Review on Women'S Athletic Skort Lightweight Running Tennis Golf Workout Skirt With Pockets & Inner Shorts By NAVISKIN by Tim Clark

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for every day AND running/working out!

I have purchased this in both medium and small. The Medium I purchased about a year ago and the small recently. First I want to talk about fit. I am 5’6”. When I purchased the Medium, i was about 145 lbs. I tend to gain it all over as apposed to in the hips or waist. The medium was snug at the time. The waist was a tad too snug for me. It also fell about an inch above my belly button which I can’t stand. I folded the waist over and had it sit on my hip bones. This made it much more comfortable for me. I noticed that the way the shorts behaved changed on my body composition. When i first got them I was light on muscle and my legs were a bit giggly. I found that when my legs were flabby the shorts liked to scoot up and would not stay down. As I gained muscle and they firmed up the legs started staying where they should be. I have found this to be true of any spandex type of short at this length. Those who have the rolling/sliding issue either need to firm up or find a short that has a 5 inch inseam to be happy.After losing weight i noticed that the waist was more comfortable but the shorts gave a lot less compression in the hips and thighs. I am now 128 lbs and my waist is 31inches and my hips are 37inches. I ordered a small to accommodate my new size and they fit nicely as compression running shorts should. The waist is still too tall for my liking. I wish they had a low rise option. They have held up well with washing and hang to dry. The skirt length is perfect to me. The short inseam is 3 inches and stretches to about 4 inches when worn. The skirt falls at the edge of the shorts (almost feels shorter but you can’t see the shorts) which is perfect.I love these so much I wear them every day. The side pockets are big enough and stretch fantastically to safely accommodate my large cellphone (S8+ with room) car keys, small wallet and i could hold more if I choose to use the zippered portion in the back but since i fold them down, that pocket is pretty useless to me. I can go out purse free and have my hands free. Greatest thing ever! I love the medium for every day and lounging around the house but at this point I need the small for running and the extra compression.

Pros
  • I love it . So comfortable
Cons
  • The sizing may run small or large, causing confusion for purchasers
