Spanx Collaborates with Bala for Groundbreaking Activewear Line

In an exciting move, Spanx, the renowned women's lifestyle brand, has joined forces with Bala, the beloved wellness label, to unveil a unique collaboration that fuses style with physical activity. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for both brands, as it’s their first-ever partnership focused on activewear. Launched today, the limited-edition Spanx x Bala capsule collection includes a four-piece set of custom fitness gear that beautifully complements Spanx’s new low-impact activewear line, SPANXsmooth™ OnForm.

Katie Weeks, Vice President of Brand Marketing at Spanx, expressed her enthusiasm about this partnership, stating, "We’re beyond excited to drop our first-ever activewear collab with Bala. This partnership unites two powerhouse brands, both founded by women, and is redefining their categories with bold energy and breakthrough products." She highlighted Spanx’s commitment to innovation, mentioning their 25 years of experience in creating clothing designed exclusively for the modern woman. The new SPANXsmooth™ OnForm line emphasizes style and functionality, ensuring that women feel confident while they move.

Natalie Holloway, co-founder of Bala, also shared her thoughts on this collaboration, saying, "Movement should feel as good as it looks, and partnering with Spanx takes this idea to a new level. This collaboration is about redefining what it means to show up for yourself...strong, stylish, and unapologetically you." The collaboration aims not just to create fashionable fitness pieces but also to offer women practical solutions that enhance their daily physical routines.

The Capsule Collection

The Spanx x Bala capsule collection features the following four iconic fitness items:
1. Bala Bands: Stylish and functional resistance bands.
2. 2-lb Bala Bangles: Weights designed to enhance workouts without sacrificing style.
3. The No-Slip High Socks: Socks that stay put during any activity.
4. The Wavy Mat: A yoga mat designed for both form and comfort.

Each item has been carefully designed to match the fall color palette of the SPANXsmooth™ OnForm collection.
