Nike Swift

The Nike DriFit Swift HR 7/8 Tight with an all over print, felt silky smooth, looked fun (and a bit crazy with the all over print), and felt great to pull on. I love that the leggings have pockets, however, those pockets were not functional when actually running. If just wearing the leggings to walk around or go through normal life the pockets are wonderful. However, when I actually used the pockets to hold my phone during running, it pulled the tights down, and they lost their tight feel and I spent time having to pull them up while running. It was an annoying to have to deal with while trying to run. Overall, I liked the look and feel of the fabric. I like the pockets. I liked how high waisted they were. If I could change anything it would be how the use of the pockets affected the performance of the leggings.

Wearing the leggings during my workout was refreshing. The leggings stayed in place allowing me to conduct my workout seamlessly without having to stop to pull them up all the time. The material was buttery soft and simultaneously snatching. The legging style and material are compressive without being restrictive or uncomfortable. The cut of the leggings allowed for a better fit and felt high quality as it hugs my figure. The pockets at the side and waistband allowed me to carry my phone while running. The ventilation behind the knees helps keep me cool while working out. The leggings are flattering and functional making them a staple to my workout wardrobe.

I always opt for comfy clothing when running errands with my toddler. These leggings are definitely comfortable and breathable! The fabric feels cool on the skin which is a plus during the summer time or when working out. It does fit true to size. I am 5’2, about 104 lbs, the 7/8 length is still a bit long on me, almost to my ankles. The waistband has draw strings that you can loosen or tighten, which is a plus. I do think the design of the print isn’t my style, I’m more of a neutral/solid color styles, hence why I put 4 stars. I like that it has pockets which makes it super convenient when I’m occupied with holding my baby, I have somewhere to put my phone! I like that the waist does go up high enough to cover your stomach, post-partum body still in the building. It has holes on both legs by the shin area which makes the leggings feel super breathable. Overall, if it was a solid color or more neutral pattern, I’d probably like it more.
