordinated colorways and reviewed every piece with pros and cons.
