There are more and more plus-size activewear brands appearing, giving us more options to find activewear that is both functional and stylish. We rounded up the best of the best, after asking our Facebook community for their recommendations.
Here are our favorite places to shop for plus-size activewear:

Girlfriend Collective
Known for their sustainability efforts, Girlfriend Collective came highly recommended. With every style offered in an array of colors and in sizes XXS - 6XL, and all made out of recycled plastic, it's hard to pass on Girlfriend. Members of our Facebook group mentioned that Girlfriend leggings are completely opaque, making them perfect for a yoga class or a cute athleisure outfit, but maybe not for a high impact workout.

The Dri-FIT Legend Top comes highly recommended.
