Nike Academy+

Feet get caught in the lower leg lining when putting them on. Material does not feel woven, is more of a “wind pants” material. Rise on pants feels wrong. Need to pull pants very high to get some freedom of movement, and still feels very restrictive in crotch as if pants will split while walking.

Pros: The actual design is nice and it looks good, having a somewhat “baggy look” to it while not actually being too baggy as it’s double lined so the inner lining gives it a fitted feeling which I like. It also has a secure zip for both side pockets. I also like the warm feeling with the mesh lining inside, with somewhat wind breaking benefit. It’s also true to size with good length, ending just at or below the ankle. Cons: It has a very restrictive shape and fit while doing any kind of movement. I have medium here and sizing up to large would make it feel too big as the actual size is true to my size but the problem lies with the fit. It doesn’t have much stretch and with the restrictive shape moving in certain directions is very uncomfortable and feels like that area would tear. Overall, wearing it for general use is fine and feels comfortable, however with this being made with the intention of football wear, I wouldn’t recommend as even the lightest of extra movement or stretch beyond the walking range makes it tight and pulls in different areas.

These pants look cool and are a great color! My husband says they are comfortable, but they are not the most comfortable pant he has! The pants look great with sneakers or Birkenstocks and are great for a light workout/walk.
