Nike Stride

The Nike Stride Men’s Dri-FIT 1/2-Length Running Tights were extremely comfortable and felt great during workouts. The fabric is lightweight, breathable, and moves naturally without feeling restrictive, which made them easy to wear for running or indoor training sessions like the Peloton. The fit felt supportive and secure, and I could see myself wearing these often as a performance base layer under shorts for outdoor runs. On their own, the fit is definitely more revealing in the front than I personally prefer for wearing in public, so I would likely style them with shorts over top for a little more coverage and confidence. The design feels streamlined and performance-focused. I really liked that they stayed in place during movement and didn’t require constant adjusting, which is exactly what you want from running gear. My favorite part was the comfort and functionality. The only thing I would change would be adding a little more structure or coverage in the front panel to make them feel more versatile when wearing alone. Overall, these are a great training piece that I would reach for regularly, especially for layering, running, and cycling.

The oversized shirt with half length tights is the most on-trend look in running fashion at the moment. Although I almost only wear 5” shorts, these 7” stride tights have me believing in the hype. Plenty of pockets and waist drawstrings that aren’t absurdly long round out the features that really make these great all-around. I had no chafing with these tights whatsoever and considering how hot and humid it’s been in Florida, that’s a godsend.

I know these compression shorts are designed for men, but as a woman with large legs, these are a must! I am so glad I decided to give these men‘s shorts a try! Women’s spandex typically ride up, and even biker shorts aren’t exactly tight enough to stay on my thighs without riding up. These shorts, however, are absolutely perfect! They look great under running shorts and basketball shorts. I wear them on runs and even to the gym under my running shorts for a more secure and comfortable outfit. I like the breathable material and I appreciate that these have a small pocket perfect for holding my chapstick when on a run if the running shorts I wear over don’t have any pockets. I also love the blue color I got! It’s awesome! So, again, while these are advertised as men’s shorts, ladies out there with muscular thighs who also have an issue with spandex and biker shorts riding up, these are a life saver! They didn’t budge once!
