YOGASMOGA




Have you guys heard of YOGASMOGA yet? I was lucky enough to get to try out some of these goodies and let me tell you, they are great!

I put the Run Jump 'n play crop (carbon 6/India blue) to the test with a full day of cycling, hiit training, jogging, teaching and practicing yoga. They are very cute, slimming and versatile.  The only caveat I saw was that jogging posed a little problem in holding them up, after wearing them half the day I must have loosened them a little.  I would recommend going tight on these.  The sizes are very true to street sizes unlike most yoga clothes that are much smaller. That is fine for light yoga and errands, but for tough workouts I need a snugger than usual fit.  Next time I will order one size smaller than my own.  I was a tiny bit nervous in sizing just because it is so hard with stretchy clothes. Look at the measurements when determining your size!

I also got to put the U & Me bra (boy blue,top middle photo)  through the ringer with lots of activities. I love the color and the style.  Same goes here though with the size, I wish I would have gone a size smaller than my normal just for more support.  The "girls" liked the comfort though, but with jogging, a second bra was added;)  It is perfect for light yoga, walking and hanging out.

YOGASMOGA also offers the Tippy Toe Leggings, Classic Slimmie Pant (in tall and regular), Yantra Tank, Yoga flops by Rider and mats by Kulae (see my Kulae review here). There are a couple of other offerings as well as some Men's things too.  All in all a cool little company with lots of growth potential. Go check out the website and see for yourself. Watch the Breathe video too if you have a couple of minutes, Some good reminders to stop and breathe!

Thanks for your post about these crops as I was just looking at ordering a few pairs! With regards to sizing, would you say they are comparable to lululemon sizing? Typically I would be a size 6 with lulu crops but just not sure about these. I agree about getting the smaller sizing as I really don't like pants falling down when running. Any advice would be appreciated since they don't do free returns to Canadian customers! Thanks for an awesome blog!

Thanks Jennifer! I also wear a six and wish I would have gone for a four. I do notice myself pulling them up a good deal. Have a great weekend and Namaste, Mandy
