Customer Reviews Nike Pro Core II Compression Capri

I ordered these on Friday and received them Monday in the middle of the "Superstorm". Yay for UPS and Zappos.com VIP treatment! Immediately tried them on and was admiring my bum in the mirror (looked and fit great! I ordered a medium and I'm 5'7"/ 145 lbs) when I noticed a slit/tear on the inside of one of the knees! What a bummer, the waist was not restrictive or muffin-top-causing, they ended just below my knees, which was exactly what I was looking for in a shorter capri...I am definitely returning these and getting another pair. Can't wait for an undamaged pair to be delivered!

I own the Nike Pro Core II Compression Capri in the black and carbon heather. I love them. They are perfect for the gym. If you are going for a long run, they tend to slip down a little, but for weight training they are perfect. They are very comfortable, with smartly placed seams that do not rub. I would highly recommend these for weight training, yoga, spinning, and shorter distance runs.

I bought these to run in and so far this Fall they have been comfortable and keep me warm enough. I bought the black ones and have not had any issues with them being sheer. They are very slimming. My only complaint is that they tend to slip down and rest on my hips when I'm running, instead of a bit higher like I prefer. But it isn't a big deal and these are definitely keepers!

Love the way these look! Hold up well in the wash as well. My only complaint is that they don't stay up incredibly well while working out. Very annoying to run in but didnt a cycling class in them and they did well.

I'm 5'6" and about 145 lbs. and I bought a large. I am constantly pulling them up because they slide down, the waist band is very loose and not as tight as I would like it to be. They are also a bit of a low-rise waist. I'll be ordering a medium next time.

These are comfy, relatively low cut and not overly tight around the waist, they somehow have hit a magical balance that doesn't cut in and create a muffin top and a not being loose, however that said, I wonder if they will sink while running. The fabric is thin and they should be really cool. They are thin enough that these do not hide imperfections AT ALL. Nice color too.

I love these pants since they're comfortable and very easy to move in. My only gripe is that they are VERY sheer. I do a lot of workouts involving squats and people can pretty much see everything. Otherwise I'm happy with these pants and just have to not care if people can see through them.

I absolutely love the color and the feel of the fabric, however, I wore them to a Zumba class and the waistband does not keep these bad boys up. The legs fit fine but the waist felt huge. I do not have an abnormally small waist. They are perfect for my spin or yoga classes, but I would not recommend them for dance based aerobics. I had to stop and pull up my pants several times.

Great color, but should have taken the reviews more seriously. These slip down really bad. They are definitely comfortable, but it is almost as if they stretched out after a wear or two. Unfortunately, I had to exercise in them to learn this...so I think I'm stuck with them.

Do not buy these capris if you plan on running/jogging in them! I loved these capris at first, but when I tried to run on the treadmill they wouldn't stay up at all. I constantly had to pull them up. They fit skin tight, so I wouldn't want to order them any smaller or it would probably be uncomfortable. I'm 5'9 and 145 pounds. medium fit perfect.

These weren't worth the price. They're mediocre - it's just that they're Nike. If I had the option of buying these after I went for a run in them, I would not have bought them. The waist/hip slides down as you run and you have to tug them back up until you're sweaty enough for them to stay put. Grrrr... Other than that, they're nice, average workout pants.

Love the style and fit. However - shows major sweat marks. I sweat a lot and by the time I am done running in these, it looks like I've wet myself. I can only wear these while training clients - not exercising in for myself. I also got the black ones, and do not have that problem with those.

I love the way they compress, however, they're too sheer to wear alone, I'd recommend a pair of shorts. Also, I bought a large (I'm a size 12) and I have to keep pulling them up in the back. Just a weird fit for me.

Well, definitely what I was expecting. The fabric is too thin and they don't compress at all. I thought they were going to be good for winter. They are not. However, if you don't like showing your legs, they are a good choice for summer.

As others have said, it is a bit see through, so I will be returning these.

The material on these pants is very thin, I didn't care for it. Almost see through, even in black. I like the length if they improved the material. I'm petite 5'3", 105lbs - ordered XS.

Ordered these in black two days ago and just received them. Shipping was super fast and free, loved that. However, I opened up the package and they are blue with a pink waistband. They are also a bit too snug (I am about 5'5" and 135lb and ordered a small). Returning these and hopefully getting the color I originally ordered, but in a medium. I'm hoping the waistband won't be too big in a medium, I just need the legs to be a tiny bit looser. I'm disappointed that I will have to wait until I get my money back to order the right ones again. I didn't seem to find much about an exchange option. These pants are great if you can manage to find the right size.

This product is WAYYYY too sheer! There is no way I can wear this alone, either outside or at the gym. It feels good when wearing it, but it's like a semi-opaque nylon. If I can already see my unmentionables through it, then I know other people will be able to. It's a shame, b/c the fit feels really good. I'll probably save it for a capri to wear under cycling shorts or an outer winter layer.

These are not what I expect from Nike capris. I think they changed their material over the past few years. These are definitely too sheer to wear alone. The tag showed right through the backside. Back they will go. Thank goodness for Zappos' wonderful return policy!

Would be great for additional coverage underneath shorts. Black pair are slightly see through in the rear. I returned them due to very little compression and support...which was why I purchased these shorts to begin with. Would be great workout pants in general, but are not true compression.

If you plan on doing a hard workout and sweating these are not a good choice. They are not dry-fit and the sweat seeps through. I'm an average sweater and after 20 minutes on the elliptical these looked like I wet my pants! Great design and fit but horrible material.

These pants fall down constantly when I run in them! I bought them based off the positive reviews, but I find that when I run in these, I have to yank the waistband up every 100 yards. Highly annoying! I'm bummed I bought two of these!

Fabric is too flimsy and thin for a workout tight. "Compression" it ain't. Nike usually does better - I'm disappointed.

I have a very mixed opinion on these capris. I really like the lightweight fabric (which I did not find to be sheer at all in black) and the flattering fit. However, I did have the same problem as several other reviewers: the waistband does tend to slip down during a workout, leading to a lot of readjusting and pulling up. Also, I didn't really feel that these have a lot of compression. I'll keep the pair I have for less strenuous workouts, but I wouldn't buy another pair. I'm 5'5, size 14, and the XL seems to be a good fit except for the waistband issues.
