FitMama Friday: Motion Skort by Brooks

By

FitMama Friday: Motion Skort by Brooks 1I love running skirts. They’re flattering, feminine, and fashionable. Not to mention that they’re also fun AND functional. In my opinion, they’re more comfortable than shorts (which often bunch up or chafe the inner thighs – I have to mention one exception here: my Roga shorts by Oiselle), more modest than spandex, and more becoming than sweatpants.

I recently tried the Motion Skort by Brooks. The website states that its a “versatile, smart skort to help you look and feel great no matter where your busy day takes you.” And it IS all of those things and more. The material is light, breathable, and stretchable. The look is incredibly cute…so cute, in fact, that you could easily run to a coffee shop or stop in at the grocery store or go to a playdate afterwards without looking frumpy.

Oh and this skirt is one of MANY cool items sold by Brooks. You should check out their site. While you’re there, you might want to apply to become a “lab rat” for Brooks’ Biomechanics Lab Testing Program and/or Wear Testing Program. If you are selected, you get to test running shoes (and sometimes keep them!). Who doesn’t love the prospect of free shoes?

  56. I love this skirt, but what makes it different is the pockets…..I LOVE THE POCKETS…no purse needed. Hands free to laugh, play, work, shop, or just look chic.

    I really need this skirt as a basic in my wardrobe…every woman does!

    Thanks for the contest.

  57. I have 3 kids and run around from 5.45am until 10.30 pm when I come home from working my cleaning business. I could wear this all day. I love it. Thanks for the chance.

  58. So cute! I am a mama of two who needs this skirt for my next marathon! It makes a huge difference in comfort! I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

  59. Very cute,I love to wear something like this chasing around the park,or zoo after all the wee ones,would feel good about riding the bike with this on as well.count me in,good luck to all. :)

  71. I LOVE my skorts – I use a biking skort (specially padded), and have ones for working out. I feel much less exposed and able to go between functions (the gym, store, picking-up/droping-off). Skorts are much more flattering to a range of body types than shorts.

  85. I had no idea these even existed, fabulous to cover my thighs, exposing them would be a crime against humanity.

  87. That is actually really cute! : ) I haven’t been to your site in awhile because I have been so busy the past few weeks at work! : )

  101. Ok, so my toddler is 15 months old and I still have 10 pounds to lose. For some reason I’m just not motivated. While I want to fit into my pre-preg jeans, I just don’t take the time to run like I used to. But man, with this cutie-pie, I know that would seal the deal. In fact, I should probably run to Target and pick up some cute workout gear. Maybe that’s the motivator I need! I’d love to win this cute skirt!

  102. These would make me run again – it has been 8 years since I ran! I had 4 kiddos and no time til now to exercise! :)

  125. i woul dlove to dress up for my hubby on valentines day. this would be perfect.

  160. This would be great for dropping of the kids at school, going to the gym and then running errands.

  166. What a wonderful exercise clothing option! It looks and sounds very comfortable. Please enter me in your giveaway contest. Thanks,Cindi
