The Runsie additionally has pockets all the best way across the waistband, with loads of storage for a telephone, snacks, a comfortable flask, and even a rolled-up further layer. However my favourite characteristic is the shorts, that are cut up within the entrance for mobility and protection. (In different phrases, if you take a step ahead and open the cut up, your higher thigh is uncovered—moderately than your butt, as is the case with most cut up shorts.)
I sometimes don’t run in cut 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. Not like different shorts that I’m continuously having to tug out of my crotch, these didn’t hassle me (though they did expose just about my complete higher thigh.)
And if a one-piece conjures nightmares of wrestling along with your outfit in a cramped toilet stall, haven’t any worry: 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 concept is that these bras are sometimes so compressive and uncomfortable that you simply need to rip them off as quickly as you’re finished operating—however now, based on Lululemon, consolation and efficiency don’t truly must be at odds.
The Go Additional Bra seeks to attain this stability with some proprietary expertise that sounds cool, however stays considerably mysterious. Lululemon says the bra has “motion-activated assist” that kicks in if you’re shifting and relaxes if you’re hanging out post-run. I did discover that after I first put the bra on, it felt tremendous comfy in a means 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 lots supportive sufficient.
The bra’s cloth is mild and silky—I doubt it’s even able to chafing. One factor to notice: It was totally saturated with sweat after my very 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 is essentially the most related 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 made out of Lululemon’s Nulux cloth, 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 inner drawstring—as a substitute, 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.
