Itโ€™s a new year, which, if youโ€™re plus size, oftentimes comes with the idea of weight loss. Luckily, weโ€™ve come a long way since making weight and New Yearโ€™s resolutions synonymous, but larger bodied folks still need plus size activewear to participate in joyful movement. Enter indie plus size activewear.ย 

Indie plus size brands make finding workout clothes a helluva lot easier.ย  With indie plus size brands, thereโ€™s always been less pressure to make activewear about weight loss.

Bigger brands are just now hopping onto the size-inclusive bandwagon in the activewear industry (even though some still arenโ€™t โ€“ looking at you adidas x IVY PARK). However, smaller brands have been doing the work to sell plus size activewear for years. You can also feel good knowing youโ€™re supporting family and friend-owned businesses.ย
