WISH Discount at Runningskirts.com CONTINUES for ONE WEEK (May 20)

[postesf]

HI guys!!! When I got home last night, my skirts were in! Yay! The Mini dot is cute, but that style just doesn't fit my shape right now. It's a size 6 and I'm sending it back... The other one was the black athletic style w/ the shorts underneath. That one fit great! The shorts are bit lose and the waist could be taken in just a bit for a better fit. I think I'm going to have my mom take a "tuck" in the shorts to make them tighter and do the same in the waist of the skirt. I can't down a size or it would be too tight on my tummy...Not a pretty site! I was actually surprised at how well it fit!!! I'm so excited!

I hope everyone is having a good experience with theirs. I really had my doubts they would fit me. I'm so glad I found a style that works!

I ordered the black with white stripe. I only ordered one because I wasn't sure of the sizing and I'm not used to a skirt with a brief. I only have the ones with the compression shorts from another company.
I was a little nervous about how the 20% credit would work. But shortly after ordering I got my confirmation email then a little while later the "credit'' email came through.

I just noticed that I got my WISH credit back too.

After 20 minutes of PayPal not wanting to let me change my billing options or address I finally ordered my skirt! Just one, the running skirt in chocqua. I figured this gives me plenty of time to order another if I decide I love it. It's still too cold here to wear it out though, me thinks.

I wore my compression shorts today for my 6 mile and they did very good. Had some rubbing from the seams on the thighs. I am going to try Body Glide there next time, but that seam may "soften' with a few runs through the washer too.

Overall a good skirt. Once I run in the brief I am going to order at least one more!

Just ordered my athletic skirt in chocolate. Thanks for getting the group discount.

Oh, just a tip to those of you new to skirts, I never dry mine. I let them air dry - I am afraid of them snagging.

Here's a question: Are you supposed to wear underwear with the ones with the built in briefs??

LOL - I don't know what you're supposed to do, but I'll be wearing undies with mine!

 

[tigger2esq]

is this TMI? lol. but I never wear undies with my running shorts with the built in briefs. its much more comfy for me. I suppose its whatever works for you.

my new skirt arrived on Friday and I LOVE it. it is a bit shorter in length than my new balance one but it looks awesome!! I have a 5k race this weekend so my plan is to break it out for its racing debut.

Yay! I got my Minnie skirt this weekend!

As for teh underwear discussion, I'm thinking teh briefs that come with the Minnei one are a bit brrzie for no undies. A somewhat loose mesh-type fabric.

 

[cdn_gal_eeyore]

Yeah..er...I'm an undies girl despite the briefs.

So, I just broke down and bought a maternity running skirt. Probably too big right now, but I can't predict my needs by the Minnie... and I just ate some cookies. Promise me if I'm still wearing it by whatever replaces the Minnie next year, you will all stage a WISH intervention!

All the pictures on the web site show these skirts as sitting way below the waist. Is that the case? I definitely am an "old fogie" on this--I just hate stuff sitting below the waist (get too low and you can see my nice vertical C-section scar!)

Hi Maura...

I'm not sure if I bought too small...but mine sits WAY low on the waist. For reference, I typically wear a size 4 petite so I bought the size 2 running skirt. I love the material...it's silky and very comfy. But the skirt easily sits about 2 inches below my waist if not a little more than that. I think the athletic cut style sits a little higher up on the waist based on what they said in the video. I probably should have bought that style since I may feel like tugging my skirt up all the time LOL!

This is what I'm thinking. Thanks for the replies. I was a little hesitant to ask I can't wait to get mine!

So, I did my LR today in the running skirt. I put body glide on my thighs, but I still have a nice chaffed area on my thighs. I wore the athletic skirt to walk the other day, but I still had rubbing too. I don't know what to do. I might have to find some tight compression shorts to go under the running skirt, since i like the length of the running one.

 

[wtpclc]

Maura - Most skirts fit below teh waist. My triks that I wore Sunday was about the highest I've found. However, my shirts tend to cover up anything I don't want shown.

Morgan - I love my UA compression shorts. I plan on wearing those with my Minnie skirt.

 

[twoWDWfools]

Maura - I bought the athletic skirt and it sits a little below the waist but not so much that it feels like it's falling off. Actually is quite comfy.

 

[postesf]

I'm rather short, but the athletic skirt fit great for me. It was not too low on the waist for me. I bought one of each and the running skirt just didn't do it for me. I could tell it was cut a bit differently. The girls on the video looked really tall to me so I crossed my fingers they would fit.

My shorts underneath kept riding up, but I think it's because they were too lose. I'm planning on asking my mom to take them in just a bit right there at the bottom to see if that will help keep them down.

yep the running skirt does seem to be meant to sit low on the waist. I originally wasnt a big fan of low waist shorts etc. but when I started running longer distances I found myself rolling over the waistband in my shorts to make them sit lower. it was more comfortable for me. I wear longer length shirts to cover my stomach becuase its not somethign I want to be showing off! LOL
