Superfit Hero plus size leggings made the New York Times Wirecutter list of Best Leggings again! For the third year in a row! This is huge for a brand as small as ours. We are the ONLY indie women-owned brand on the list. We are also the only brand to offer our inclusive size range. Here's a link to their review: nytimes.com
Excerpts below:
Supportive and flattering, the Superfit Hero Superhold Pocket Ankle Leggings are a strong choice for plus-size people. (Superfit Hero transitioned to selling exclusively plus and extended sizes in late 2020.) These medium-weight leggings are thick yet breathable, with a high waist and roomy side-drop pockets.
They come in the highest range of sizes of all the leggings we tested. Available in sizes L (12 to 14) to 7X (40 to 44), the Superhold Pocket leggings cater to an under-serviced cohort. Our size-16-to-18 tester, who tried them in a size 2X, praised the quality feel of the thick fabric, and this tester mostly liked the fit, though the waist was a bit snug. (Of the more than 300 reviews on the company’s website, the majority are five-star ratings.)
They come in three lengths. The Superhold Pocket Ankle Leggings have a 29-inch inseam, which is full-length. But if you’d prefer, these are also available in a 26-inch length and a 20-inch capri version. (Our 5-foot-2, 2X tester liked the capris.)
The fabric is pleasingly compressive. Smooth, dense, and soft, with a decent amount of stretch, these leggings offer a held-in feel that isn’t a squeeze. “I really love these,” said one 5-foot-10 tester, who wore a size L. “They sit right where they’re supposed to on my size 12/14 waist and don’t fall down, even while power walking.”
All exercise feels good in this pair. These leggings strike a nice balance between ready to sweat and ready to recover. They felt great during serious workouts (a 45-minute indoor cycling class, a 3-mile run) and less-intense sessions. The two side drop-pockets are conveniently positioned, and they hold their contents securely; we didn’t experience any pulling at the waistband while in motion.
