does anyone have it? I want it like it's my job.

I'm thinking of getting it and the jacket for myself for christmas/birthday.

Is it worth it? I live in Cleveland. It snows october through may here. sometimes. it would so get used. I skipped my group run this morning because I didn't want to run in the cold and i will do the TM later in a skirt.

does it come with the pants, or is it just the skirt--why dont you just out a pair of running tights under the skirts you already have--might be cheaper? But, I know how you love your skirts, and how exciting it is to get new stuff-----just saying it might be faster to do it your self, and than order it...

it's the combo.

i've been putting my yoga pants under my skirts and it looks terrible.

i'm not so sure wear to get tights for running. they would have to be funky and cute.

did my dh call you and tell you to talk me out of it!?!?!!?

I have the ToughGirl. I love it! Size down on the bottoms if you get it. The fabric is so buttery smooth. I wore it comfortably in 28F degree temps. And I looked hawt.

You want funky running tights? Try this: www.runningfunky.com.

If you've got the tights, what's the point of the skirt? (Not being obnoxious. I'm really curious.)

The point of the skirt is to look hawt.

If you can afford it go for it. I am not getting one because I have Javier. I don't need tights for Javier. I just wear a summer skirt.

I have it and LOVE it! I've worn it in cold temps and it does the job. I agree with Nettie, size down on the bottoms.

I have pink. And seriously, the waist will fall if you don't size down and the pants are very stretchy.

ok. you guys are polluting me cause i had a dream about them last night!!!!! LOL. I think you should buy them

I only wear tights for my long runs and they have to be race ready to hoard all my food in them, so i have no reason to buy these, but SUPER CUTE. I did see someone at MCM wearing them.

I buy the Nike running skirts, I have two and love them. They are black with red piping (one) and white piping(the other). I bought a pair of UA cold gear tights (also black) to wear under them. Skirt $50 ea, Tights $50. They also had some cute running skirts at Dicks (Also Nike but funky colors) for about $30.
Am I just ghetto? The Nike material is very smooth, extremely comfy and tech....oh yeah...and hawt.

I have the Tough Girl top and LOVE it. Probably the same fabric; so soft and wonderful.

Interesting that you gals are recommending sizing down on the bottoms when I usually have to size up in this brand.

Yeah, that shocked me, too, but it's true. Size down or they will be falling off your tush.
