Question Has anyone purchased Danskin Now fitness clothing from Walmart?

Just wondering about the quality of these products. I tried on a pair of capris today that seemed nice; I may go back next week and purchase them. Have people had good/bad experiences with this brand?

I have bought several tops, and they have held up very well...especially considering the price! Black colors with high cotton content fade a bit, but this seems to be the case with every brand I have bought. Even the much more expensive Champion pants!

I bought tights and shoes for my daughter and I'm happy with them. I was told that they are not made by Danskin though - they sold the use of their name for this line sold only at Walmart.

I buy them all the time. I love Danskin, and at Walmart's prices, you can't go wrong.

I am more interested in the bottoms than the tops. I read some online reviews, and one person said that they do not hold their shape after washing. Anyone had this experience? My exercise clothes get washed a lot!

Have not tried the Danskin line at Walmart. But, Kohls carries some
Danskin tops and bottoms and Tech Elements made by Danskin.
The bottoms I purchased last year have held up well considering
they get lots of use. Kohls usually has some pieces on sale esp in
summer so you might want to compare.

I've bought a lot of their stuff. I like the capris, have three pairs and they hold up well and are pretty and also inexpensive.

Thanks Janga! I may go back and shop next week...I just wish they had fit a tiny bit better, but for that price, I shouldn't complain.

Beth, that's been my experience with them too.

I like the line and they are real Danskin products. As a matter of fact I bought a cute v-neck spandex tee there last week and I wore it today. It was $6 and very cute. I buy all my workout clothes at Walmart or Sam's Club (their private label, Members Mark) and they hold up great.
