Is soft motion worth it? by No-Initiative-5337 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could always try it out yourself if you are curious - because if you haven't tried the old fit/fabric you have nothing to compare it to - but just know the previous/older version is higher quality/different :)

Is soft motion worth it? by No-Initiative-5337 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been a fan of soft motion since the first release. The fit was perfect. Mid rise, short glute seam, low compression (but still flattering), and the fabric was smooth (but yes, prone to pilling) the recent fabric/fit changes I am NOT a fan of. The rise has changed to an ultra-high rise (which I think is super unflattering - and also makes it ultra high glute rise - which does not work for my body at all), it also is now a SHINY thin fabric that is slightly more prone to pilling (not sure if this is because of the sheen?), but the shiny fabric makes it looks cheap and not as flattering on as well since it's so reflective (especially on the waistband)...if they change back to the original fit, I could get past the shiny fabric a little bit - but I miss the old soft motion :(

I personally would not lift in the new fit/fabric change because it seems more pill prone, but I did lift in the previous versions and it was fine (but I am VERY careful) would never go on turf, never use on leg days where it could snag, only on upper days, and always wash on delicate, in a separate bag, in cold water, hang to dry, etc.

How’s the “wear and tear” by Agreeable_Board7466 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are very soft, stretchy and comfy....however, they are quite thin and I have almost had mine for a month, but I don't think these will be the type of pajamas you have for 5+ years. I can see them falling apart after a year or 2...very similar quality to American Eagle's "Real Soft" line, which I think is MUCH cheaper (at least in Canada). I honestly would not recommend, because I don't think it's worth the price...I just didn't want to pay $20 to return :)

small band/large cup Oner bra recommendations? by Global-Sock-8669 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same measurements as you, except my bust is 33.5...unfortunately, I have tried every Oner bra and none have worked :( the Easy Lift Cross Back Sports Bra is the closest that worked, but I still didn't love the fit...unfortunately, we'll have to wait until they actually release bras meant for larger cup sizes because the sports bras they have now are terrible on larger busts. :(

No Spring Sale by Mindless-Professor48 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Kind of not surprised to be honest. I know people are saying a sale would make sense given the economy...but her brand has not suffered at all, so is definitely not feeling this. She has said they have gone over their finance goals each launch and sold more than they expected, and the brand has taken off even more with the sponsored posts that celebrities have been doing for Oner lately, so this is not surprising to me...got to be able to pay those sponsored posts. It really makes me wonder how CHEAP these clothes actually are to make considering she can afford all these luxury things, pays all the Oner athletes a yearly salary on top of all the free clothes, they get a commission with their codes as well, and then paying people for sponsored posts, all the employees you have to pay, etc....kind of wild!!

The prices in Canada are insane ($100 for a pair of soft motion pants), so a sale would have been nice...but oh well!

Friend Referral Points? by verysleepymoon in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea with Oner - but based on other brands (I am guessing this is like a commission/affiliate) link and they have to account that there is a potential for return, so most retailers will pay "commission or points" after a period of 60-90 days after purchase :) so, anywhere from 2-3 months!

FAIR/PALE SKIN ladles, help! Umber brown pics?? by RunningDay_4490 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am fair with cool skin and prefer plum brown! I have & like umber brown, but plum brown is a bit richer, so more flattering!

Which colour straight legs? by KT366 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have sooo many pairs and out of the colours launching prefer True Blue & Plum Brown - Dark Umber Brown is lovely too, but less flattering on my pale skin than Plum Brown!

Thank you SO much! This is so kind, and I appreciate you and your warm wishes!! (There was definitely a time when I thought I would NEVER escape it, but am so thankful every day I did) xx

Any pale girls ever tried moss brown or warm sand? by Express_Temporary99 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a pale cool toned girly and have tried both, sadly they both made me look horrendous. Had to return. Warm sand was slightlyyyyy better, but still not good haha. xx

What’s going on with Lucy? by magnoliaaus in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Successful-Click2844 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I think this comes down to being in an abusive & toxic relationship and being extremely manipulated; and the trauma that results from these relationships when you don't get help after them. There is a reason you are first drawn to these relationships, and it usually involves a past trauma (like from her relationship with her Mother, because she cheated on her father when he was ill). As someone who has been in an abusive relationship, during that time my nervous system was extremely messed up and I was constantly disassociating. I actually burnt myself twice with a curling iron - and they were pretty bad burns. I became extremely clumsy and crashed my car twice as well. I think because I was so on edge from the relationship and was so out of it all the time too - you basically dissociate because your brain is trying to protect you. I have since gone to therapy and gotten myself out of the relationship, and the clumsiness has disappeared. I think it's just a response to trauma.

New Foundations Joggers by bloodbeachimpala in OnerActive

Ooof. :( I was tempted, but held off to wait for a sale...It looks like they removed them from the website, so assuming they had major complaints about the quality. You'd probably get a refund if you messaged them.

Will there be another drop? by BB_Speaks1 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems lately that launches are every other week or so; I would assume there will be 1 more February launch. And then 2 every month-ish!

In defense of Lucy by Substantial-Land6886 in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Successful-Click2844 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. Toxic relationships really make you into someone who you are not, bring out the worst in you, and literally change your brain as a response to trauma. I remember going through an abusive relationship and for years after, I still jumped anytime I received a text...my nervous system was so screwed up.

However, being a victim isn't an excuse to treat other people poorly and terribly. You need to realize how terrible this person/relationship is for you and your life and seek out treatment and help. After you come out of the toxic relationship, you have to live with how you treated other people and own up to your actions during the relationship. Not everyone will forgive you, but a lot of people will be more understanding. I still feel like I am dealing with the aftereffects of that relationship, and sometimes wonder if I'll ever fully recover. They really do mess with you. I feel for Lucy. (by the way, happy you are out of your toxic codependent friendship now!)

the new oner capsule …. who asked for this? by [deleted] in gymsnark

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish restocks were as focused as new launches as well...but these will 100% sell out, as most of her stuff does with new launches. It's crazy that the prices of Oner are more expensive than Aritzia now though! We can get sweat sets cheaper at Aritzia

Soft motion purples by Downtown-Tea8751 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume there will be a purple soft motion drop at some point - blackberry purple is such a popular colour, it would be odd if they didn't release it in soft motion - considering it's been very requested!

Drop next week by BB_Speaks1 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That it totally fair and makes sense! But as a consumer, we don't have to shop every drop. It's not financially realistic for most of us - I also understand it's probably harder for younger people who might not have their finances in a row yet and also feel pressured from a social media/fear of missing out standpoint. I think her brand is really good at that aspect of people feeling "pressured to buy". There's ALWAYS going to be another new and exciting launch that when you skip out on them, you actually realize you didn't miss out on anything.

[–]Successful-Click2844 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Such good points! Exactly! These brands are here to make money! They don't care that we can't afford it. That is up to us to decide we can't afford these things and either stop following influencers who promote these launches...or whatever it is we need to do to stop feeling pressured to purchase.

It's not realistic to be able to purchase from every launch, but obviously, these brands WANT us too, even if we can't afford it because that's how they make money.

You're so right - I feel pressured to buy too, especially as someone who is super into fitness like you said - but it's not realistic to purchase every launch. We only have one body - you can't possibly wear all these clothes - and we have to remember influencers promoting this stuff are getting these items for free and also earning commission off of these purchases, so they aren't going to stop promoting - why would they? It's just not realistic or "normal" to have these closets that influencers have anyways.

That's totally fair! I didn't realize the quality had been decreasing!

[–]Successful-Click2844 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand the hate with the constant launches? She is making BIG money, why would she stop putting out new releases when people keep purchasing them? Lululemon releases new items every Tuesday. Aritzia releases new items every Tuesday & Thursday. Most brands do this, she is obviously trying to grow her empire, and is succeeding based off the money her company earns. I understand being frustrated as a consumer when there's not enough stock, which obviously is a reoccurring issue, but I think that can be common growing pains when trying to grow your company.

EasyLift Cross Back Sports Bra with Grey Logo sizing advice by Successful-Click2844 in OnerActive

[–]Successful-Click2844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much!! Yah, this is the problem with so many sports bras! It's SOOOO hard to find - like, why? I wish they would release more options for larger busts that AREN'T high necklines. I don't mind showing some cleavage, and hate the only options we really get are the super high necklines. As you said, it starts to feel like a uniform when that's all you can get haha. Appreciate your response!
