Onzie Activewear Review
(pronounced “own-zee”
“CREATION Created by a 20 year Bikram Yogi, Onzie blends the best of traditional yoga wear with modern innovation and a touch of whimsy. The result? Active apparel that is functional, flexible and flattering. At Onzie our philosophy is “keep your practice challenging, and your wardrobe simple!” Onzie’s no-frills one-pieces and separates are best worn while sweating, swimming, or simply lounging around. In keeping with the principle of being inclusive, rather than exclusive, Onzie is affordably-priced and suitable for all activities and practices. Onzie products are made with love in southern California.
PERFORMANCE Utilizing Free-Flow Fabric Technology that is durable and breathable, this fast-drying material keeps bodies cool, dry and comfortable. Onzie yoga gear is perfect for hot yoga, but can also be used for pilates, spinning, swimming, surfing, running or hooping. Our clothes can be worn as everyday wear or into chlorine and salt water environments. You can transition in and out of yoga postures as seamlessly as you can the rest of your day. From straps to bottom, Onzie helps keep your body in check. You’ll feel supported from the inside and out…shaping the entire body. So embrace the awareness of your being, sense your core, and feel secure. Focus on your strength and beauty. And for goodness sake, forget about those so-called flaws. You’re perfectly you.
AMERICAN MADE Did you know that Onzie is 100% made in the USA? All parts of our process including knitting, dyeing, cutting, sewing, photography, marketing, distribution and design all happen in Los Angeles, CA.”
Elastic Tank top
About:
“The Elastic Tank Top will become your new favorite tank! The racer back design includes a fun pop of color and the deep scoop sides allow you to show off that sports bra underneath!
- 100% Free Flow Jersey
- Hand or machine wash cold

- Made in USA.”
My Thoughts:
As the warmer temperatures approach, I am getting increasingly excited to wear this piece on my runs more. The weather has only allowed me to wear this tank two times thus far. However, this tank top will get a lot of wear in the future.
It does everything right. By that I mean: it stays put (whereas some tanks drift off your shoulders or move around too much), it is lightweight and breathes well, it is loose at the bottom (which flatters all body types), and it has a unique and cute accent with the elastic strap on the back. It does all of that while allowing you to absorb some sunshine on your run. I was already a fan of tank tops, but this one has me excited all over again for summer runs.

My Thoughts:
These pants are AWESOME. They fit like a glove, which is exactly what I want when I’m headed out for a long run. Any extra gathering of fabric can prove to be irritating after several miles. With these pants, It’s just like second skin. I forgot I even had them on. I have worn many brands of tights to run in (many specifically designed for runners) and these Onzie capris trump many of them.
The fabric is also great for resisting plying and chaffing in between the legs–which comes into play with pant longevity. In other words, the best running pants (to me) are the ones that don’t wear out after a year or two of use. I see these pants being in the rotation for years to come.
On a girly note–I love the pattern and slight texture of the pants. They are a nice change of pace from your basic black athletic tight. They’re fun while still being figure flattering.
Love your flowy tank. It used to be a favorite of mine as well!
