As normal, the hardest part was picking out my top choice in designs. I narrowed it down to the Black & White Stripe Capris, the Pixel Capris or the Blue Floral Pant (finally deciding on the Black & White Capris because I thought those would go with the most outfits and the capri length would probably be the most forgiving with my short legs).
I may not lay out a #FlatCarlee for every workout, but when your gear is this cute, you've got to, right?! Top: lululemon, Socks: PRO Compression, Sports Bra: Handful, Capris: Belcorva, Watch: Garmin |

Not only is the quality amazing (they are super stretchy and soft, yet not too delicate feeling like I could rip the fabric while being active in them), but... POCKETS! The company was started by a husband and wife team {Robby and Lindsey} and the wife knew we need somewhere to stash all of our goodies. When Lindsey was training for her first full marathon she noticed most activewear lacked pockets or places to store fuel, phone, or car keys when participating in a race - coming up with the idea for the brand! I love that when the pockets aren't in use, they're barely noticeable.
My phone fit easily in the pocket and didn't move while I was running |
The pockets may seem small, but they are mighty ;) |
I've been able to go for multiple runs in the capris (from short, recovery runs to long runs including speed work), as well as a yoga session and a normal "day around town" {I realize I've been wearing them often, but I wanted to get in a few different activities so I could report fully}. I found the back zip pocket is perfect for keys, while the leg pockets are great for my phone, fuel and even #CarleesTreasures! The first time I ran with my phone in one of the pockets I checked every few minutes to make sure it wasn't working its way out, but there was zero movement (the only slight issue I had was my camera lens fogged up due to my body heating up/ sweating - but a quick wipe with my sleeve fixed that).
Made sure to get in an assortment of activities (running, yoga, biking, walking the pup, etc) to fully test out these capris |
And I just HAD to share this series of pictures because they were too cute not to (even if my downward dog form isn't the best) |
And I feel like I need mention their logo. It's the sun rising over the mountains. On March 30, 2016, Lindsey lost her little brother to suicide. The company's logo depicts the saying, "It's always the darkest before the dawn". They hope their logo will be a sign of hope for those people who are in a dark place. Just as the sun rises, good things will come again.

I love these active pant and the large side pocket on them!!! I really am obsessed about the pocket for my phone because I don't loke wearing my arm band. The best color for me is the black with mesh! Thanks for the giveaway!
I loved the striped pair. They are fun.

I would probably pick the striped pair! I love that there is a pocket for your phone or even for gels/gu if you're running a longer race.
All the yays for pockets! I love so many of the styles. I'd probably pick the black with stripes capri
Black and white stripes! You can wear any color top with them.
My favorites are black and blue paint and blue floral.
I liked the navy mesh capris, or the purple stripe (💜💜💜).
You had me at the pocket.
I love the striped pair you are wearing, but I have to say, I love the Pixel pattern!

I would probably choose the black mesh - black goes with everything!

Stripes!!
I totally love the stripe look too, it is so fun and playful, I think I'd go with the dark purple and white stripe over the black and white, since it is a subtle touch of color!
I have yet to find a pair of tights or capris for running that properly fit me. They always start sagging in the crouch area and I am constantly pulling them up throughout my runs. It's caused me to be afraid to try anymore brands. Did these stay put for you?
I would pick the black and white stripes too. I'm a sucker!
Carlee,
You had me at pockets :)
I love so many of them! Black and white stripe are a great classic, but I love me some color so the dark purple and white stripes are awesome too! xoxo

I love my Black Mesh ones! I would go with the Black with stripe (less stripey than yours which I love on you!) or Navy. I'm boring. Maybe maybe Purple Camo #outofmycomfortzone!
I'd choose pixel! I love the colors. Then probably the dark purple/white striped.

I would probably choose the pixel! I'm a firm believer that workout clothes should be as bright and obnoxious as possible... probably why I own a pair of donut printed leggings!
The pixel pattern is my favorite! So fun and bright!

Oh gosh!! How do you choose?! I mean, I've been stalking shorts lately and those look like a GREAT length for me, but the blue floral is STUNNING!
I like the blue floral print best.

The pocket is awesome! I would choose stripes...that is my favorite color :)
I love a good work-out capri! And these look AWESOME! I love stripes! AND I LOOOOVE POCKETS! (for some reason, women always get the short end of the stick when it comes to pockets (or the shallow end--can't even put a chapstick in some of the pockets we get). These look amazing!
Love the stripes, but I would have to go with the black and gray crisscross!
Pocket Capri - Navy Mesh would be my choice.
Sadie B.
I would love to try these! So excited for the pockets! My first choice would probably be black, but I would love to try a print like the purple camp of pixel. Hard to choose just one!
I'm into the Pocket Capri - Dark Purple and White Stripe.
