tennis wear - reviews

Love It!
Love Love Love this top! I absolutely love the 2 pockets in the back, great for tennis balls, I Pod etc. but not obtrusive in any way. I'm 5'9 160lbs, this top provided plenty of support on top and a great weight fabric that keeps everything firm. I think I sold 3 people on it, get lots of compliments when I wear it. I ordered it in 3 other colors!

Very nice tank!
Beautifully made. Fits great. love the pockets in back--perfect for tennis balls!

PERFECT for tennis!!
I love this top! It is supportive enough for tennis (I am a 34D) but the thing I love the most is the side/back pockets! They easily hold two balls each without being crowded or difficult to get out. It beats having to tuck balls in my shorts or skirt. I am ordering a second one in another color I love it so much!

So comfortable!
Bought this for tennis and I love playing in it. Lots of compliments on the Kelly green, tho I would call it more olive in hue. Usually wear a 2 petite (5' 2", 107 lbs, 34C bra), so this is a bit too long. Fit is extremely comfortable; no binding, not too revealing, and you don't have to wrestle with it to take it off as you do with most fitted, built in support tops.

BEST Tennis Top EVER!!!
I've been on a years long search for a good tennis top and finally found it! This top offers the perfect amount of support - I fully expected to have to wear a sports bra under it when I bought it (I'm between a D and DD) but, to my pleasant surprise, it keeps the 'girls' perfectly in their place. I'm not sure how it would be for something higher impact like running, but for tennis it is perfect. Even BETTER, the pockets have totally changed my life. I hated having to shove tennis balls into the shorts of my tennis skirts all the time and then take them out seconds later. It's just not a flattering guesture and is an annoyance to boot. Each pocket in the back of this shirt (there are 2) can hold an entire can of tennis balls. I'm the envy of everyone in my tennis clinic. I'm making them all buy one because they keep asking me to hold the balls. The only downside to this top is the price - ouch!

Best. Top. Ever. 3 Reasons
1. This top supports better than any sports bra I've ever had! Reviewers have noted that it is difficult to get on and off, but it's worth it since it holds everything in place so well. 2. Pockets in the back. Perfect for housekeys. 3. Great cut around the arms. Plenty of movement for sports like tennis or softball. I'll be purchasing more of these! I find it really helpful when people share their size, so for those of you who also find it helpful (5'1'', 125).

Great top
Ordered this in the purple color and I love it. I am a 36C with broad shoulders but still ordered a small and it fits well. I wanted it on the snug side so I could play tennis in it. I've only worn it for Pilates and it felt great. Love the 2 pockets on the back of the shirt. The photo makes the shirt look as though it bells out at the bottom, but it does not. Liked it so much I bought it in another color!

love this top
THis is my second one to order. I love it - has great support for running and tennis. The back pockets make it also perfect for cycling.

Great Top
Great top - I usually do not like tanks with build in bras. I never find enough support or the tank is just too tight around the middle. This one I like! Great for running, tennis and biking!

Love this shirt!
This shirt is great. I love the color (got the bright blue), and love the fit. I am 5 ft 7 and had to get a tall because I like my shirts to sit closer to the hip. That worked out great. I wear it for running, gym, and tennis - looks nice with a grey tennis skirt I got from Athleta. Only downside was that I still need to wear a light bra with it - it wasn't as good support as some of the other bra tanks.

Great tank, Great customer service!!
I ordered the PR Tank in White (S) - I'm 5'2" - and it's been fabulous for running, tennis and bootcamp. I've been washing it in the washing machine and then hanging it up to dry. Recently when I took off the tank, I could hear the elastic band of the inner shelf bra, sort of rip/snag and the thread that attaches the fabric to the elastic band started to unravel a little. When I washed it again, the elastic band was almost completely separated from the bra and with lots of unraveled thread. SO I called Athleta customer service and they immediately placed an order for another PR Tank in White and they will refund me the total price once they receive the defective one back. I will definitely order more of these in the future!! (I'm only giving 4 out of 5 stars because of this issue, and expected the tank to last longer than 8 months, but it really deserves 5 stars for the fit, quality and comfort!)

tennis wear - reviews

Great little skort
I play ... 4-5 times a week and am always looking for durable ... wear. This little skort is perfect for ... price was right. This is my second Athleta skort for ... recommend Athleta active wear to all my friends. Thanks!

Great Skort
I'm 5'4" and curvy. ... skirts are generally much too short for me to feel comfortable, but this skort is wonderful. I play ... least 2x per week and always look forward to ... them (I have three in different colors). The undershort is very lightweight, breathable, and comfortable. The only drawback is that the short is a little loose on my leg and rides up, but this could be because I'm between sizes and sized up. I can still use it to hold ... balls, so it's not that bad. I am going to look into applying a little bit of sport elastic & this should do the trick (too bad the skort doesn't have this as a feature). I love the drawstring waist. Highly recommended!

Love it!!
Love this skort...I was looking for something other than the regular ... skirts sold in pro shops or ... websites, and this exceeded my expectations. I am middle aged and don't really like the short skirts, the length of this is perfect. I also like the "breathability" of the short lining, in south TX it is hot more days than not and this skort will keep me cooler and drier whether ... playing ... am going to tell all my friends and order myself another.

A gem!
This skirt is so great, both in terms of form and function! Let's start with aesthetics. The A line cut is adorable and would flatter any body. The pleating gives this skort a girly vibe, but the minimalism of the pleats, coupled with the neat contrast stitch details keeps the look very modern. Now for function: my two favorite features of this skort are the range of movement it allows and ... the incredible BREATHABILITY! The ... portion of this garment as well as the little compression shorts underneath are made of different, but equally well chosen and lightweight materials. The ... thick enough to be durable, and yet it whirls when in motion, airing out the skin underneath. Since the ... overlays the shorts and thus gives ample coverage, the shorts are crafted from the airiest of athletic fabrics. As someone who sweats a lot, I cannot say how fabulous this feature is. I can perform a full range of movements while getting plenty of breeze circulated to my lower body, and without worrying about anybody on the court, on the street, or in the gym catching a glimpse of my more private parts. That brings me to my next happy discovery, i.e., the versatility of this skort. I bought it for ... but it has become ... go to item for anything I would normally wear athletic shorts for: ... outside, hiking (with enough bug spray and in a no tic area), in the-gym cardio, and even some in the-gym strength training, if you're the type who can do without compression shorts/pants on some days. It would also be a great staple for casual team sports events, like a friendly ultimate frisbee or volleyball game. I did find this skort to ... little big. I normally wear an XS, and I'm going to keep the size I got, although if I buy again (likely!), I will probably size down to XXS. The skort was mostly too loose in the waist/hips, but the drawstring allows me to ... XS comfortably without fear of sagging or unintended mooning. This skort hits at a really nice place for me, a little bellow mid thigh, however that said, I am quite short (5'0"), so it may be too short for taller ladies. Okay, just one more hurrah, I promise: absolutely no chaffing! Have fun with this gem, ladies :-)

Grass Court Nationals
Mandatory all white dress attire. Looking for a skirt that I could wear in ... competition with built in short for butt coverage and a place to tuck at least one ... ball. These skirts are made for athletes unlike ... brands that are made for models. Look forward to looking good and feeling comfortable at National 45's women competition.

Skort Reveiw
Really lovely color, and it feels very light in the heat of Florida. I use it for ... but it was advertised for ... perfect for ... except that the lining garment is mesh and doe s not hold the the second ... ball as firmly as I would like. However, the mesh was not designed to hold a ... ball, but the mesh is very good for not trapping moisture. If offered in other colors, I would buy them in a NY minute.

Great for ...
I really like this skirt. I bought it to play ... material isn't as thick as other ... skirts but it is a nice lightweight fabric. The mesh shorts are comfortable and didn't ride too bad. Also, it was good for holding extra ... balls. I would recommend this skirt and I hope to get it in more colors soon.

Just what I was hoping for...
I'm 5' 7", 130 lbs., and a 40-year old stay at home mom of two school aged kids (to give you an idea of my shape, shall we say). My figure is what you might call "curvy," especially through the hips and butt. Based on other reviewer's advice, I ordered this skirt in a small, which is a perfect fit. I ordered two colors, white and Kauai blue, and love them both, very comfortable and lightweight as others have suggested. FYI, look closely at the pictures, the white has turquoise accent threading along the front pleats, the blue has lime green accent threading, which provides a slight challenge in terms of finding a "matching" top. Other than that, I'm very happy with the purchase. I ordered these skirts for ... me, they look like ... skirts (as opposed to something you'd throw on to ... errands or work out). One caveat, I have not actually played ... either skirt yet, but from moving around in them, they seem to be up to the task. So four stars until I know how well ... perform on the court.

cute
I bought this mainly for ... walking. It is very cute and fabric is fine except for the under ... very thin for ... tucking a ball. I will probably just ... walking. I am 5'3'' 110lbs and bought the XS which fit perfect.

Just what I was looking for!
Love the fit, color and light weight of the fabric. Plan to wear it to play ... style allows for easy movement. I have brought several ... outfits in the past and loved most of them.... am disappointed in the small number of ... appropriate items over the past year.

I bought a Med as that is what I usually ... Nike ... clothes. This ... more like a large in that brand. It is a well made ... really liked the length, I have long legs and so many ... so ...

Swagger Skort

Swagger Skort

The ultimate sport skort puts a swagger in your step with lightweight mesh and a sweet layered design.

tennis wear - reviews

Favorite tennis skirt ever!
Purchased the Swagger Skort in black for tennis and find I am ... more than any of the other tennis skirts I own. The undershorts are somewhat tight and grippy, which is good because ... balls don't fall out and there are no issues with the shorts riding up while playing. The undershorts are vastly superior to those in my N*ke skirts...I'm always having to tug those down during a match. One thing though...this skirt runs very large. I have a narrow waist but big hips, and usually take an M or L, but had to size down to an S in this skirt. Overall though (and to mix sports terms), Athleta is knocking it out of the park on ... skirts!

Best Skort Ever!!!
I love this skort! I play ... wanted a skirt that didn't show the little extra bulges on my rear or upper thigh. All other ... skirts that are smooth reveal more than I want. I love these because of the layers - they are very flattering. I usually get a compliment at least once a week. I also like a tighter fit on my waist - these have elastic AND a drawstring so if the elastic is not as fitting, you can tighten the string. I bought one in every color!!! I'm 5'4 and 135 and my legs are muscular -I bought the small - they fit great.

Great skirt but ... large
Per the other reviews on this skort, it ... just a tad large, so I returned my XS for an XXS, which fit perfectly. I'm a petite 5.0" and slim but with muscular legs. I'm ... got several compliments on it already. The shorts fit comfortably, but are a bit tight when you try to put a ... ball under the elastic at the bottom. I would also wear this during the summer for any outdoor activity, as they make my legs look great!

Great ... Skirt
This skort is great! It ... just a tad bit large. I wear it for ... receive numerous compliments on it (plus the matching tank). It's one of my most comfortable ... outfits. The legs are tight enough to hold ... balls while serving.

Compliments galore
Love this skirt. Everytime I wear it, I get TONS of compliments. Fits great in every area. Perfect skort for ... only problem is, by the time I ordered the one I have, you have ... out of them! You used to have a bright blue color--now you just have black and pink (in mediums only). Get more---I for one will order one in every color and will recommend this skort to all of my ... gal friends too. If you're selling out--this means it is a good product. So get more please! I'll be waiting...

Gorgeous color!Stylish and comfy!
Can't wait to wear this skirt for ... many other outings. It is very attractive, hangs well and is a reasonable price when compared against ... clothing. I think I'll have a "swagger" when I wear it!

LOVE my new ... skirt!
This is my new favorite skirt. The thing you can't really see from the pictures is that it lilts up a little on the sides, creating a round front. I get a lot of compliments on this skirt b/c it's different from most of the stuff everyone orders from the ... websites. When I read the reviews, I was worried about the mesh shorts b/c I thought they might be too thin and might get stretched out from ... balls, but no worries here. The mesh shorts fabric is just as thick as the skirt fabric. It looks more like a solid fabric with a tiny print on it rather than what I was imagining (the mesh lining in my son's swim trunks).

Great Exercise Skort!
I'm 5'9", 140 lbs., 40 yrs. old. I ordered a regular size small and it fits perfectly; the skort nicely covers my bum & upper thighs, yet short enough to wear for ... under shorts are fitted just enough to tuck a ... ball underneath. Sometimes Athleta's "small" is too tight on my hips & bum area (I seem to be between a 4 & 6 in their sizing). I love the whimsical ruffles of this skort that layer nicely to maintain a slim profile. The ruffles cross over each other on the side, creating a slight "slit" which is a stylish touch.

Cute!
This is a great skirt, flattering and light, perfect for ... Listen to the previous reviews and order down a size. I wear a M in ... skirts (Nike, Adidias, etc, but had to exchange this for a small. Otherwise, I am pleased with my purchase and looking forward to ... courts

Pretty Good Tennis Skirt
This is a flattering tennis skirt and I love the tall length for extra coverage. I like everything about it except the built in shorts. They are a mesh like material and a little too long -I have to pull them up a little so they don't show through the bottom of the skirt. It's also extremely hard to put a tennis ball in these -as well as take a tennis ball out. What happens is the mesh rolls into itself and gets into a tangled mess! It's frustrating to have to spend time to release the ball -- something you don't want to focus on while playing tennis! It would be easier to have a lycra built in short (take a look at the Lululemon skirts that have a built in short). A pretty good skirt but could use improvements with the shorts - then I would purchase more.

Perfect length
I'm an older woman who plays ... finding it difficult to find ... skirts that were long enough (seriously, only the young girls should be ... those short skirts). I'm 5' 10" and ordered the tall length. The skirt is the perfect length to cover my upper thighs. The ruffles create just the slightest volumn but don't make the hips look big. If you prefer a straight fit this may not be the skirt for you. I also purchased the Wavelength Skort which I also like. It gives the same amount of coverage but no ruffles.

Grace Short

The streamlined short designed for running or tennis with enough compression to hold tennis balls securely in the legs.

tennis wear - reviews

excellent Fit all around
The short fits well. material not too heavy, perfect for under a tennis dress or yoga. Best thing is that the legs are not "gripping" but comfortable.

It''s about time
I've tried all kinds of undershorts beneath my tennis skirts and dresses. These are the BEST! Most shorts dig in at the waist creating an ugly line, basically making one appear to be chubby when they aren't (I'm 5'6" and 125 lbs.) These do not. I will be planning on purchasing more of these for both my daughter and I. I just wish they were a little cheaper. That and the stitching along one of the legs came unsewn the very first time I wore them.

nice, smooth fit - no muffin legs or top!
The fabric is nice and thick, though the white may still be a bit too thin for modesty for some. Love the wide waistband - very comfortable. Will wear this mostly under my tennis skirts. Wish there were more colors....

Great shorts for under the bra cup dresses
I got these to wear under the bra cup dress I got - simultaneously purchased. They are comfy, and what I have found is that they are the perfect length, fit and compression to wear to run, do aerobics, zumba, you name it. At 5'8", ... small, sometimes the short shorts are too short, revealing more of my assets than I want everyone to see, but the length on this pair is perfect and it doesn't squash my thighs to the point where the inner thigh has the blob factor at the bottom. I will definitely be ordering more for my outdoor summer runs.

Would be perfect if just a tad longer and thicker in the white!
I love the comfort of these shorts. I ordered them to wear under some sport skirts that had no shorts built in. I wish they were one inch longer, b/c even on my short legs, they are short short and ride up a bit b/c they hit right at the middle of the fattest part of my inner thigh. If they were just one inch longer, I think they wouldn't ride up. I am 5'2", 105 and usually wear XS in Athleta bottoms, but these were pretty snug; great if you are looking for compression, so I sized up to a S and it was perfect.

Perfect for me
This short was purchased to go under the Printed Powermesh Cya Skirt and it works terrific in that capacity. I wouldn't wear these shorts w/o the skirt though as the legs ride up.

I don't quite have the body to wear these shorts alone. I wear them under workout dresses for support. They are extremely comfortable but during kickboxing I have to pull them down on the thighs. Fit was good. I ordered a small for my 5'6 130lbs hourglass figure.

Cool Shorts
I am pleased with this purchase. Although I think these are over priced, I like to run and play tennis in these shorts. They stay put pretty well and are comfortable. They are not spectacular but are good to own. I am hoping, based on the quality of the fabric, that they last for a long time... if they do, they will slowly be worth the price.

Great tennis shorts
I bought these shorts to wear under my tennis dresses and was very pleased. The waste band is wide and doesn't cause any tummy bulge. They stay in place without being too tight. The legs do ride up, but I think all lycra shorts do that if you're not stick thin. I have large thighs and they don't dig into them, but they do hold the tennis ball without slipping. I would recommend these shorts to other tennis players. I am 5'8", 155 pounds and typically a medium to large in shorts and skorts, or a 8-10, and the large fit well. I think the medium would've been too tight.

REALLY SHEER
These are great shorts to wear under a summer skirt. The waist does not dig in, very comfortable! The only problem is the white is VERY SEE THROUGH!! I will never wear these without something over top of them.

buy a size up
I'm 5'4, 110 lbs and bought an xs which is my size in all the pants and skirts. Should have gotten a small although might not wear these except for under a tennis skirt. Material is too thin and see through.

Love these
These socks are awesome, they are very comfortable and soft, not itchy, I cannot wear regular wool, but these I can. I have ran in them 3 times since I received them and loved them. I will be ordering more of these.

Love these socks!
I bought a pair in pink and one in the light blue. Loved them so much for running and hiking that I got more when Athleta had the cyber Monday sale. I wear a size 8-8 1/2 and a MED is perfect ~As always Athleta is the BEST!

Love Smartwool socks!
I love Smartwool! This brand of socks has been my lifesaver since moving to the PNW where it is wet and cold 6 months (or more!) of the year. I have Raynaud's syndrome - the blood vessels in my toes and fingers clamp down and close off when I get damp/cold. Not fun. ... wool socks or tights has been a lifesaver! I started running this summer and these socks have enabled me to continue running into the winter season. They are thin and lightweight, but still warm. I have had no problems with blisters or rubbing while ... them running and walking. I have many other Smartwool brand socks and tights and wear them almost every day during the fall/winter/spring.

These socks are awesome!
I wear these to go running, working a 9 hour nursing shift, and everyday. They are warm and comfortable.

Pleasantly Surprised
These socks are so comfortable, I love to just wear them around the house, but they are great for all my activities too. They are not too hot and they are soft, and cozy. I NEED to buy some more!

Wonderful Socks!
I simply love these socks! I bought size M and I wear a size 7 women's shoe and it fits great. I got the pink/red color and was pleasantly surprised when they arrived it is a bright and vibrant color. These socks are great for working out and wick very well. They are also nice and cushioned. I plan on getting another pair!

I wanted a good pair of athletic socks I could use for every sport, golf, tennis, and working out. They were definitely worth the extra money. I wear them golfing and I walk and carry. These socks make my feet feel they are in slippers. I Love these socks. Not hot, very cozy, great fabric. I am buying another pair! They fit perfectly. I am a size 10.5 and I ordered the large.

Best running socks ever.
These are the only socks I use for running. They keep my feet dry even on long runs 15 miles or more, they provide great cushioning, I wear them in warm weather and cold. Great breathe ability, no blisters.

My Perfect Sock
I have several pairs of these socks and think they are amazing!! They are perfect for winter runs, keep the feet warm but not over heated and sweaty. I also wear them on long training runs in the spring/summer/fall...again, with no over heated feet. I never get blisters with these socks...but I also have the perfect fitting shoes and on 10+ mile runs use body glide on my feet. I also love the different colors they come in, a fun alternative to plain, white socks.

These socks are great. I have long been a fan of Smartwool but have always stayed away from short socks due to my shoe's heel eating them up! I can not stand sock lumps under my feet. Thanks to the fat tab in the back and the design overall, these socks stay in place all day long. I wear a size 8.5 and I order a small so that they are super tight and they still stay in place.

great running sock
Love these socks, I have several pairs. I really like the lite cushion very comfortable and wash and wear well. I find myself reaching for them everytime I run. Also like that they come in S M-L sizing. I need a small and that is very hard to find in stores. so glad when I seen athleta carried them. Highly recommemed.
