FIGS Scrubs Review of Activewear Bra, Leggings & Socks

As a critical care pharmacist and with family in healthcare, you know that I love highlighting companies that give back and are practical for everyday life. I’ve written about Wear FIGS before and am coming in today to discuss their activewear collection including their sports bra, leggings and socks. Plus, a video to see this activewear in action.

FIGS Scrubs Activewear Sports Bra

I’ve owned FIGS Scrubs since 2016 and the quality is AMAZING! I am SO happy that FIGS Scrubs released their new Activewear Line with a sports bra, high-rise performance leggings and socks.

Starting with the 24/7 Performance Racerback Sports Bra, I sized up to a SMALL in this. I normally wear size XS or XXS in FIGS but like to wear sports bras with more give during workouts. My bra size is 32A for reference. I LOVE that the sports bra comes with removable bra cups. This is a MUST in sports bras both for coverage, support and see-through material.

Over the past 3 months of using this FIGS sports bra, I have found it supports well for OrangeTheory Fitness Workouts, is comfortable for all-day wear with my casual FIGS clothing and has held up well with machine washing then air drying. I do take out the bra cups when washing and spray them with Fabreze (linked here) instead of continuously washing with other clothing.

I’m wearing Size XS in the 24/7 High-Rise Performance Leggings, Size Small in the 24/7 Performance Racerback Sports Bra and Size Small in the Ankle Pill Socks (perfect for a pharmacist!)

FIGS Scrubs 24/7 Performance High-Rise Leggings

WOW, these high-rise leggings are amazing! They are better and thicker than my Lululemon leggings. I will say I prefer to wear these for Bar Method workouts because they are not my running style leggings I wear to OrangeTheory Fitness. They are a thicker, scuba-like material that covers well, supports and is not see-through when bending over.

This is Size X-Small leggings for me. I love that there is an interior pocket at the waistband for keys or hair ties. Plus, the high waist allows me to fold it over if I don’t want as much abdominal coverage.

The only downside are these leggings are 7/8 length for regular-height women but long on my petite frame. I opted to roll the length under instead of having them tailored for now.

Alternatives are Zella Leggings (shop here) and Lululemon leggings (shop here) in Size 2 or 4 for me. Both fit me and I’ll keep wearing FIGS leggings as loungewear and Bar Method workouts and Lululemon ones for OTF workouts.

FIGS Scrubs Socks

I was surprised by FIGS socks! Previously I’ve been wearing a lot of Sheec Socks but they are going to a no-show sock company exclusively and are not making their active full coverage socks. I have also previously worn Lululemon workout socks exclusively (10+ years old and going strong!).

I found these socks to be excellent at OrangeTheory Fitness and are moisture-wicking and do not slip down in my sneakers. They have held up well to multiple washings with dryer use.
