Reviews

Running tights

"Really nice quality and material. As a larger runner in xl I feel like they could be slightly longer in the bigger sizes. With the silicon they don’t ride up and really got at stopping chafing. Would really like a 2n1 shorts with this as the liner."

Campbell S. (3/5)

Great compression!

"I find a lot of running compression shorts don’t have enough actual compression - these are excellent - this is my 3rd pair as I run 4-5 times a week - they have two good side pockets that keep your phone or gels firmly in place (no bouncing) and the zippered back pocket takes an extra gel or two. The grip “tape” at the bottom of the shorts means they don’t ride up. I highly recommend these!"

Tim S. (5/5)

Great quality, good compression and

"Great quality, good compression and really comfy to wear when out running. Side pockets are a good size plus having the back pocket for keys etc is super handy too."

Derryk B. (5/5)

Race Day 8

"Awesome short tights. They don’t move and feel amazing on. About to race in them at Hyrox Syd can’t wait. 🤜🤛"

Roberto P. (5/5)

Comfy as!

"Great pair of running tights, they run a tad small so would suggest sizing up. I’m usually a M but got a L and they fit perfectly. Great for race day!"
