Just Right - These are comfortably snug, but you don't look like you're poured into them (if you get the right size). I generally wear a size 4 and the small fits well. Very comfortable and easy to move in.

Love these! The compression fabric works great to keep everything from jiggling too much when I workout - I use them for running as well as cardio in the gym and strength training. As for sizing, I wear a size 8 in pants but easily fit into their size small, which is 4 - 6...nice for my ego!

These are the most flattering workout pants I own and I was shocked that they were Nike! Usually I just associate Nike with my running shorts, but these capris are the perfect pant for pilates and yoga, as I've come to find out. I'm sure they'd work for running, too, but I have shorts for that. ;) They ride low enough to be comfortable, but not so low that you show whale tail, they're tailored enough to be fitted, without being so tight that parts come bulging out. The fabric is also thick enough to avoid see-through situations during lunging exercises. Overall, a great workout pant and I'll be buying another pair.

Very comfortable, cute and flattering. Great for all workouts, running, kickboxing and weights. They do run a bit big, good for the ego, so I had to order the small.

These are great workout capris! They are very comfortable and I love the dri-fit... the material never sticks to you no matter how tough the workout! These capris are easy to take care of... gentle wash and then I usually air dry. I typically wear a size 4 and the small fits perfectly.

I have worn Nike running capris for years. Unable to purchase them at the Nike store in New York City, I was able to locate a similar pair at Zappos. I ordered 1 pair to see if they compared to the original ones purchased at Nike. I am happy to say that I loved the Be Bold Dri-Fit. I purchased 2 additional pairs. I did find them to run a little on the large size...order one size down.

These pants are so flattering, and very comfortable! I run between 10-20 miles a week, and these are definitely going to be my favorite pants to run in.

Great workout pants. I use them for kickboxing, weight training and yoga. Nice and lightweight. I'm 5'4" and 130 lbs, and the small fit fine.

I like these capris and find them comfortable and flattering enough for wear to the gym. Surprisingly for a Nike garment, I think they run generously, since I bought both a large and a medium to compare sizes and even though I am a large size 12, the medium fit fine so the L went back.

These capris are exactly as described. The Dri-Fit poly fabric is perfect for yoga, walking and an active lifestyle. I would prefer the cropped capri length, but these capris are cropped just below the knees (not the most flattering cut on anyone).

What a great shoe! I was married to Asics for over 10 years and was reluctant to try a new brand. I eventually got bored with Asics' lack of innovation and creativity and decided to give K-Swiss a try. As an avid runner multisport athlete, I was amazed at how much I liked the K-Ona! Very comfortable, lightweight, stable, and fantastic ventilation. Huge improvements over the Asics' DS Trainer in my opinion. Great for triathlons and longer distance running. I couldn't be more pleased with this shoe. Enjoy!

I purchased these shoes for triathlon racing. They fit great. They are super light and very ventilated. So far I've done one distance and one sprint Tri (with no socks for either) since the purchase and they are the best shoes I owned in a long time and no scratch that, ever! I'm a convert from the Mizuno waves which are heavier but with more support if that's what you're looking for in a shoe. K-Swiss Rocks! I will buy again and Zappos was super fast to ship and super happy with the service. Zappos is my friend.

I love this shoe. It's the only road running shoe I've worn for the last two years. Light enough to race in, but supportive enough to do long training runs in. They sit lower and don't have that bulky heavy feeling that a lot of shoes have. I can really feel the road underneath me while still feeling like I have enough cushioning. The K-Ona breathes well, has great cooling, and the drain holes on the bottom are terrific for heavy sweaters. The K-Swiss running shoes do seem to run big. I typically wear a 9-9.5 in running shoes and I wear an 8.5 in the K-Onas.
