Outdoor Voices reviews and discussion

Reviews mention

  • Soft cloudknit fabric loungewear
  • Durable rectrek pants construction
  • Playful, distinctive colorways
  • Thoughtful pockets and details
  • Inconsistent, unreliable sizing
  • Stiff, slipping leggings performance
  • Sweat‑showing, thick fabrics
  • Variable durability in seams

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.

  • High quality for the price and love their comfy, size-inclusive exercise dress.

    Feedback

    I wish they had more color options!

  • clothing runs small, not size inclusive. In 2022, size inclusivity is the bare minimum, and other brands in the space are proving it can be easily done.

  • High quality athleisure, but needs more items and innovation to keep up with brands like Athleta and lululemon

    Feedback

    More colors and designs

  • Love this brand and the quality. My favorite product is their running shorts and tanks, I do find the leggings dont run the same size.

    Feedback

    Sizing, and more color options

  • I tried a few pairs of shorts and tops from Outdoor Voices and adore them. They hold up so well in heat and humidity and are great for regular use. I love the breathable materials used, colors available, and sizing options. The cut and color are modern and reflective of an ethos that someone who cares about their health and fitness without compromising on style would wear.

  • The OV items that I have in my closet are so comfy, but I have had trouble with some items running smaller than expected. Still very cute and comfy once you can figure out your sizing

  • I have purchased products at their stores and online. My favorite products are the ones made with their cloudknit material. The material is so soft and comfy. I have had the all day hoodie and sweatpants for a few years now and they hold up very well to machine washing.

  • Love the vibe of the brand! Definitely has the best exercise dress option and their brick and mortar stores always have amazing sale prices. High quality material at a good price.

    The exercise dress is great as is for everyday athleisure wear, but if you actually want to exercise in it you'll probably have to wear a racerback sports bra underneath.

  • I love my outdoor voices workout set. I think that the quality is extremely high. I love the fabric, color and cut of my leggings and sports bra that I have.

    Feedback

    I would love to see more styles of the workout dresses!

  • I'm in love with Outdoor Voices cloudknit. I have practically every piece of cloudknit they own. It's so soft and comfortable as is a lot of their clothing! Works great for my workouts and comes in some really fun colors!

  • I have been an outdoor voices customer for a while and am such a fan. Their products are one price point below Lululemon and great quality!

  • Super comfortable athleisure. It's simple but with tiny elements of unique flair.

    Feedback

    Pricing is a bit too high

  • I ordered an Outdoor Voices evercise dress and cannot recommend enough. It's the perfect dress for outdoor activities with shorts baked right in!

  • I love the designs, color, and fits of all the products. Definitely a little pricey, but I look at this investment pieces

  • I love outdoor voices. I have a couple of their exercise dresses and some shorts. Amazing company and brand and their clothes are great quality. I get compliments all of the time.

  • Outdoor Voices was one of the workout apparel brands that I discovered when doing research into sustainable brands. Unfortunately I don’t think they are as sustainable as they want to be or seem to be but I do appreciate the effort. From what I ordered the brand can be hit or miss. I absolutely love my hiking cargo pants from them and wear them all the time and give them as gifts to other outdoor friends. But I find that the exercise dress which they are known for tends to fit a bit odd on the top.

  • Agree with the reviews saying their products are hit or miss. There are ones I've loved and gotten tons of wear out of over the years (exercise dress and their leggings in the thinner TechSweat material). Think their thicker fabrics could use some work, at least for bottoms...I find the leggings to be too "pants like". Overall, love the colors and "fun" elements of the brands. Will always have my favorites on rotation in my workout wardrobe.

  • Big fan of Outdoor Voices. I own an exercise dress and a wrap top from the brand. I like the website, it makes it super easy to order the correct size.

    Feedback

    Things are often sold out in the color and size that I'm looking for.

  • Outdoor Voices is a great brand, but I feel like their clothes run a bit bigger compared to other brands. Normally I'm a S, but with OV I order XS. I own an exercise dress and two pairs of shorts which I think are very stylish and cute!

    Feedback

    Have more consistent sizing

  • I didn’t like their leggings, their were too stiff and thick—I do like all of the colors though!
