JUNONIA ACTIVEWEAR

My entire life I've been large and I have always searched and struggled to find clothing for an active life. Until Junonia came along I was constantly making do with casual, and sometimes, dressy clothing for hiking, gym workouts, whatever. I could never find sportswear for my size that was actually sportswear! I've been purchasing real sportswear from Junonia now for over a year and I could just cry with joy at how satisfied I am with the selection, comfort, and functionality of my purchases. Then yesterday I received the latest catalog and couldn't believe how much the selection has grown - it seems to have doubled overnight! And, I can find not only Coolmax fabrics in most of the workout clothes, but there are also items like the Aquatard and yoga gear. And, a huge selection of attractive swimsuits. But, not only are they attractive, the designs are thoughtful as if the designer would actually wear them. It's shocking, but even now with many plus-size people almost all clothing is desi gned for a size 6 and "scaled" up. I've always been overjoyed that all the models are real, large women and not these walking sticks with large clothing pinned up on them. I also love that almost all of the photos show women being active in a sport or outdoors. So many of the catalogs for large clothes seem to just show women sitting or standing somewhere out of the way. I couldn't be more thrilled to see Junonia grow and succeed. I tell everyone I know about it! Almost everyone knows someone who is an active plus-size woman! Under the Junonia logo on the catalogs it reads "Inspiration for active women in plus sizes." Well, it truly is inspirational to me! After all I've been inspired to do something I've never done before - write a letter of gratitude and praise to the owner of a clothing catalog. Thank you, Ann

I just wanted to say "Thank you" for offering such amazing, quality active-wear. The "quik wik" leggings are fabulous and have been my savior. I wore my first pair for almost a year…at least three times a week when working out. I noticed just before Christmas that the seam had finally ripped (I was pleasantly surprised at how long they lasted). So for a short time I was forced to wear "non-Junonia" pants while working out at the club. It only took two days before I had a miserable "friction" rash. It was either give up cardio or get some new leggings. Thankfully I received two new pair of the "quikwik" leggings for Christmas and I am pushing myself even harder at the gym. I've branched out to try other Junonia items…a swim suit, several different tops, yoga pants, etc. I have not been disappointed. I pass out my catalogs left and right to friends…and I'll continue to be an advocate for Junonia as long as you keep it going. Best wishes. Amy
