SizeUp Apparel. An honest review.

6 Comments / Fitness / By

Last week I received an email from sizeupapparel.com asking for a product review. I usually get some of these but when I answer them noticing that I live in Spain, they always apologize telling me that they only ship to the US, Canada…

As you know, I live in Spain and sometimes it is difficult to find companies from the other side of the world that ships to my country. This time was different, and here´s the good news: they ship worldwide!

While they sent my order, I did some search on the company to be able to offer you some valuable information. It´s a company based in Michigan, USA founded in 2011 by Chase Campbell, a 19-year-old entrepreneur. I think that´s really cool, isn´t it? You can read more about it here.

We all love to buy new clothes. It gives us extra motivation. There are numerous companies that are coming up with new clothing and new fabrics almost every day so, it becomes difficult for us to choose the correct brand of clothing. And I’m going to tell you this, SizeUpApparel really deserves that you give it a chance.

I thought the shipping time would be the first thing I would write down on the list of cons, but I was totally wrong. Not only that, the shipping is very fast. I received my order in just three days. I usually buy online from big brands like Nike or Adidas, who ship their products to Spain from Netherlands and Germany, respectively, and the shipments take 5-7 days minimum. So, this was another great and positive surprise.

I got 3 items: a training hoodie, a tank top, and a pair of joggers.

The clothes are also unusually affordable. For tanks, shoppers can pay as little as $19.99. At other brands, the same shoppers might pay closer to $50. Joggers go for as little as $29.99. Plus, they look really good.

Good quality of the fabrics, they feel soft and they also are great for an intense workout. And here´s an example: Yesterday was chest and shoulder day so, I recorded a short video doing some exercises… Chest press, flyes, lateral raises…

The hoodie and the joggers fit perfect, and the comfort level is amazing. I also did some leg exercises to test the joggets to the fullest: they stay tight at the waist, and you can move comfortably up and down doing squats or lunges.

From my personal perspective, SizeUp clothing meets expectations and can be compared to other major brands. Without a doubt, I will become a regular customer. The decision is yours, but I would consider them the next time I go to buy clothes for training.

If you find something you like, I have a surprise for you. use the code CHAPE20 and you will get a 20% discount.

    Hello Chape! I’m surprised that the clothes reached you so fast, being that they were shipped from across the Atlantic ocean. I’ll definitely look up Sizeup, since Michigan is right next to my own state.

      It was a nice surprise for me too. Shipping was even faster than most national shipments. Btw, don´t be impressed with the extremely muscular men on their web, hahaha! Size S suits me perfectly and make me look bigger ;)
