Womens Nike Pro 365 5" Shorts - Black

I’ve owned Nike Pro’s for just about as long as I remember. Growing up playing soccer, I wasn’t playing a second without my trusty Pro’s, as they provided a much needed extra layer of protection from shifting soccer shorts while running. A true testament to their durability, I still have several pairs of those Pro’s from my soccer days, and years later, I still rely on them just as much for things like cycling, running, and under the occasional dress for comfort. When I got my hands on this new pair, I was really excited to see if the quality I’d grown to love was still there, and I was not let down. The Nike Pro’s have been and will continue to be a staple in my closet for both athletic and everyday occasions.

Growing up playing soccer, I wasn’t playing a second without my trusty Pro’s, as they provided a much needed extra layer of protection from shifting soccer shorts while running. A true testament to their durability, I still have several pairs of those Pro’s from my soccer days, and years later, I still rely on them just as much for things like cycling, running, and under the occasional dress for comfort. When I got my hands on this new pair, I was really excited to see if the quality I’d grown to love was still there, and I was not let down. The Nike Pro’s have been and will continue to be a staple in my closet for both athletic and everyday occasions. The only minor gripe I do have is that for longer wear, the waistband can get a bit constricting if sitting for long periods of time, but through my experience, this can be alleviated by sizing up slightly.

I had high hopes for these shorts but was disappointed. Originally I purchased a size small which I wear in other Nike shorts but they were too small and gave me muffin top. I exchanged them for a medium and wore them to the gym for a strength workout. They looked great when I put them on but once I started moving, the legs rolled up, they gave me major camel toe, and the waist band rolled down. I also noticed the fabric in the waist band started fraying on the first wear. I was really hoping these would work but will be returning the other colors I purchased.

The Nike Pro shorts are a staple for every wardrobe. I've had my shorts for around a year and I would definitely say that they met my expectations, but didn't exceed them. I find them the best undergarment for under a skirt or dress when you just want a little more coverage. However, they aren't too practical for running as they do ride up quite easily. They aren't the most durable shorts as the waistband gets stretched quickly and over time remains stretched and loose. Overall I would say that these are a necessary piece of clothing to have in your wardrobe, but not the most practical for intense exercise!
