It’s that time again! I’ve done 4 previous campaigns with Four Athletics and now it’s time to celebrate a 5th! We started with floral leggings, then came out with 6 different pairs of leggings, then matching bras and bottoms, then our last campaign was based around cold weather gear. But this fifth campaign is going to be just a little different. Because instead of coming out with a ton of different pieces like we have in the past, we are only releasing a few items BECAUSE we are going to start releasing apparel MORE OFTEN. Instead of releasing apparel about 3x per year, we will now be releasing activewear every couple months. That means fewer items each campaign but more different types of items to choose from throughout the year. We will be releasing all types of items from leggings to shorts to tank tops, bras, jackets, and more!! This way we can get more creative through the year and take your feedback to continually grow and change with each campaign!!
Now just some background about Four Athletics in case you haven’t purchased any PaleOMG + Four Athletics apparel in the past. Four Athletics was started by four brothers with a passion for fitness and activewear. They needed high quality fitness apparel that could withstand the toughest workouts, but the cost of what was available was out of control. When it comes to retail, the traditional model is costly, inefficient and in desperate need of innovation. Four Athletics set out to solve some of those problems. They use crowdfunding to match up supply and demand 100% of the time. They only make what is wanted, which eliminates waste, cuts out the middleman, and delivers a premium quality product at a fraction of the retail price. It’s more efficient, more responsible, and USA made!
This current campaign will run from today Tuesday February 19th to Tuesday March 5th then this new apparel will be gone! It’s a limited time campaign! Since Four Athletics runs their company through crowdfunding, you won’t get the apparel until the campaign is funded, so keep that in mind. They first find out exactly how many orders are coming in THEN they print them and you’ll receive an email that they are coming your way! Remember, this reduces waste since they are printing as many that are ordered! And don’t worry, if your size doesn’t fit you just right, Four Athletics customer service will do whatever they need to do to make sure you are a happy customer!
Now let’s get to the apparel!! First up, let’s talk about this matching Sangria Real Shine set. This color has been my absolute favorite of the season and the faux leather type look has been everywhere lately. So Four Athletics created the perfect combination of the two. And what I love about this shiny set that it’s not TOO shiny. They have almost a muted matte look to them.
Here’s some quick facts about both pieces –
- The Sangria Real Shine Leggings come in 7/8 length with a 25″ inseam. They have a four-way stretch material with durable flat-lock stitching, which means they are NOT see through. They definitely pass the squat test.
- The Sangria Real Shine Bra is designed for light to high impact movements. The crossing of the straps in the back keeps the bra sturdy and in place throughout any workout but it’s also comfortable enough to wear day-to-day under a cute top!

Now for Black Real Shine Leggings and Black Real Shine Bra! These two pieces are just like the Sangria, but black, duh. It’s the same faux leather look without being TOO shiny. I have so many different pairs of black leggings, but none of them look quite like these!
Here’s some quick facts about both pieces –
- The Black Real Shine Leggings come in 7/8 length with a 25″ inseam. They have a four-way stretch material with durable flat-lock stitching, which means they are NOT see through. They definitely pass the squat test. And they are 79% Polyester and 21% Elastane, and are Bluesign approved!

The crossing of the straps in the back keeps the bra sturdy and in place throughout any workout but it’s also comfortable enough to wear day-to-day under a cute top! The body of the bra is 79% Polyester and 21% Elastane and the Lining is 85% Polyester and 15% Spandex.

Now if you’re trying to find your perfect size, Four Athletics is here to help. They have a super helpful size guide on their site under the description of each piece. When you pull up the size guide, it will compare their size to popular brands such as Alo Yoga, Lululemon, and Athleta. I’m personally a size 4 in Lululemon and I wear a size 4 in Four Athletics, they fit exactly the same for me.
Remember these 4 pieces are only available now until March 5th. Once March 5th rolls around, the campaign will end, then pieces will no longer be available and the number of orders will be printed then sent to you! Four Athletics ships USPS priority flat rate all over the world. Yep, that’s right! Wherever you are, you can get your hands on them! And right now, when you place your order and use the promo code PALEOMG you’ll receive 10% off your order! I hope you guys love the new apparel and don’t worry, we have even more coming in the next couple months!! Can’t wait to show you what’s in store!
This bra looks exactly like the energy bra lulu has had for years. Thoughts?
i’ve personally never purchased one of those bras so i don’t have many thoughts on it haha. i do know that it’s an incredibly comfortable bra that I can wear all day long!
How do these do with showing sweat? I recently bought shiny tights from a very reputable athletic company. I wore them to a workout with a lot of rowing sprint work and thrusters. They stayed in place and were great until I looked down and saw that ALL my sweaty places were three shades darker than the rest of the pants! I know everyone has butt sweat, but I personally don’t want to advertise mine. 🙂 How do these pants hold up? Cause I am loving that sangria color!
well the thing about any sort of color is that it will probably show some sort of sweat, depending on how sweaty of a person you are. sweat pretty much always shows, even on some black at time. i worked out in the sangria in a crossfit workout the other day and had no issue and i had pretty bad swass. not saying that it won’t show sweat though. it really just depends on the person and how they sweat and how much
I am wondering the same about the Sangria Red color and the sweating. Does it easily show?

I’m also curious about how these do with showing sweat! I bought a pair of leggings from one of your previous Four Athletic campaigns (in the gorgeous electric blue color), and they’re super soft and incredibly comfortable, but they turn dark anywhere there’s even a little bit of dampness. I’m really interested in the sangria color, but want to first hear how this new collection handles sweat!

So I got the ombre pants in green and pink last year in a size 8 since I wear lulu size 8 but they were too big. Do you think this material is the same as the ombre ones? Or should I try and size down?
oh man, that’s hard to say and i don’t want to give you the wrong advice. the material is a little different than the ombre ones, but i feel like the fitting is similar. so that’s going to have to be your call!! i wish i could tell you what to order, but i feel like they fit pretty similar
Do the bras have removeable padding like lululemon?
no they do not
I order a the popsicle leggings from this past summer. I wore them once and they were great. After 1 wash, they wouldn’t stay up. I went running in them, and they kept falling down. I haven’t lost weight, and I’m in between sizes, I got a size down so they could be a snug fit. I look is great, but I don’t find them long lasting.
sorry to hear that Krista! i personally haven’t had that experience and continually wear the popsicle leggings often. wish i could solve that issue for you!
Purchased the Sangria legging. Thanks Juli! These photos are great, you look so strong!
woot woot!! hope you love them Jennifer!! and thank you for the kind words!
Ordered the black leggings! Love your style, love your attitude, love your recipes. Love, love, love. Thanks for being you!
awwwwww thanks for the love Anna!! i hope you love them!
I looooooooooove both of these looks! If I am 5′ tall and 100 lbs, will any of the FourAthletics clothing fit me? Especially if you are wearing only 1 size larger and are 7″ taller than me! I generally fit into a size 2 at Lulu but the pants tend to be way, way longer… and I always have to buy crops, never 7/8 lengths.
I’m also super curious about your tattoo!! I’ve never noticed it before until now 🙂
that’s hard to say. it’s definitely a longer length and i know people have had theirs hemmed in the past. but we will definitely come out with shorter lengths like the crop in the future!
