Well. Just because a pair of capris work well for hiking, walking and yoga does not mean that they will work well for running... For whatever reason, the dratted pants kept feeling like they were slithering down my hips - and every block or so I felt obliged to grab em and hitch em up. Not exactly the best for my gait....Upon my return home, I went straight to a mirror to see how indecent they were, and they were about 3 inches below my natural waistline...definitely Low Riding....way lower than any low rise jeans I might wear....

What kind of capris are they? Are they snug, like tights, or looser? I have a pair of Adidas capri tights that I found at TJ Maxx that I love. But I have had other pants that I liked in the store and ended up hating running in. I have a pair of Adidas wind pants that just drive me nuts to run in. I think the waistband chafes. k

I bought some yoga pants that fitted great and looked like I could run in them. I got about 2 minutes down the road and had to keep pulling them up so I returned and changed them. They are proving handy at the moment for my cross training though! That's pretty funny though! Claire xxx

They are those hybrid style yoga capris - they are snug thru the hip and thigh and then they are like pants through the knee and calf...In any case, they're retired from running - I can't be hikin' up my pants every few minutes! LOL
