Do you remember me complaining about my lack of cute workout gear? If not, I’m glad you didn’t notice that I complained. I always have plenty of stuff to run in, but it’s usually old race shirts and shorts or pants I’ve owned for years. For some reason, I never found time (or money) to buy cute stuff for training.
Well, today I want to tell you about a new company I’m excited is going to help me fix that problem….PV Body!
What’s the Deal?
If you haven’t heard of them before, PV Body is a monthly subscription box (a Fit Box) that sends you a fitness outfit that fits your style. For $49.95 a month, each Fit Box contains a top and bottom that is customized to your profile and is valued at over $100! So basically, it’s a new outfit that’s at least 50% off every month!! For someone like me who is in need of cute fitness clothes, this sounds amazing and I jumped at the opportunity to give it a try!!
How do they know your style? You take an online quiz to describe your workout style. The questions are things like:
-
What is your favorite way to stay in shape? I love to run/ I love the gym/ I love yoga/ I love being comfy
-
What style of tops do you like? Racerback/ Fitted/ Cami/ Short Sleeve/ Long Sleeve/ Loose Fitting
-
What color palette do you like? Neutral/ Pastel/ Black-White-Grey/ Bold/ Bright/ Conservative
-
etc….
Once you’ve filled out your profile, you’ll get your first Fit Box customized to your preferences! And if you want to change your preferences every month, you can edit them at any time.
My Experience
My first box came in November and contained long tights by American Apparel and a green cami from Nux. I’m weird about top sizing and the one I got was a little too snug for my liking. . The fun “Be Epic” logo’d shirt fit well though!
This is where things got off to a rocky start. I needed to exchange my top for a larger size, but after numerous emails was getting nowhere. I was ready to give up and move on with life, because I would never endorse a product here that I feel uncomfortable with or wouldn’t buy with my own money.
Then things turned around and I received a special package with a letter of apology, another full bonus outfit, and a Lululemon gift card. Obviously, I would have preferred if everything had gone smoothly from the start, but to see a company admit their mistakes and really make it right is AWESOME! I know that mistakes will happen – it’s how a company deals with them that shows their true nature. PV Body won me over here!
So what was in my second package? A pair of crop tights and racerback top, both from Nux! The tights are something I don’t think I would have picked out myself, but I’m so glad they were picked out for me. The bottom of the pants are finished with ruching, with a wide waistband at the top. My tummy is my least favorite body part and the waistband has a bit of control, which is very flattering!
Both outfits are actually comfortable, cute, and go easily with other things I have!
The Verdict
You’ll notice a new logo in my sidebar for PV Body, because I’ve decided to sign on as a Ambassador! I’m happy to represent a company that not only delivers a quality product that fits me, but also backs it up when mistakes are made. I’m signing up with my own money in January and I’m excited to see what I get next. I’m going to update my profile, just to get more variety in my workouts clothes.
Now here’s the part where you’re going to care…
