There are no photoshopped waists or proportions here- only hard work, and strong, happy legs. We believe that bold performance requires bold apparel. That&#8217;s why we have made every color under the sun- you can dress your style up or down and always feel confident. The FLEO community is full of meaningful people who do big things. Together, we are creating a new generation of strength training for women.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A note from CEO and founder, Babs King:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Have you ever ripped apart your workout apparel to see how much abuse it can withstand? Or perhaps see how it was made? What stitches are the strongest while maintaining a buttery soft feel? I found the answers to these questions the old fashion way. I stretched butt seams until they ripped doing squats. I used my favorite tool, a seam ripper, to deconstruct every pair of shorts I could get my hands on. I started FLEO with the goal to make the best pair of women&#8217;s shorts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tempo Crop &#8211; Classic Navy<\/strong>: <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/tempo-crop-classic-navy\">https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/tempo-crop-classic-navy<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/fl4.jpg\"><br \/>\n<strong>El Toro 21&#8243; Black<\/strong>: <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/el-toro-21-bounce-leggings-black\">https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/el-toro-21-bounce-leggings-black<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/fl3.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Castlerock Reinette Bra<\/strong>: <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/reinette_sportsbra_bounce-castlerock\">https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/reinette_sportsbra_bounce-castlerock<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/fl2.jpg\"><br \/>\n<strong>Marble Snake Apex Contour<\/strong>: <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/midrise-shorts-apex-marble_snake\">https:\/\/www.fleo.com\/products\/midrise-shorts-apex-marble_snake<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intouchrugby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/fl1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The first pair of FLEOs were created at my kitchen table at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. I was inspired to create something that showed off strong, muscular, athletic legs. I wanted my creation to match the body confidence of women who own their curves. I started the old fashioned way (with a modern twist) by self-teaching sewing via YouTube. I focused on tight-fitting spandex shorts, most commonly referred to as &#8220;booty shorts&#8221;. I wanted a more versatile short for a wider range of body types- with multiple inseam lengths, different styles, and various amounts of coverage. FLEO&#8217;s fit was married with my love of bold prints, eye catching colors, and un-compromised fabric quality.<\/p>\n<p>I frequently get asked the question: &#8220;What does FLEO stand for?&#8221;. The truth is, FLEO is not an acronym for anything. It represents a feeling I had during my creative process. I was determined to make better performing workout apparel specifically for women. The FLEO lady is fearless. Fearless in her strength, confidence, and fun. She is free.<\/p>\n<p>Today, FLEO&#8217;s fit and spandex expertise are applied to numerous styles in multiple clothing categories. FLEO&#8217;s emphasis on strong, athletic women will always be at the forefront of what we do. The FLEO sisterhood is here to support you, empower you, and of course: make you look good. We curate the highest performance fabrics and bring colors to life in support of an avid, fun loving community. We take pride in offering a wide variety of fits in every color under the sun.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-668790\"
