IRun Athletic Wear Winter Running Outfit Review & Giveaway

I connected with Irun Athletic Wear (HERE) on Facebook a few weeks back. It was nice to see another fun and girly running company, not only marketing cute products for women, but women of all sizes. It’s comforting to see that we are not all expected to be stick then runners and can embrace our curves in some stylish gear. The Irun Athletic Wear is available in sizes Small - 3X.

Nestled in the Rocky Mountain region, iRun Athletic Wear was started with a mission to create the perfect running skirt, tight and hoodie combination that compliments all female body shapes and sizes. Their fun and comfortable athletic gear combines affordable prices with great styles and provides their unique slimming fabric that works perfectly with your body! iRun Athletic Wear’s outfits can be used year round and are specifically designed to wick away moisture and sweat to keep you going on the trail or in the gym.

The pieces are sold separately, but right now Irun Athletic Wear is offering the 2012 Winter Bundle (HERE). The bundle includes the Hoodie, Skirt/Tights (also referred to as Skights) and a FREE Performance T-Shirt. You pay only $65 and save $15 off of the listed price of $80.

I tried this gear out while running both outside (30 degree temps) and inside. It held up great in the cooler temps, as well as on the treadmill at the gym.

Black Skight With White Racer Stripe (HERE)

Details Black skirt/white racer stripes with black fitted tights sewn in. The fabric is 92% polyester with 8% spandex blend

The Skight is AWESOME! I love that I didn’t have to layer a separate running skirt and running tights combination. I just put one article on and was set. I was sent a size medium, since I tend to wear a medium on the bottom. When I put the leggings on, I was a little concerned that the Skight wasn’t going to fit my curvy body. The legs of the tights were very snug (similar to my compression socks) at first. But once I got the bottom of the tights on and worked on them (similar to nylons), they fit like a glove. I was very impressed by how the fabric embraced my curves perfectly. And they were super comfortable; did not “cut-me-off” in my curvy places. The tights were comfortable outside and inside, however they wouldn’t have kept me too warm if the temperatures were any cooler (below 30 degrees). I would need a thicker pair of tights to keep me warm. The skirt is sold with racer stripes and without. The Skight could also use a pocket or two, to store all of your running essentials. I really hope that they start offering patterns someday. I can already think of a ton of bold patterns I’d love to run around in!

Long Sleeve Black Hoodie - White Zippers (HERE)

Long sleeve black technical hoodie with white contrast 1/4 zipper and white pocket zipper. The fabric is a 92% polyester, 8% spandex blend.

This hoodie is also sold with black zippers, but I like how the white zippers really “pop” and add to the outfit. The angled pocket also is quite different. The jacket was great when paired with the performance tee and kept me comfortable during my runs outside and inside. I definitely look forward to layering with this hoodie in my springtime training runs. A size medium was fine, even with layering underneath. I hope they offer it in more colros soon!

FREE Performance T-shirt (HERE)

Black Performance t-shirt short sleeve. This great t-shirt features the iRun Athletic Wear Logo screened on the front. The fabric is 92% polyester with 8% spandex blend.

I loved the fit of this shirt. I liked how it was fitted for the female body, but wasn’t too tight. It fit my curves in all of the right places. I typically wear a medium top and it fit me fine, even after washing and drying. The length is awesome and perfect, as many of my running tops tend to ride up, especially after putting quite a few miles in. The logo on the front is a lot of fun, too.
