The Runsie additionally has pockets all the way in which across the waistband, with loads of storage for a cellphone, snacks, a comfortable flask, and even a rolled-up further layer. However my favourite function is the shorts, that are break up within the entrance for mobility and protection. (In different phrases, whenever you take a step ahead and open the break up, your higher thigh is uncovered—slightly than your butt, as is the case with most break up shorts.)
I sometimes don’t run in break up shorts as a result of they have a tendency to experience up, and these had been no totally different. However I used to be impressed at how minimally they crept up all through my run, and that they didn’t chafe. In contrast to different shorts that I’m continually having to tug out of my crotch, these didn’t hassle me (though they did expose just about my whole higher thigh.)
And if a one-piece conjures nightmares of wrestling along with your outfit in a cramped rest room stall, haven’t any concern: The Runsie is fast and simple to tug on and off throughout a pit cease.
The Go Additional Bra
The Go Additional Bra is billed as a high-impact, maximum-support bra for these with C or D cup sizes. The thought is that these bras are sometimes so compressive and uncomfortable that you just need to rip them off as quickly as you’re accomplished working—however now, in response to Lululemon, consolation and efficiency don’t really must be at odds.
The Go Additional Bra seeks to realize this steadiness with some proprietary know-how that sounds cool, however stays considerably mysterious. Lululemon says the bra has “motion-activated help” that kicks in whenever you’re transferring and relaxes whenever you’re hanging out post-run. I did discover that after I first put the bra on, it felt tremendous snug in a approach that made me doubt its credentials as a maximum-support bra. However on the run, it was surprisingly supportive, particularly contemplating it’s by no means compressive. Like with the Runsie, I’d be curious to listen to suggestions from runners with bigger chests than me, however personally I discovered it to be a lot supportive sufficient.
The bra’s material is gentle and silky—I doubt it’s even able to chafing. One factor to notice: It was absolutely saturated with sweat after my extremely popular and humid runs (although, to be honest, I believe any bra would have been).
The Excessive-Rise Race Tight

The Excessive-Rise Race Tight
The Excessive-Rise Race Tight is probably the most comparable piece to Lululemon’s present choices, with one main improve: It has tons of pockets. There are pockets throughout the waistband, plus a pocket on every leg.
The tights are created from Lululemon’s Nulux material, which is comfortable, cool, and breathable, and I doubt would ever chafe. They don’t have any seams on the within of the legs, making them additional chafe-proof, or an inside drawstring—as an alternative, there’s velvet flocking on the within for some further grip. I didn’t expertise any sagging or slippage on my runs, however I’m wondering if I’ll begin wishing for a drawcord after some wears and washes.
