HOLY. SMOKES.
Have I found the most comfortable and form fitting running pants, like, ever?!
Australian activewear LSKD, based in Qld, claims to ‘hug you in all the right places’…and yes. Yes it does. Yes it does hug me in all the right places.
The LSKD Women’s Fusion Full Length Legging has one of my favourite features in a running pants leg – a high rise fold over waistband with pockets. There’s no seam in the front, so the chance of a ‘camel toe’ is pretty much not on the table, and the material is, in the words of Sean Paul, ‘…smooth, just like-a silk’ made out of 70% polyester and 30% elastane.
Out on the trails in the Fusion Full Length Leggings, comfort was supreme. No falling down at the crotch, length was perfect for those colder mornings, and my keys and phone were held firmly in place.
I also had a chance to review LSKD’s Fusion Mid-Length Bike Shorts in the Auburn colour, which is fast becoming one of the brand’s best sellers in the lead up to summer. Again, comfort reigns supreme in these (70% polyester, 30% elastane) with 4-way stretch fabric, soft matte finish, and a fold over waistband. These are so versatile, they’ll become your new fave go-to pair for everything – trail runs, gym, cycling, and even everyday wear, with absolutely no worries about sweat marks. You can also get ones to suit your personality with a range of colours (Auburn, Blush Leopard, Black, Navy, Spark Pink and Flamingo).
Essentially, LSKD are true to size once you measure yourself according to their online size chart and for a guide, I’d say their worded sizes translate to the following numerals: S(8), M(10), L(12), XL(14), 2XL(16) and 3XL(18).
The fabric on both the Women’s Fusion Full Length Legging and Fusion Mid-Length Bike Shorts is top notch quality, whilst the entire LSKD brand is inspired by a streetwear aesthetic. And you know when sometimes you put on a pair of running tights and they just don’t quite look right? LSKD are flattering on all size legs and pocket life is real.
The bottom line? The most comfy, hug-me-tighter run pants I’ve ever trailed in.
