Next Active Wear Review | Discover The Best Activewear For 40+ Women

I am on the hunt to discover the best activewear for 40+ women. We want to feel good and kinda hang onto some trends without wearing crop tops or butt scrunching leggings. In this post I will be doing an Next active wear review after it was highly recommended when I asked my audience where they are getting their active wear from.

I’m working on creating a directory of reviews, and so you can see the full list of reviews here and I will be sure to keep these posts updated as I go along.

Best Workout Clothes For Older Women

In the below video you can see my full try on haul.

What can I say, I am a sucker for some leopard print. I sized down this time and got these in a medium and as a UK size 14 they fit me well. Also wearing the pink long sleeve. I wear this regularly and I love it as a super lightweight top

Next Active Wear Sizing

The main thing I have to note is the variability in sizing. Some items fit fine, yet others were so big and so if you are ordering online I would definitly opt to get a couple of size oiptions.

I am usually around a UK size 14. When shopping in places like Zara or H&M I am normally a L-XL, yet in these Next sizes I bought a large for most items, though I really should have sized down.

I have more recently gone on to re-order the leopard print leggings in the new lighter shade and have sized down and gone with a medium and they fit great.

Product Range

I really liked a lot of the range, though I did find that a lot of sizes were already sold out. Next do restock items, but it’s not on a set schedule, so it’s more of a matter of checking back in or going into store to find sizes in certain items when you can.

I felt some items had a great range of patterns and colours, whilst other items were a little limited.

All of the items felt nice in terms of quality and were super lightweight.

Pricing

I feel that the items are a great price for the quality. Some items felt really nice quality, though I can’t comment on their durability at this moment. I have kept one top at the moment, so will let you know how that fairs up.

Though I would definitely look at getting some basic tanks as I think they are really well priced.

I feel Next have a great selection, reasonable prices and seem to be good quality from what I felt. Be careful with sizing, but I will definitely be looking at buying some more of their Next active wear range in the future.
