Girlfriend Collective earns largely positive reviews for durable, size‑inclusive activewear with rich colors, supportive Paloma and Tommy bras, and long‑lasting OG/compressive leggings; many say the brand is good and pieces hold up for years. Reviews also flag weaknesses: inconsistent sizing, leggings that can run thick, slide down, or pill/lose shape over time, variable quality across lines, and some styles lacking breathability or support.

Amazing brand mission and the material of the fabric it's great quality. It holds it's shape after many washes!

I love my compressive high-rise leggings; they're really comfortable and also thicker (material), so I feel like they're going to last longer in terms of number of washes and wears. I don't wear my leggings to the gym, but I love wearing them as part of my casual outfits because of how they make my legs look. Also love that they are inclusive with their inseam length options! I'm petite, so finding full length leggings that don't result in scrunching of extra material on the bottom is hard...
I own 3 leggings and one bike short and have had them since they first started. Can’t recommend enough.

I like the look of the leggings and ordered two pairs. One pair got a hole in the knee pretty early on and the fit is a little bit more constricting than desired for working out. They didn’t stay up too well while working out either.
Feedback
The fit is too constricting and the material is not as comfortable compared to other brands.
I've had hit+misses at GF Collective. I've loved every sports bra I've gotten from them, they offer the perfect amount of support and come in such beautiful colors. Their lightweight fabric line is incredibly soft and buttery – can seriously wear these sports bras every day!! I also love the cropped puffer jacket, the crop and color are perfect, providing warmth with a more refined tailored look. I will say that I've had more misses with their leggings/biker shorts. The hip/crotch area never fits right. When I size up the leg area fits great, but there's bunching and strange gaps in the waist area, but when I size down, everything is way too tight. I've had this experience with both the leggings and the biker shorts (I haven't tried their running shorts so I can't speak about those).
Love this brand! They have amazing products and are so comfy
Love this brand! They have so many sizes and styles available, plus they always use diverse models which I appreciate. Also they seem legitimately sustainable (or as sustainable you can be under capitalism) unlike other brands who try and greenwash.
found the black high-waisted compressive leggings. no longer needed to search for any other leggings
Feedback
occasional supply/stock issues, but it seems to be the cost of actual sustainability.
Girlfriend has been a go-to for activewear for me. I love the leggings and bike shorts. The bike shorts do stretch out a bit, but I've had them for over two years and they're still in good condition!
The best activewear brand on the market by far! Aside from being size inclusive, the quality is unmatched and the styles are super flattering. I have over 20 pieces from girlfriend and I wear them on a regular basis. Not to mention my first ever pair of leggings from them I received before the company even launched to the public (when they were sending out free leggings to people to get their name out you just had to pay for shipping) which was many moons ago and they are still in perfect condition after being washed and worn hundreds of times. So very well worth the price in my opinion, unlike other brands whose activewear starts to pill and fall apart after a few washes. I also love how sustainable they are and how all of their products are made from ethically sourced recycled materials. A forever favorite.

Nothing at all!

I have leggings and biker shorts from this brand that I LOVE. I’ve had them for about a year and they still are super stretchy and not pilling like other leggings I’ve had in the past. Thiccc thighs certified.
Feedback
However, if you have a larger chest, the tops offer almost no support. I like to wear them around town when I’m doing errands and not work out in them like you’re supposed to
I am a bit obsessed with these leggings. The fabric they use is really supportive and after 6+ years still hasn't worn down in the thigh area like I'm used to. They have a wide variety of colors and sizes and they keep coming up with cooler styles. They also fit multiple lengths because I'm 4'9" and I don't have to roll them up at all. I have bought multiple sets and intend to continue supporting this awesome company
Feedback
More top styles for larger busts but smaller rib cages. I want to buy all of the tops and bras but the three styles I tried haven't fit right and either squeeze too much or not at all.
High quality and comfortable
I have the skort and biker shorts and absolutely LOVE them. They fit so well! I am a curvy person who has trouble finding clothes that fit me, but Girlfriend has the perfect fit. I am already wanting to buy more! Their sizes are inclusive and have so many options!
I have two dresses, a sweat set, and a skirt/ tank set from GF Collective. I adore their clothing. The clothes come at a sort of steep price point but I prefer to pay more knowing my clothes are ethically sourced and made. The dresses are magnificent, I always wear them to run errands. I also love working out in them since they have built-in shorts. Every time I wear their clothes I get loads of compliments. I always buy from them when there is a sale. Hands down, they are my favorite athletic wear company. They have a big range of sizing and diverse models.
Feedback
I honestly don't think there is anything that could be improved.
the products feel nice fabric and texture wise, but the sizing to me was really confusing. I had ordered sports bras and could not figure out the correct sizing and the straps were uncomfortable so I had to return. I did order a pair of leggings and bike shorts that are nice. I find myself having to pull them up a lot despite being a little tighter. I wish I had ordered the pair with pockets.

Great variety of colors and styles (and website models!). I like their mission and they use the incredibly convenient Happy Returns. The tops and leggings I've ordered are comfortable with a little extra firmness.
Feedback
I find I always have to size up from my usual size when I get something from their site, but luckily I was able to tell beforehand because their sizing charts are pretty accurate.

the best activewear!! the leggings are literally perfect they hold you in without being extra tight! I live in the bras.
The best leggings I've ever owned. The highest quality, most durable fabric of any brand I've tried. I wish they came in more cuts/different waistlines! Love the brand's mission and focus on sustainability.
I have ordered leggings and underwear from this company and I love them both! The material is high quality and feels great. Also, I have owned these items for over a year with consistent wear and the products are durable. I love that the brand is size inclusive in both products and their model representation. Definitely better than their competitors!
