Wantable Fitness Subscription Service Review – April 2015

Wantable Fitness is a fitness styling subscription service (similar to Stitch Fix). You fill out an in-depth survey about your fitness clothing preferences, and your stylist picks out items for you.

The fee for this service is $20 a month, and that fee goes toward whichever items you choose to keep. If you keep 3 or 4 items you also get a 20% discount, and if you keep all 5 items you get a 30% discount.

Wantable sent me this box for review purposes. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).

The Subscription Box: Wantable Fitness

The Cost: $20 for the styling fee plus the cost of clothing.

The Products: 5 athletic wear pieces selected by a stylist based on your preferences. Keep 3 or more pieces save 20%, Keep all 5 save 30%

Ships to: US

Here is my order invoice. The merchandise total is $372 and the keep-all discount is $111.60, so factoring that in plus the $20 credit, this box would cost $260.40 to keep all five items. (Roughly $52.80 an item).

These are my preferences for the Fitness subscription.

Colosseum Circuit Tank in Red Ruby – Cost to Keep $59

I really like this tank. It has thick, padded straps, which makes it a more comfortable than some of my workout tops with thin straps. It has a built-in bra with removable cups, moisture wicking technology, and the stripe under the bra is mesh to give you a little more ventilation.

Colosseum Perfect Fit Training Leggings – Cost to keep $69

I love the red stitching detail on these leggings. (I tend to always grab black bottoms for workouts, but I like them to have a little design).

And these leggings have a zipper pocket at the back:

These leggings are high-compression (a good thing for me), and the fabric is lightweight/thin too. (AKA – motivation for me to workout more so I look better in them!)

Luxe Transition Hoodie – Cost to Keep $125

I actually received this hoodie before in the first Wantable Fitness box I reviewed. (I wouldn’t hold the duplicate item against Wantable since that box was sent for review purposes a while ago. If this was a continuing subscription I was paying for I would definitely reach out to customer care though).

This is a great hoodie – and it’s one of those pieces if I saw online I would say there’s no way it is worth $125, but after trying it on, it was hard to take off! It’s a thick fabric, and it somehow manages to be amazingly cozy/comfortable and also flattering.

Climawear Seamless Nordic Hoodie in Red – Cost to Keep $50

I’m pretty torn on this item. I suspect it ended up in this box since it looks like they were going for a black/red theme (which I appreciate). However, this is the type of item I would expect to receive in a November or December box – not an April one!

Seasonal issues aside, I love the idea of a festive/seasonal workout top – I don’t have anything like it. And it’s very comfortable, and I love how the neckline on the hoodie drapes.

Colosseum Metric Elite Sprint Legging – Cost to Keep $69

The bold print on these leggings is fun, but with the white fabric you have to pick your underwear wisely! It has the same back pocket too:

Verdict: In past Wantable Fitness boxes, I had difficulty finding some of the items for sale online, and wondered if they were older stock. (Since this is a full price subscription, I want everything to be new stock). I’m happy to see that with this box, 4 out of the 5 items are in stock online at the full prices listed by Wantable. (The Colosseum Metric Elite Sprint Leggings even show up on Colosseum’s New Arrivals Section).

I think this subscription is for someone who wants the convenience of trying on items at home with a super easy returns process and would also value the opportunity to discover new workout clothing brands. It’s a specific demographic, but I think Wantable has been improving these boxes over the past few months to offer a better service. I like that my recent boxes have had a color coordinated feel to them, and I hope to see all items in future boxes available online at full retail prices – that makes it feel like a much better value if you decide to keep several items to get the 20-30% discount.
