Outdoor Voices earns mixed reviews: the brand delivers soft, durable lounge and athleisure standouts like CloudKnit joggers, RecTrek pants, and the iconic Exercise Dress, but performance pieces—especially many leggings and some bras—feel stiff, slip, or show sweat, and sizing runs inconsistent. Reviews of Outdoor Voices also flag variable quality and fit (plus-size and petite needs unmet), while praising unique colorways, thoughtful details (pockets, adjustable straps), and long-wearing fleece and basics; great for everyday movement and errands, less reliable for high‑intensity workouts.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Have been a longtime OV customer, really enjoy the exercise dress and mesh tanks and running shorts. Wish they had a legging comparable to Lululemon Nulu, and had tried a little harder to create great swimwear.

Really good quality clothing. Worth spending the extra money and also very flattering material used
I’ve purchased quite a few things from OV since late 2018, and to date I’ve been impressed with the solid quality and design of everything I own. Their fleece pieces (megafleece) are really amazing and durable, and the brand makes great basics for everyday recreation. I’m not a huge gym-goer, so I can’t recommend the leggings or bras for anything outside of a short walk or hike, but the pieces are so cute that I wear them to run errands and as part of my day-to-day outfits.

More inclusive, consistent sizing – I find myself having to switch between S/M which is pretty normal, but the bottoms can be tricky.

I have around 5-6 items from OV and really enjoy their clothes. My first pair of leggings from them lost their stretch quite quickly and would fall down, but since they've adjusted their waist bands I have loved their most recent pairs. Plus, can't go wrong with the exercise dress!
I have a dusty rose exercise dress that is comfortable and works for me. I do recommend sizing down.
I have the exercise skort, which is very cute for the warmer months for a sporty/casual outfit.
Feedback
Wrinkles easily and it seems more stretched out than when originally purchased, I am not sure how much longer it it'll last. Would rather purchase something higher quality at this price point.
I shopped at Outdoor Voices at its peak in the mid-2010s because it was heavily trending at the time. I have also been gifted product as an influencer. As much as the colorways are super fun, the fabric isn't actually best for any type of fitness (running, yoga, HIIT, etc.). It really is meant for "Doing Things" like walking your dog, going to Target, and things of the like.
Feedback
I haven't shopped here in a while, so there may be different sizing options now, but this brand doesn't quite fit people with shorter legs or torsos. The proportions of crop tops and 7/8 leggings are awkward for anyone under ~5'5".
This is hands down my favorite workout gear. I don't know why Lululemon gets all the hype when Outdoor Voices exists! OV's crop tops and bras are well made and hold up to intense workouts and cleanings (you're not supposed to, but I put my OV items in the dryer and they've held up really well over the years).
Love their leggings, cotton clothes (like tshirts), fleece jackets, and the collab shoes with Hoka One One. Everything is super comfortable, well fitting, and durable
Love their leggings, so comfortable!
Outdoor Voice apparel does that it promises. Good quality and nice fit.
I got a pair of super cute hiking shorts here and some socks. Both were great quality and the in-store shopping experience was great. Also, I love the branding and feel of the company.

I wish there were more color choices
I am an OG customer of OV and a huge fan and follower. In particular, my exercises dresses and an older waterproof jacket I use as my rain jacket are my favorite purchases.

OV legging fit and comfort could use some work. That’s one product I prefer to purchase from competitive brands.

I revamped my workout closet this year. This is the perfect gift to myself so I can feel cute this motivated to hit the gym. Love the fabric feel and texture.
Feedback
Sometimes sizes run small. Usually I’m bras I needed to size up.
I used to wear OV religiously at the gym when it first came out. In the start they really seemed to fill a gap in the market for tasteful and affordable athleasure. However over time I realized how unflattering their cut and fabrics were for us curvier ladies leaving you feeling like a sausage stuffed in a not so stretchy casing. Even their more flexible fabric, which I admit is very comfy, wasn’t the most flattering cut on the body. I do think their sports bras are fantastic for support!

Better color choices.

I have loved this brand since its inception! What drew me in was the branding, I had never connected or felt accepted with an activewear brand until OV. What kept me are the textiles. The fabrics used have a beautiful feel and hold up very well. I am enjoying all the new styles and colors they have been launching.
WORKOUT DRESS EVERYDAY ALL DAY. When I say I wear my workout dress everyday, I'm not kidding. ( & yes I wash it) It is so flattering and can be paired with just about every piece of clothing in your closet. It makes me feel put together with how effortless it is! I want one in everycolor.
Their clothing is amazing, and I love their branding. It’s super high quality and I think it’s worth the price.
