What's Working: Sugoi Moxie Review and Super Giveaway!

I've been excited to write this post now for a few weeks. It all started about 2 months ago, when I first bought my (now) favorite running shorts, the Moxie shorts (above). They quickly became a staple in my weekly running wardrobe. I loved em so much, I decided to see if I could review Sugoi's Moxie skirt. I already loved the shorts, and I'm a huge running skirt fan, so figured this new combo would be a home run.

Well, here's the Moxie Running skirt on body:

 Here, lemme give you a more close up view of the skirt itself:

Isn't it too cool for school?! I knew I'd like it as soon as I slipped it on. And about the Sugoi brand itself, I've always been a big fan. They are well known in the cycling and running world, and I've seen their apparel emerging in the triathlon world. They are known to make great quality sport clothing.

And now my two cents on the skirt:

I loved the flattering waistband, the material, and the overall fit of the skirt. The material is light and stretchy and just feels like it's doing it's job of wicking away sweat while keeping me dry. I wear a medium in Sugoi and it fit true to my ~29 waist size. It has a boxer style brief liner underneath, and it's a snug fit, but not too tight. It has a back zippered pocket, which was perfect to stash my key.
I've run in it three times on ~6 mile stints, and it did it's job well of letting me move, keeping me dry and letting me feel cute;-)  Also, the 2" side seam notches kept the skirt moving perfectly. I then kept it on to pick up the kids, and get in a quick grocery run...and I felt cute;-).

Now, a few differences between the Moxie skirt and short:

1. The short has a mesh liner with gusset that I absolutely love. Here's a pic, I know it looks weird in the pic, but just showin' a point:

 2. The running skirt covers a bit more of my legs than the short. 

So, my takeaway message for the Moxie short and skirt is... I LOVE them both! But If I had to choose just one, I would ultimately take the short because of the mesh liner brief vs. the boxer style brief liner of the skirt. But that's just me. And this post ain't just about me...it's about YOU too!
