Review on Pockets & Style: Women'S Tennis Skirts With Shorts For Ultimate Activewear Performance by Frank Garahana

I love the pleating in the back and the shorts underneath are comfortable. The pockets are fantastic. The only problem is the waist. The ridiculously wide elastic is not well thought out. For small people, the proportion of waist to hip measurement is not the same as for larger sizes. I am a straight/apple body shape, top-heavy but small (I'm 5'2" and 120 lbs). For me, wearing a size SMALL, the undershorts in this skirt are actually a bit loose but the elastic in the waistband is super tight. It is also wider than my actual waist, so the top sits on my lower ribs and the bottom catches my hip bones. This results in an awkward cinch in the center that almost looks like a pillow cinched in the middle. I ended up just cutting a small hole in the covering fabric of the waistband, and then just cutting the wide elastic band inside apart. That made the skort much more comfortable and did not impact the function at all (meaning, it does not slide down when I run).
