General Frequently Asked Questions.
We design for real Indian women — no generic “one size fits all” fits here. Our leggings are tailored with extended inner thigh panels, our bras have stitched-in pads that don’t budge, and every piece is made from cloud-soft, sweat-ready fabric that feels like second skin. Minimal, functional, and made for movement — no compromises.
Yes — that’s our core promise. We build around real Indian proportions, from shorter torsos to fuller thighs. You’ll notice deeper rises, better waistband holds, and leggings that don’t ride up or sag. It’s fit-first, always.
We use a premium nylon-spandex blend designed to sculpt, breathe, and stretch with you. It’s buttery soft, ultra-breathable, and sweat-wicking. Think: second skin with a hug, without the pinch or dig. No itching. No pulling. No compromises.
100%. Our leggings are squat-proof, sweat-wicking, and completely opaque, even in lighter shades. We field-test everything — from HIIT drills to hot yoga — so you can move freely without worrying about coverage.
Nope — and that’s the point. Our skinny imported pads are stitched in, so they never fold, shift, or disappear in the wash. It’s support that stays where it should — every time.
Our size chart is based on Indian bodies — no confusing US conversions. You’ll find detailed bust, waist, and hip measurements in cm and inches. Still unsure? Drop us a DM or email, and we’ll guide you through a personalized fit check.
We’ve got options.
- Everyday Bra: Medium support for yoga, walks, Pilates.
- Front Zip Bra: High-impact support with zipper-lock and bounce control — ideal for cardio, CrossFit, and weight training.
Each bra is designed for comfort + containment, not compression or discomfort.
If you prefer a snug, sculpted feel — size down. If you like a relaxed, lounge-style fit — size up. Our fabric is stretch-friendly and forgiving, so you’ll feel held either way. Our team can also recommend based on activity and body type.
Yes. Our nylon-spandex blend was chosen to handle Indian summers, studio sweat sessions, and tropical humidity. It’s ultra-breathable, quick-drying, and odor-resistant — so you can wear it from sunrise to sunset.

Absolutely. Our designs are gym-to-brunch ready — think activewear that’s soft enough to sleep in and stylish enough to wear out. Our flared leggings and everyday bras are customer favorites for lounging, travelling, and even WFH.
We use skinny stitched-in pads, so you get a natural contour — not bulk or over-lift. No double boob, no foam domes, just smooth support that stays flattering from AM to PM.
To keep your pieces perfect:
- Hand wash or machine wash cold (gentle cycle)
- Do not wring or bleach
- Lay flat to dry
Avoid direct sunlight for long hours
Bonus tip: Flip them inside out before washing to protect elasticity.

AKOS was co-founded by siblings Navya (22) and Kannav (26). Navya couldn’t find activewear that fit her Indian body — so she made her own. With no design background but an obsession for function, she created pieces from scratch. Kannav handled everything behind the scenes to make sure her vision reached women who needed it.
