Just back, wore the most comfortable shorts!

[carren66]

We just got back from a wonderful trip and I had to share my personal best find for ladies. I wore running skirts from Target the whole time and they were fantastic. They have little built in shorts, are light weight, cool and dry fast after Splash Mountain and Kali River rapids. It didn't hurt that they looked pretty cute too, lol.

I am not "ahem" tiny, at 5'8" and 215 pounds. These skirts aren't clingy and fall really nicely. Just a simple tank or t-shirt on the top and you're ready for the parks. I took 3 of them and two other pairs of shorts and only wore the running skirts.

Here's a link to what they look like: http://www.target.com/C9-Champion-R...e=UTF8&index=target&rh=k:running skirt&page=1

Thanks for the tip!

I wanted to try these and I'm so glad you posted a review. Now I'm definitely going to buy some for my trip! And just for the summer in general .

I may need to get a pair, as they're only $20.

I saw those and wondered if they would feel good. I thought they were cute, so I might pick up a pair or two.

Just a quick personal question. I have "rubenesque" thighs. Did the shorts underneath "rub" at all?

 

[carren66]

LOL, I'm a little "rubenesque" myself. The shorts didn't rub, but they did rise up my thighs a bit. I've always had the rubbing problem. This time I used the body glide that was suggested on this board or a little stick deoderant and had no chafing problems.

Thanks so much for posting about these! I will be "running" out to get some

They look cute! Thanks for the heads-up, do they have them in the store as well as online? And do they come in other colors aside from the pink/black?

 

[carren66]

Yes I found them in the store and there were several different colors. In fact, this weekend I'm picking up a couple more for the summer. They also have really cute coordinating tops, but those showed my "rolls" a little too much for my comfort, lol.

I forgot to mention that one of the best things about them was the comfortable stretch after a couple of our wonderful dinners, lol.

Also if anyone was wondering they range in size up to XXL.

does anyone have pics of wearing them? you can never tell how they look on real people haha

 

[carren66]

Send me youe email and I'll send you an invitation to view our photopass photos. You can see the skirt in a couple of pictures. Most of the time I'm standing behind the kids, lol.

I tried these as well as something similar from Wal-Mart by Danskin and I hated that the biking short thing underneath rode up my thighs when I walked and ended up bunched between my legs. I couldn't stand it just walking around in the dressing room! I bought the Danskin ones from Wal-Mart because they fit me better and I cut the short out of them, and I'll wear them with a swimsuit bottom underneath for modesty. They had black and navy and were only $12.
