What Laura loves about her Superfits

"I love Superfit garments because they have enough compression to be helpful during movement, but not so much that it's uncomfortable. I really appreciate that the waistband never rolls down, the pockets can hold my phone, keys, and snacks while I'm out walking, and the quality is SO high. I have had some of my Superfits for years and they look the same as they did when I got them! I also really like knowing that the clothes are made right here in the US. That's something I look for when shopping, but rarely find with companies that sell my size."
