Reviews mention

  • Stylish, fashion-forward designs
  • Soft, tactile fabrics
  • Long-lasting, wash-durable pieces
  • Flattering, sculpting silhouettes
  • Inconsistent, unpredictable sizing
  • Limited bust-support sports bras
  • Leggings slip, uneven compression
  • Occasional pilling and stretching

Alo earns strong reviews for stylish, durable athleisure—leggings, hoodies, bike shorts, and pieces like the Airlift and Airbrush lines often fit smoothly, wash well, and draw compliments—yet the brand divides on performance and consistency. Reviews also flag frequent sizing inconsistencies, limited support for fuller busts, some pilling or fabric changes over time, and polarizing leggings that can slip or lack compression, alongside criticism of sustainability transparency and customer service—making Alo great for chic everyday wear, less reliable for intense training or curvy fits.

  • My experience was in-store. Staff were very helpful + the whole store had a great energy to it. Expensive, however I do really love their pieces - it makes me want to work out!

    Bring a store to the UK!

  • Adore the leggings from here. Wish they had more diversity in their photography, etc. however. I also got a subscription to their workout app and it's honestly incredible. It has TONS of workouts across all varieties and intensities. It has great series to spread out over weeks, and allows you to track your progress. The app is a great extension of their brand!

    Pricey :/ And they also only ever show the skinniest of people - it's kind of ridiculous

  • I have the sherpa jacket from here, and it's probably my most comfortable item of clothing!

    Feedback

    Sizing - the xs is massive (and I'm not super small!)

  • Their fabric is so smooth! I often go to HIIT classes but my sweat never shows on the fabric! Their design is so classy and cute. I own so many pairs of their work out outfit! I get a lot of compliments when i wear it

  • Comfortable, washes well, no pilling, expensive but durable

  • I love alo, don't get me wrong. They have very high quality clothing and amazing youtube videos, but I can't get over how overpriced they are. Imagine being more expensive than lululemon just because you've become trendy... anyways, that's the only real reason i'm taking away a point.

  • It has a nice design; however, it’s not as comfortable. I had high hopes for this brand but it did not meet my expectations. Also price is a bit high for an activewear

  • Love ALO, the material is so soft and is not see through. It can be very expensive but find that there products last forever. I really appreciate their sweatsuits and hope that they get new colors soon!

  • I love this brand. Every product I have gotten is so comfortable and durable. I love the sweatshirts as they are very comfortable and don't lose their fluff and fit.

  • Love Alo’s big range of beautiful color palettes! It’s just so much fun visiting Alo’s local store because they change the window display at least every 3~4 weeks. I especially like their hoodies and jackets. They have nice flattering cuts and cute designs that motivate me to go exercise in a gym! Wish they make a wider opening hooded crew in the future though.

  • Great alternative to anything at Aritzia that's a little too expensive. The tennis skirt has a very similar, almost softer texture, in comparison to the Aritzia tennis skirt and the price is more acceptable. The colors are also super fun and constantly change so there's always something new to shop for.

  • Definitely expensive and I don’t love the fit on some of their staples, but when they hit they hit. The quality is good as well, I haven’t had any issues with longevity.

  • High-quality, great feel and amazing looks. I'm a huge fan of Alo. But shopping Alo can break the bank - I wish it was more affordable.

  • My favorite matching sets are from alo. One is a leggings/sports bra combo. I have it in lavendar and get so many compliments on it. The other is a sweatshirt/sweatpants combo. I wear it all the time around the house and it's my favorite outfit to travel in. Super high quality. I've had both for over a year and there are no signs of wear despite wearing each at least 1-2 times per week.

  • Very high quality yoga mat that is thick and offers good traction. Clothing is great for an athleisure setting. It is definitely on the pricier side, but I think you are paying for quality.

  • Generally a fan - from clothing, marketing, community and classes. I love how it goes beyond just athleisure clothing to a fitness & lifestyle hub. In terms of their clothing specifically however, I find the fit & quality is a bit of a hit or miss. The regular sales make the purchase really worth it, but wouldbe great if they can offer free international returns.

  • I have a pair of Alo leggings that I have had for maybe 3 years now and they look literally brand new. The lettering has shown absolutely no signs of coming off, the blackness of the leggings has not faded & the leggings have not lost their shape or anything like this. It definitely is a bit on the pricey side, but completely worth it (for their leggings this is my advice, but other items I would assume the same)

    Feedback

    I think it can be pricey, especially if trying to buy a few items at once. That being said, in my experience, the clothes do last and become a staple in your workout wardrobe.

  • Love all of their products. They hold up extremely well in the wash. I find their leggings run a little large - compared to other legging brands. I always get compliments on my outfits when I wear my Alo gear.

    Their hats are also a great everyday staple. Fit nice and look good on everyone.
