Bought the shorts to race in. They were clearly returned and one of the sinches at the front was completely missing. Customer service did not seem to care that both items (from the same order) were clearly returned and damaged.

These last me all of about 15 wears or ~six months before the inseam started to rip. I also had the drawstring break on my second wear. For the price point it’s not worth the money. I’ve bought aeroswift tights in the past and they used to be a lot more durable and last me years.

These feel great and are comfortable but i do not like the brief inside

Very disappointed with these half tights. Drawstring broke on one side after just a few wears. Epic design fail by Nike. Poorly constructed half tight. Many other buyers have had similar complaints.

Comfortable and fit true to size. They're sleek and look good (I love the texture of the material) while working out/running. The only negative is Swoosh logos are very delicate and can peel off quickly. For a pair of tights that are £££, that's just unacceptable. The logos are likely to crack and peel off, within 3 washes. Just embroider them Nike!

I own 2 pairs of these and while the overall fit is good (not great, maybe better if I went up a size), and they do look cool. That's about where the good ends. The Nike logo peels the first wash even on delicate and with no heat, The right drawstring broke during the first use in both pairs, and the inside seam has begun to fray after only 2 uses. Absolutely ridiculous for this brand or at this price point.

Shorts are incredible except the drawstring had broken again on my second pair after just under a year of light use 1x per week. The string doesn't go all the way around so if you pull it tight it can just remove it from one side and there is now way to reattach it.

Let me just say, I love these shorts, but read on to the end. They go on pretty tight (I'd almost say they run small, but they're just snug), but they feel great on the run. Very supportive, very smooth, and comfortable. Price is not quite low enough, but I got them at a discount, which made the cost more palatable (I've never had shorts like this, and as a bigger runner, I needed the incentive). Pocket in back is big enough to fit my iPhone 13 mini (but probably not one of the more current phones that are much bigger), which was a very pleasant surprise for listening to music on the run. I do have the issue with the logo cracking, but I don't care. If this was it, five stars. But this is not it. As others have said, the drawstring is a complete and utter fail. Mine broke within the first month, and I was being careful, having read the reviews. Here was the circumstance: I had the shorts on and tied, and needed to clip a flashing light to my waistband for a night run. The little tug to get the clip on is what broke the inner end of the drawstring free from its anchor near the back of the shorts. The source of the problem: this is not one drawstring, but two half-drawstrings, each anchored on one side of the rear pocket. How do we know this is a terrible, and avoidable design? 1) Because so many people are reporting the breakage problem. 2) In the trail shorts, which are a very similar design, there's a *continuous* drawstring that runs over the rear pocket, just like this one could. The trail shorts drawstring is anchored at the rear to prevent drawing it all the way through the shorts, but because the drawstring is one piece, you shouldn't snap it. And, there's no anchor from which it can break free, rendering it useless. Maybe a designer from Nike can read this and make a design change. So, buy with caution. I'll be over here trying to mend my broken drawstring.

A bit hard to get them on even though the size is right, but once you get them on- it stretches really well and feels light once you start running

Would have given 5 stars, but unfortunately, I have experienced issues with the drawstring. Overall, a great product. I loved my first pair so much that I ordered a 2nd. Unfortunately, the 2nd pair I ordered arrived with one of the drawstring ties missing. I thought it was just stuck somewhere in the lining/material, but I went relatively deep into the hole that the drawstring should be coming out of, and I couldn't find it. Couldn't even pull the drawstring out on the other side to see if I could re-work the drawstring in. Anyway, they haven't fallen down while I've been out for a run, yet. Hopefully that doesn't happen!

Good pants but the string is horrible quality. I wouldn’t recommend unless they fix the string issue.

I LOVED these tights for long runs. They were extremely comfortable. However, the seam on the inside leg tore open DURING MY MARATHON. I started chafing like crazy and had to hit a first aid tent for some help so that I could finish comfortably. I'm on the fence about buying another pair, like I said, I loved them, but I can't have that happen again.

Awful worn about 6 times and both seams inside legs have started coming away. Super comfortable and practical but not durable at all
Eben821364337
These are great in all other respects- fast, comfortable, ample storage. However, as other reviewers have noted, they are not very durable. One of the two drawstrings (they are disconnected) broke in the wash after <3 months of occasional use, probably 7 runs total. They are a great product but the design of the drawstring is poor and massively affects their durability.

The cord has broken off after under 3months of intermittent use. It's not even connected the whole way around.
