*Disclosure—This is a sponsored post from Albion Fit. However, all opinions and statements are mine and mine alone.
I was recently contacted by Albion Fit to give an honest review of some of their fitness clothing. Of course I was really excited about this as I am always looking for comfortable AND stylish workout clothes.
Many of you know that I am a runner and if you follow The Idea Room on Instagram, you will see that I am also training for my third half-marathon…(I realize this qualifies me as half-crazy). But I love it. I love being active and having the right clothing makes a big difference.
Now, I am not really a fan of self-portraits. In fact, I feel super self-conscious. My husband and I were laughing while trying to get these pictures because I feel so unnatural in front of the camera. I prefer hiding behind a computer screen in my yoga pants ;)!
I chose to review the Albion Fit Women’s Fitness Go Long Crew Top in Heather and the Mantra Yoga Pant. I tried them out on a recent family hiking and camping trip we took to Arches National Park in Moab, Utah. I knew we were going to be doing a lot of strenuous hiking and I wanted to be comfortable and fashionable while doing it ;)! Since it is a desert, the temperatures during the day and night can be extreme, so it is important to layer.
The shirt is made of a light weight material that is perfect when there is a bit of chill in the air. It was really comfortable and I like how it fell around my waist. It was slim enough to not be baggy and hanging, but it was not too form fitting which I am uncomfortable with.
And the pants…I LOVED the pants. They were so comfortable and I love the flare on the end. As a girl with some curves to her, the flare is a nice touch to balance out my hips. And I LOVED the design on the pant leg. A fun twist to a black yoga pant. They were so comfortable to hike in and they still looked great after a rigorous hike.
Albion Fit just opened a new store here in Salt Lake City at the amazing City Creek Center located on the upper level on the northeast end next to Allen Edmonds. I am excited to be able to head in a check them out.

Jen S. says
My favorite workout is walking/running, but since it was winter and dreary and cold I’ve been trying to get healthy and lose weight using TurboFire, which is great and I highly recommend it!
McKenzie Kennedy says
I’m not a huge fitness person. My favorite thing to do is take a walk with my kids in their stroller. I need workout clothes, so this would be great.
P.S. This post says this giveaway ended April 6th. :)
Diane (createdbydiane) says
well it was a pretty steady routine until two weeks ago, I’m searching for something new to do and a new trainer. I bet new pants would help :) I typically work out three times a week for an hour, bootcamp style workout, lately boxing and kickboxing but not loving it, so I will begin running again until I find something new.
Dawn says
I’m always on the lookout for cute workout stuff and I love those yoga pants! I’m a runner and I actually run my first half marathon next weekend…bright and early at 6:30am Mother’s Day!
Clarissa says
I thought you looked great in the pictures. I am always looking for some comfy yoga clothes and great workout clothes. I am a runner too and good clothes are a must. Thanks!
Teresa says
Oooh, I love those pants!
Becky James says
I love to lift weights and do a little cardio!!
Lisa Wenckus says
I used to wake up early, turn on the tv (or computer) and drink my coffee until the kids woke up. Now, this is my time to workout! I love to get my workout in before the kids get up and I don’t have to worry about it for the rest of the day!!
Melissa Foust says
Yoga!
Ashley Gilbert says
Mine is running like you! And I just love hoodies when I run. They are so comfy!
Shawn B! says
Lots and lots of stairs…. Literally like six to eight flights three to four times a day. On top of your workout this will do wonders for hips and thighs!
Becky Richied says
I used to do my workout in the mornings, now I actually end my day with a walk to the gym and a workout, it makes so I fall into bed a bit easier exhausted.

with four kids I have to work out around a tight schedule. Thankfully we have some home equipment.=0)

Zumba classes and pilates are two of my favorite ways to get fit!

My favorite exercise is walking. It’s not too stressful on my knees and makes me feel good!

I’ve been doing more with weights since last summer, as well as sprinting once a week. I like the progress so far, but new clothes are needed for this summer!

I love running! Training currently for a big relay race-super excited!

Zumba is my favorite because it makes me forget that I am actually working out!

I love to jump rope because I can do it anywhere and it is an amazing calorie burner. We had our 3rd baby one week ago, so I will be looking forward to getting back into pre-baby shape!

A mixture of bikram yoga, krav maga, and gardening:) xo

I am starting insanity tomorrow! So, it will be fun! :)
Heather McKenzie Carter says
I really love canoeing and hiking- I love being outdoors, and I have a river within blocks of my home. It makes for an adventure filled day where I get to both workout, and have fun.
Tammy says
Working out in the morning helps to fuel the rest of my day. If I miss it, I’ll go for a long walk after work. Comfortable clothes make a difference and it’s even better if they look good, too.
Courtney A says
I LOVE TO RUN!
Lindsey says
I love Cross Fit!
Grace Inman says
I live in a sub division that borders a river and I like to run on the boardwalk by the river in the morning, very pretty scenery for a run!
Tammy wallis says
I’ve been trying to get back into running. My favorite workout is buckram yoga! Just wish it wasn’t so expensive!!
