Anyone use these as maternity exercise pants? How are they for running?

I don't like these for running they are soft but not the fabrication is in my opinion not that supportive for high impact sports especially for maternity wear. Congratulations by the way!

I use them for yoga but i suppose they could be good for running too. They are super soft

Hi Patric, I no longer jog/run as I used to. I use the weights while walking with no problem. I cannot tell you for sure, but you probably could run with them, slowly increasing the weights and making sure to wear thick socks to protect the ankles. Or you could try speed-walking first. The weight designer does not recommend them except for static exercises, but most people do walk with ankle weights without problems. Take care, Carmen Sofia

I haven't worn them for running but with the foam tips they really stay put. You can also wear them over your ears for a more secure fit. That being said these are not specifically designed for exercising so I don't know how they handle sweat. They sound fantastic though so I'd say it's worth a try.

Yes, they work well for running. I've had the new S9 HD for 2 mths now and I run several times a week with no problems with reception or shorting from sweat. You can wear them on your hip (= very good reception (music and phone)with little to no covering or major obstruction)) or on your arm with an armband (best reception, music and phone). I've found they work VERY well for running.

No i think they will not be very comfortable while running. The other thing is that they are very tight on the knee top and create some discomfort. So what i will recommend is that try elastic one the reason i purchased these one was i thought they will be very good in support but turn out that they are good at supporting your knee but they have other problems as mentioned above. I hope this helps.

I have not ran any endurance races in them, but I do work as an EMT and wear them as my uniform pants. I have had a couple pairs for almost 2 years now and they are still going strong after being in mud, dirt, you name it and beat to crap, very durable! The Teflon coating wears off after a couple months but they still are pretty stain and fade resistant. Hope this helps a bit!

I wear them, so women can wear them too. They are nice and thin. Haven't had a problem with them moving or crawling in my shoe. Good luck.

I bought mine specifically for exercising. They work great for me. I walk, bike ride, Yoga, and use weights and a treadmill.

I have found that they slowly slip out if i am jogging. If I am just lifting they remained in place. I also make sure to wipe any sweat off after use to prevent issues.

I find them to be very comfortable without slipping when I walk/run. No blisters. My guess they would be fine for your movements but keep in mind I just use them for a walk or a run.

I have and it was fine. I prefer just wearing leggings under them, but jeans will fit. For the best comfort, go with leggings.

They run fairly true to size. I have three pair, size xlarge. When I bought them they fit really well. I've lost 20lbs or so since so I could get large now but with the drawstring waist I keep wearing why I've got.

I think they would be excellent for running. The silicone grippers do a great job of keeping them in place.

These are slimmer and more streamlined than the regulars. I was 220 9 months pregnant, 5'6 and fit the L/XL perfect. Postpartum at 190 and size 14, they still fit but got a little loose after a couple hours.

I find them to be reasonably snug without being too tight. For me they are comfortable. If you were to be more active than walking normally, they would slide out of position. Unfortunately probably one of those things you'll have to try to see if they work for you. Hope this helped a little.

I've never worn Lululemon... But the prana pants are nice. Light fabric, with stretch. No elastic in the waistband, and that is a plus for my comfort level. No fly. Two pockets.I have two pair. Good for exercise, yoga, casual wear. It seems like these are 'boot cut,' slightly flared legs.Comfortable. Pretty $$, but I imagine the Lululemon are in the same range

I wouldnt recommend them for running. The protective earshell, although very comfortable, would not do well against perspiration. Better keep them indoors. The sound quality is amazing though -especially considering the price- and I'd recommend them for listening to music at home.
