Free + in-app purchases seen up to $100 4.8★ lifetime (135,670) since 2019

Fabletics is praised for its comfortable, high-quality clothing and frequent sales, making it a go-to for many long-term customers R3R4R6R8. However, the VIP membership model is often seen as deceptive, with unexpected charges, expiring credits, and difficulty canceling R1R13R15R18. The app itself is also a source of frustration due to login problems, poor navigation, and inventory issues R5R10R11R14.

Free vs paid

The Fabletics app is free to download and browse, but the core value proposition revolves around its VIP membership, which users describe as charging $69 per credit if a month is not skipped R25. These credits can be used for purchases, but many items are less than the credit value, and additional payments are often required at checkout, even with credits R1R13R19R25. VIP members benefit from sales and perks R9R26, and some appreciate the rewards program . However, non-VIP users or those attempting to cancel face issues with recurring charges and difficulty removing payment information R15R18.

Worth paying if

Skip / stay free if

  1. [R1] 1/5 · US Fees: I don’t agree with bundle deals saying the credit covers the cost then at checkout, requiring me to pay a difference for the amount my credit doesn’t cover.
  2. [R13] 2/5 · US credit doesn’t cover it all: your VIP credit doesn’t cover the full cost out the door - you’ll still have to pay more once your check out. maybes it’s in the fine print who knows - i didn’t
  3. [R19] 5/5 · US My favorite is the effortless T regular and cropped: I love the way the shirt looks and feels very premium. The only problem I have is at checkout is mixed leading as far as the price I do the math and it’s never the same. There’s a hidden fee somewhere.
  4. [R25] 2/5 · US VIP program is deceitful: The VIP program charges you $69 per credit if you forget to skip a month in the 3 days you have to do so. If you don’t use the credits within a year, they fall off. So you get NOTHING for your $69. You can call customer service and after they guilt you for wanting your credit that you PAID for restored, they do so reluctantly. Ask again and your browbeaten. If that’s no
  5. [R15] 2/5 · US Scam App: The app charged me a random charge for a “membership token” of $70 after I made a purchase a few weeks ago. And it won’t let me delete my card off my account or delete the account at all. Don’t buy from the website because they will keep your card on file. I’ve been on hold with customer service for an hour.
  6. [R18] 1/5 · US No customer service: I attempted to cancel my account. You continue to take money out of my account monthly and and have received no credits in my account. I attempted to call and it said there were 20,000 people waiting in line ahead of me. You owe me money for all the months I was charged and received nothing.
  7. [R28] 1/5 · US Math?: 17.48+5.95+1.61=25.04 not 28.98 which is what I was charged for this order
  8. [R30] 1/5 · US Good quality terrible experiences: Love the long leggings, good quality and they last! I have been a long time customer however the sight get glitchier overtime I use it (app or not). The shipping takes forever. NOW they are charging for tariffs! So to use my 2 credits cost me 40$ not worth it! I will no longer be shopping Fabletics!
  9. [R31] 1/5 · US CRAZY CHARGES: Overcharging on VIP credits and taxes.
  10. [R37] 1/5 · US Math doesn’t math.: When you get to checkout, the numbers never make sense: Shipping: free Tax: 11.01 VIP credit: 2 Total: 17.98 Smh
  11. [R3] 5/5 · US Love it all!: I use Fabletics for all my workout threads, casual wear, AND their scrubs for my long shifts in the ICU. I love how they make me look and how they make me feel.

  14. [R7] 4/5 · US Fabulous material: My only suggestion is that we’d be able to share our bra sizes. It’d be helpful in the reviews. I ordered a few workout bra they’re super cute if I don’t move…otherwise becomes a show.

  17. [R21] 5/5 · US Decent deals: Got some decent clothes
  18. [R26] 5/5 · US The obsession is real!: I have been buying Fabletics for 8 years and the thing I love the most is the evolution of their lines. I went from buying just gym attire to everyday outfits. I love the athleisure wear. I can keep my gym girly vibes but still be cute and comfy outside of leggings. The fact they always have great deals is a win! I always take advantage of a good sale. Do I buy entirely to
  19. [R12] 5/5 · US Marty at: Convenient and easy to shop with great, quality products.
  20. [R48] 5/5 · US No probs: I am in awe of Fabletics clothing. Everything I have bought fits perfectly. Normally you go through a leaning curve of how they size, but not here. I have bought bundles which consisted of an outfit Sometimes 3 tops, shorts +long leggings or joggers and a tank. All of which just blows my mind. Even the denim is spot on. Thanks Fabletics I did all my summer shopping here, with the elimina
  21. [R5] 1/5 · US Disappointed: No matter how many times I try I cannot log in to the app. I get to the verification process enter the code that has been texted to me and then the thinking circle just goes on forever and eventually says error something went wrong

  23. [R11] 2/5 · US 30justforyou gift card: Spent way too much time on website trying to scroll through sale page ( always seems to be a common issue) . I always seem to run into some kind of issue when on this website.
  24. [R14] 2/5 · US App does work well: The clothing is very nice but the app is not good. Many times it offers an item to select but when I choose it says sold out. When scrolling through bundles toward the end it is starting to flutter and skip.
