Triumph Women's Maternity Gilet

Product Information

Runners are particular when it comes to their shoes and gear when they’re not running for two. That makes finding clothing that fits a growing bump, accommodates swollen feet, and doesn’t press too hard on an already overtaxed bladder, especially trying. It’s been roughly eight months since I first dug into the maternity activewear line, and I’m excited to report that running companies have started to follow suit. Another tester who wore these tights at 35 weeks said they fit perfectly over her third-trimester bump. She was blown away by the quality; her 2-year-old commented on the softness of the fabric. A nursing sports bra is often a topic of discussion for mamas-to-be. Do women actually nurse on the run? Unlikely, but it makes pre- and post-run feeds a little easier. Plus, for moms running long or hitting the trails, it makes mid-workout breastfeeding or pumping a more comfortable possibility.

The closure system is adjustable for a more personalized fit (although the style is still over-the-head). I commend companies for making maternity activewear, like A Pea in the Pod and Gap, even if it’s expensive and not running-specific, because it does offer moms-to-be a chance to stay active when they’re expecting. Toward the end of 2019, Cadenshae, a maternity activewear company, signed Alysia Montano after she spoke out against her former sponsor, Nike, for its treatment toward its mother runners. A must-have layering piece, our Navy 3 in 1 Maternity Gilet will keep you and your little one cosy through every stage. Pair it with a sweater or wear it as an extra layer to adapt your regular winter coat for pregnancy & babywearing. It’s designed for bump, for baby and forever. Featuring a super-flattering diagonal quilted design & discrete stretch panels at the sides, this sporty style is designed to grow with you through every stage of pregnancy. A true hero piece for changeable weather, this coat is made to last. You’ll love it through multiple pregnancies & long after your little ones have outgrown the carrier!

While not (yet) perfect, Reebok and running giant Nike have released maternity gear lines, giving expecting runners options from their trusted brands. This sporty maternity gilet is designed to fit and flatter your changing curves. Featuring concealed zip-away stretch panels to the sides, the style grows with your bump throughout your nine months. For one tester who tried these tights at 26 weeks, the over-the-belly panel chafed and slipped down, something she notes could be because her bump wasn’t that big. She does point out that rolling the panel under her bump was much more comfortable. Delivery is on a selected date, you can choose a delivery day of your choice, up to 10 days in advance (Excluding next day delivery. Postcode restrictions apply)

After baby is born, the kangaroo panel zips on at the front to fit easily over your front carrier or sling. Complete with a section for baby’s feet, the pouch can be worn open or zipped up to protect your little one from April showers. Plus, maternity clothing—active or otherwise—is expensive. And because a woman is only wearing it for a short period of time, it can be hard to justify the cost. But here’s where things get REALLY clever... The coat comes in two pieces – a shower-resistant outer coat in a premium wool blend & an inner fleece gilet with a cosy velour lining. The two pieces zip together or can be worn separately – perfect for changeable weather. And the best bit… the babywearing panel is fully reversible, so you can wear it with both pieces, together or separately.A versatile masterpiece, this coat is made to last. You’ll love it through multiple pregnancies & long after your little ones have outgrown the carrier!

Just like our best-selling 3 in 1 styles, it comes with a zip-on panel for babywearing. Designed to zip up over your baby carrier or sling, then zip off again afterwards. The tights’ product description calls out indoor cycling and prenatal yoga—both no-impact activities. And running is very much not no-impact. Our tester applauds the bra’s quality when it comes to washing and odor control—much like Nike’s non-maternity gear. Invest when it makes sense: If you know you want to run throughout your pregnancy, finding comfortable and supportive clothing could be a worthwhile investment. As you get bigger, it can be harder and harder to get out the door. Clothing that fits well and feels good will make the workout more enjoyable. You may use your clothing again and if not, you can consign or donate. Just like our best-selling 3 in 1 styles, it comes with a detachable panel for babywearing. Designed to zip up over your baby carrier or sling, then zip off again when you’re done.Both testers said the tights fit true to size and went with their normal pre-pregnancy sizes (a direct that most maternity brands give). I’ll probably continue to wear these for running [folded down] even when I’m not pregnant,” she wrote. Find support: It’s no surprise that bumps come in all sizes. Some women don’t feel they need extra support from under-the-belly tights or belly bands, but others are more comfortable with it. There are a host of belly bands out there—I loved Upsie Belly from Belly Bandit.
