00:00 Hey guys, and welcome back to my channel.
00:02 And today I am doing a huge Nippo Gym LA Express haul.
00:06 I'm really excited for this haul,
00:07 not because it's like anything crazy,
00:09 but it's just a bunch of like really nice basics.
00:11 We got like basic sports bras,
00:13 really cute little tank tops, crop tops,
00:15 and full length ones.
00:17 One of which I've been wearing to the gym
00:18 like almost every day, just with a little coverup.
00:21 Anyway, we got some shorts and some leggings.
00:24 So basically we got everything.
00:26 We just gotta go over the basic, what do you need to know,
00:28 sizing, what I think about it, the prices.
00:31 I'm gonna be listing prices on the screen
00:33 because I wasn't, you know, having my crap together enough
00:37 to have it together right now.
00:38 Also, if you're not subscribed, please make sure to do so.
00:41 I do a lot of affordable active wear videos here.
00:44 And then we always have to do, you know, the classic,
00:46 the Gymshark, the Alphalete, that good stuff.
00:49 First up is actually what I'm wearing right now,
00:51 which is the mountain bra.
00:53 So I'm gonna go over talking a few details on this one.
00:57 I have it in white, black, and purple.
01:00 I don't know where the white one is.
01:01 I wore it and now she's gone.
01:03 This bra is made of a nice slick performance material.
01:06 It's not like a super thick material,
01:08 but it does have some shape to it.
01:10 It is that kind of sweat-wicking, slick feel.
01:12 You also have these supportive, thicker tank straps.
01:15 And then in the back you have a little detailing
01:18 with the thicker straps,
01:20 and then they threw some thin ones in there.
01:21 They also have removable cup pads.
01:23 And this bra is true to size for me.
01:25 I do wear my normal size small.
01:27 Okay, here is a better view of the bra.
01:29 As you can see, it's a nice medium coverage.
01:31 You do get a little bit of a scoop neck,
01:33 teeny bit of cleavage, but nothing crazy.
01:35 No side boob going on.
01:37 It's pretty well covered.
01:38 As I was saying, you can't actually see where the band is.
01:42 It kind of just looks like it's one piece,
01:44 if that makes sense.
01:45 Like, let me show you.
01:46 Another bra from this collection.
01:48 You can see that it's like a separate sewn band.
01:51 This one, that's not the case.
01:53 So I think that's kind of cute and unique.
01:55 Here is the back.
01:56 As you can see, nice little crisscross detail,
01:58 and then a little V detail with the thin straps.
02:01 So it's a little strappy, a little fun.
02:03 I'd say this is a solid medium support.
02:05 I'm not jiggling around too much,
02:07 but it's not gonna be like for you bigger chested ladies.
02:10 It's not like a high impact,
02:12 like, you know, let's go running kind of day.
02:15 Next we have the forest top, which is so cute.
02:19 I seriously think these are so fun and unique.
02:21 And honestly, I would wear these as like normal shirts,
02:24 not just active wear.
02:25 So they're these little cute little tanks,
02:27 and they have this really nice ribbed material,
02:30 really nice stretchy ribbed material.
02:32 Yeah, it kind of reminds me of like
02:34 somewhat Lele fashion boutique.
02:36 I don't know, but like not totally a dupe,
02:38 but you know, some little spaghetti straps.
02:40 They crisscross in the back.
02:42 So they have this really cute little like,
02:46 little twist going on.
02:47 I just think it's so cute.
02:48 And it's also not like a super cropped.
02:50 Like, as you can tell,
02:51 it definitely has a little bit of length to it.
02:53 I have the moss green, this little light gray color,
02:56 and this black color, all of which are super cute.
02:59 The only thing about these is that you can't wear
03:02 really thick like bra straps underneath,
03:04 or else you'll see it.
03:05 Also, if you have a smaller chest
03:06 and you don't always like to wear a bra,
03:08 this back, it would be poppin'.
03:11 Okay, here's the top.
03:12 I just threw it on over another bra
03:14 that I'm going to be reviewing.
03:15 But it's like a really nice length.
03:17 And if you're wearing high-waisted leggings,
03:19 it would come up to about here.
03:21 These are just the shorts I wear
03:22 in every single one of my videos,
03:24 because I don't feel like wearing real shorts.
03:26 And it's got that cute little twist back.
03:28 And this is the kind of shirt
03:30 that you can show off a cute little sports bra with.
03:33 But you do want to just make sure
03:34 that the straps go with this,
03:36 because like, these little thin straps,
03:39 it's totally fine like from the front and everything.
03:41 But if I was wearing a really thick strapped sports bra,
03:43 it wouldn't cover them up or look super cute.
03:45 So you do have to wear spaghetti straps underneath.
03:47 But I really love it.
03:49 I'm wearing a size small.
03:50 And this is true to size.
03:52 Next, we have a more breathable,
03:54 kind of like loose fitting full length tank.
03:57 This is the rain top and it comes in purple,
04:01 this little light blue, which is my favorite color, and white.
04:03 This shirt does have that really super slick material.
04:06 It's not cottony at all.
04:07 It's also super, super thin.
04:09 You can tell, you can like totally see
04:10 like my nails through it.
04:12 So very, very lightweight and breathable.
04:14 It does have thicker tank straps.
04:16 And it is a looser fit with little mesh detail in the back.
04:20 And these little mesh details, they tie.
04:22 So if you want it to be kind of like
04:24 a little more fitted of a shirt,
04:25 you can just tie up little pieces in the back.
04:27 Oh my gosh, Peach.
04:28 (laughs)
04:29 Wait, wait, wait.
04:30 Peach.
04:33 Hey girl.
04:33 Aw.
04:36 She wanted to be part of the action.
04:39 Anyway, you can just tie up these little straps in the back
04:42 and then it's a super cute kind of crop top,
04:44 but usually kind of like the full length.
04:45 Peach, that is dangerous.
04:47 She's sitting on the top of my chair.
04:48 She's gonna fall off.
04:50 She just wants to be part of the video.
04:52 Okay, so here is the top.
04:56 As you can see, when it's not tied or anything,
04:59 it's definitely a loose fit.
05:00 It is kind of giving me like muscle tee vibes, you know,
05:03 like with this little opened shoulder region
05:05 and then just kind of the shape.
05:07 So I feel like it's not the most feminine shape top.
05:11 Like it definitely has a little boxy appearance,
05:13 which isn't my favorite.
05:15 When you tie it, I think the shape is really cute.
05:17 And it's definitely a longer crop top when you tie it.
05:20 So you can kind of just like tuck in
05:22 this little bottom section so it's not too baggy.
05:26 And then you have this super cute little tie in the back.
05:29 Next, we have the lake top.
05:31 This material, this is the top I've been wearing
05:33 every single day to the gym.
05:35 Not that I like necessarily work out in it, I have,
05:38 but it is like the perfect like lightweight cover up top.
05:41 This fabric, seriously, like think Lululemon Align,
05:45 except lighter weight.
05:46 I know it seems crazy, but it is.
05:48 It is the most buttery soft,
05:51 like I don't even know how to describe it.
05:54 Do you see how like buttery soft this is?
05:57 Like first of all, super stretchy, super thin,
06:01 and just like incredibly soft.
06:04 Like I seriously just want to live in these tops.
06:06 I have them all in a size small.
06:07 They come in a variety of purple colors.
06:09 I believe this is the blue purple color.
06:11 This might be like the light purple.
06:14 And then we have this darker purple.
06:16 So a nice range of like muted purpley grays,
06:19 and then also the black,
06:20 which is the one that I've been wearing the most probably.
06:23 See, it's got this like, the little high neck is so cute.
06:27 Comes in a little bit.
06:28 I just think it's really, I don't know,
06:30 it's just a flattering shape.
06:31 Kind of gives you a little, makes your shoulders look nice.
06:34 And then you have that super open back.
06:36 So if you do want to wear it to the gym,
06:39 it's not going to like make you sweat
06:41 or get hot or anything.
06:42 And you can show off a nice little sports bra.
06:44 I just really like honestly throw them on
06:46 right after the gym, like as I go to my car,
06:49 or you can tie it up.
06:51 So here it is tied up.
06:52 You can still see in a little opening in the back,
06:55 but it's got this super cute little tie detail.
06:57 And then it makes it kind of a more fitted top.
07:00 You can kind of tuck this in a little bit if you want.
07:03 I don't see a lot of tops
07:05 made of the super buttery soft fabric.
07:07 So it just makes me feel really excited
07:09 because like I just feel so soft.
07:11 Next I believe this is called the seeding
07:14 or seedling bra.
07:15 I don't really know what it's called,
07:17 but first of all, the tee.
07:21 These look exactly like a bra I used to like
07:24 from another brand.
07:25 You know, you know me girl.
07:26 It's okay, different brands,
07:27 I sell the same stuff sometimes.
07:28 But here it is.
07:30 It's super cute.
07:31 It is like an exact dupe for a certain Lululemon bra.
07:34 I don't really know which Lululemon bra it is,
07:37 but you know what I'm talking about.
07:38 Super cute.
07:39 It's got these three crisscross straps.
07:42 They do a little crisscross obviously.
07:45 And then they have this little open cage area in the back,
07:48 but the straps go over it.
07:50 It's just super cute detailing.
07:51 But yeah, it comes in this little blue, double blue shade.
07:54 And then this purple, light purple shade.
07:56 Okay, so here's the bra.
07:58 I would say if you like a compression,
08:00 which I do because honestly,
08:02 this bra is like a medium.
08:04 Actually I'm not really jiggling at all in this bra.
08:07 I'm wearing a size small.
08:09 That's my normal size.
08:10 So just know if you do have your normal size,
08:12 there will be some compression.
08:14 But I personally like the compression.
08:16 I think it makes me feel secure.
08:18 About a medium coverage again.
08:19 Does have a little scoop neck.
08:21 Nothing crazy.
08:22 No side boob spillage.
08:24 This has been one of my favorite bras for a long time.
08:26 I just think it's so cute and such a unique design.
08:29 And I just love these little crisscross straps.
08:31 Like it seriously looks like Lululemon.
08:34 Like I'm not kidding.
08:35 It is a slicker material.
08:36 Probably will show a little bit of sweat
08:39 like most bras do.
08:40 But it's not like a cottony material
08:42 that will show a ton of sweat.
08:43 Next we have the grass bra,
08:45 which I have in this rose color and army green.
08:48 I really like these like muted kind of fall tone colors.
08:52 I think it's perfect for this time of year.
08:53 Bra has spaghetti straps that converge
08:55 to a little Y shape in the back.
08:57 So this is definitely a low support bra.
08:59 I like the spaghetti straps will not offer a lot of support.
09:02 Then we have removable cup pads.
09:04 And these removable cup pads are actually separated
09:06 by a little sewing.
09:08 So the pads are not gonna all converge to the center.
09:11 You know, they're gonna stay in their lane.
09:13 About a low to medium coverage for this.
09:16 I wasn't spilling out of it,
09:17 but it's also not like a lot of coverage
09:19 'cause it's spaghetti strap bra.
09:20 You know what I'm saying.
09:21 Let's just try it on.
09:22 Okay, here's the grass bra in the army green shade.
09:25 It provides a little bit of support.
09:27 I'd say like a light support
09:28 from like the actual just compression of the bra.
09:31 But the straps like they don't really do very much.
09:34 I've never found a spaghetti strap bra
09:36 that like provides a lot of support.
09:38 So like if you have a small chest
09:40 like this will be fine for you.
09:41 But I just think it's such a cute basic
09:44 and also like has a lot of like openness
09:46 around the arm area.
09:48 So you won't feel restricted
09:50 and you can also see the back gains.
09:51 Recommended for smaller chest only I would say.
09:54 I don't think I will find myself wearing this very much,
09:56 but I don't wear spaghetti strap bras.
09:59 But it is true to size.
10:00 I wear a size small in my sports bras
10:02 and the removable cup pads are not actually visible.
10:06 And I will say even though this is,
10:08 even though this is a spaghetti strap bra,
10:11 it is covering my boob completely.
10:13 So I don't feel like I'm being spilled out totally.
10:15 Next we have the Path Top.
10:17 I have it in white, darker purple and light blue.
10:21 So this top is kind of like a high neck tank crop deal,
10:26 but it's not super cropped.
10:27 Like we're not talking about like showing
10:29 basically your entire stomach.
10:30 It just like, it's a nice crop length.
10:32 The material feels kind of slick,
10:34 but it does have a ribbed texture.
10:36 See, it has that ribbed material.
10:38 And then it also has this little like crisscross dealio
10:42 up here.
10:42 It's just kind of like in the fabric.
10:44 It's not actual like different layers of fabric.
10:46 And we don't have any craziness going on in the back.
10:49 So it is going to be a pretty full coverage,
10:51 like cropped-ish tank.
10:53 It's not like totally cropped, but it's a little bit cropped.
10:55 Okay, so I'm actually wearing a medium in this top.
10:59 My blue shade is in a medium.
11:01 The other ones were smalls.
11:02 I think that I would recommend sizing up
11:05 because this is pretty snug on me and it's a size up.
11:09 I have to say, I really like this crisscross detail.
11:12 I feel like it really like cinches that waist in.
11:15 And you see what I'm saying about it
11:16 not being like super cropped.
11:18 This will go to the line of your high-waisted leggings.
11:20 So like your high-waisted leggings
11:22 come a bit above your belly button.
11:23 That's all the skin you'll be showing.
11:25 So if you don't like showing a lot of skin,
11:26 I think this is a really great top.
11:28 I love the ribbed texture.
11:30 I don't know what it is.
11:31 Give me a ribbed fabric and I'm on board.
11:33 The back is nice and full coverage.
11:36 So yeah, I feel like this is a great
11:38 like basic tank to have for the gym.
11:40 But yeah, I really like this top.
11:41 Just make sure to size up
11:43 because I don't think the small
11:44 would be very comfortable on me.
11:46 I think that the medium is better.
11:48 Next we have the leaf shorts.
11:50 I know it's getting to be fall,
11:51 but some people still like wearing shorts to the gym.
11:53 I'm personally a leggings person,
11:54 but I know a lot of you guys like shorts.
11:56 I have four different colors.
11:57 I have an extra small in this kind of blue black shade.
12:00 You can see it's kind of not totally black,
12:01 almost a super dark gray.
12:03 And then I have smalls in the rest of these.
12:05 The army kind of moss green,
12:07 the darker warm toed purple,
12:10 and then the totally black black.
12:11 These shorts have about a three inch inseam,
12:14 a teeny bit longer.
12:15 So they are on the shorter side of shorts,
12:17 especially because Nepoagym has made
12:19 four inch inseam shorts in the past.
12:21 So if you don't like those and they were a little long,
12:23 these are a bit shorter.
12:24 You do have a little seam at the top of the waistband,
12:27 but it doesn't feel too bulky.
12:29 It has a little pocket at the top of the shorts too.
12:31 This is in the back.
12:32 They do have pockets on the side, which is super exciting.
12:36 Always love a nice short with pockets.
12:38 I think that's underdone.
12:39 And then the back,
12:40 it does have that little double rounded booty seam.
12:43 The seam is often found on shorts or leggings
12:46 that have pockets.
12:47 I think it just adds like a little structural support.
12:50 Sometimes I find that it's not flattering on my butt.
12:53 So we will see how this is, but yeah, we'll try it on.
12:56 Okay, here are the shorts.
12:58 The size small fits me really well.
13:00 Not getting any camel toe.
13:02 That's good.
13:03 And the seam at the top of the waistband
13:05 isn't cutting into me at all.
13:08 So that's really good because that's always a worry
13:10 if when I see a seam at the top of the waistband,
13:13 it goes just about to the belly button,
13:15 maybe a little bit above.
13:17 Because these aren't super tight on me,
13:18 I don't feel like the shorts are riding up at all.
13:21 I actually feel like they're sitting in place
13:23 like really well.
13:24 And I think this is a good length.
13:25 It's not like biker short,
13:27 but it's not like booty short.
13:29 Two inch inseam, no sis, we can't do it.
13:32 We got little pockets here.
13:33 And they actually have like a little mesh lining.
13:35 I didn't notice that before.
13:37 So fun.
13:38 Look at that attention to detail.
13:40 Wow.
13:40 They are a cottony kind of material.
13:43 I'd say probably a medium compression.
13:46 I'm not feeling super squeezed in.
13:48 (upbeat music)
13:50 And last but not least, we have the exploring leggings.
13:55 So a month or two ago,
13:56 I reviewed the Nepoagym Sugar Leggings,
13:59 which I love the sugar leggings,
14:01 but they are made of a slick material.
14:04 So if you prefer a more brushed,
14:06 buttery soft material fabric, these are for you.
14:09 I will show you a closeup of the fabric,
14:12 but yes, you can see it is that kind of brushed texture.
14:17 It's not super like cottony brushed,
14:19 but it definitely is not that slick performance material.
14:23 I have all of these in a size small.
14:25 We have this kind of like, I don't know, wisteria purple.
14:28 I just made that up.
14:30 We have this black color, another lighter purple color,
14:34 this teal, almost dusty teal shade,
14:38 whatever you want to call this,
14:39 maybe like a dark bluish gray.
14:41 And then we have this little pink ones.
14:42 We have a seamless waistband, which I love.
14:44 And it actually looks like the seams around the butt
14:48 are kind of tapered up.
14:50 So guys, I haven't tried these on yet to be quite honest,
14:53 but this looks like it's going to be really flat
14:55 around my butt.
14:55 We do have an extended gusset crotch.
14:58 So these are more a line dupes.
15:00 I think that the Nepoagym Sugar Leggings
15:02 were more of a wonder under dupe.
15:03 I did call them line dupes before,
15:05 but I'm not a loser, I'm an expert, okay?
15:07 So some people commented and told me
15:09 they're more like wonder unders.
15:10 So I appreciate you guys spreading the knowledge.
15:13 I feel like these might be more of a seven eights on me,
15:16 but they're really soft.
15:17 So let's see how they are.
15:19 Okay, so these are really, really soft.
15:22 Like they feel super thin and stretchy.
15:25 Like look at that stretch.
15:27 Sometimes you get a line dupes and you put them on
15:29 and they're just like, honestly not stretchy.
15:31 This material is also super lightweight.
15:33 Like I give it a light to medium compression.
15:36 I would give Aligns a light compression.
15:38 I would give these a light to medium,
15:41 not quite as light as the Aligns,
15:42 but definitely on the light side.
15:44 Like I'm not getting much compression out of these,
15:47 which is my personal preference.
15:48 The waistband goes to my belly button
15:51 and it has a front seam.
15:53 I'm not getting any camel toe at the moment, I don't think,
15:56 but there might be risk for some
15:57 because it does have that front seam.
15:59 It also has one of those little inside pockets right here.
16:02 So I never use these.
16:04 I personally would like if people just left it out
16:06 'cause like I don't need it, but it's there.
16:08 And these are honestly really flattering on the booty.
16:11 Like these little seam lines do kind of curve
16:14 around your butt and they fall actually above,
16:18 like at the right place in my hips.
16:20 Like this is where my butt ends
16:22 and the seam is right there.
16:23 You probably will get a little bit of cellulite,
16:26 but they are thicker than Aligns.
16:27 So you should have more cellulite coverage than Aligns.
16:31 I'd say a medium booty scale.
16:32 It's not doing anything crazy for me, but it's not too bad.
16:36 They are a bit short on me,
16:37 which is why they're not personally my favorite.
16:40 But if you are on the shorter side,
16:41 these will be a nice full length on you.
16:43 (upbeat music)
16:46 (upbeat music)
16:48 Okay, so that is everything.
16:54 I love the Nepoagym, speaking more basics,
16:57 because to be honest,
16:58 like everyone needs these kind of things.
17:00 I think my favorites are the Mountain Bra,
17:03 whatever this top is called.
17:04 I kind of forget, like Moss Top or something, Leaf Top.
17:07 The ribbed little spaghetti strap one.
17:09 I'll have them all in the order I tried them on
17:11 down below, linked of course.
17:13 Oh, and then the super, super soft top.
17:16 Those are my favorites
17:16 just because your girl has enough leggings.
17:19 But if you want some Align dupes, these aren't bad.
17:21 Like, these are pretty cute.
17:23 So yeah, if you made it this far,
