Run For Your Life Tank Performance Review
I wore my new Royalty Run: For Your Life tank to spin yesterday morning. I really liked it. I didn't layer another bra under it but did put cups in. I thought the support was adequate for moderate cardio like spin. I really like the wide open back, it helped keep me cooler than I normally get in spin class. The material is lightweight and very breathable. I put it slightly less breathable and lightweight than silverescent circle mesh but it's a great material for hot weather/sweaty activities. The sheen of this material dresses it up a bit, too. I wore it with luxtreme shorts and didn't have any issues with the tank riding up. The wide straps are super comfortable and stayed in place on my shoulders. The looser fit of the tank meant that I didn't get nearly as many visible sweat marks as I usually do during spin. All in all I was very happy with the performance and look of this tank. I'd love to get another in a bolder color like Heathered Raspberry or Dewberry. They are sold out on line and selling fast in the stores so maybe we'll see another run of these.

I tried this on today and I really liked it, but couldn't justify the $64. Maybe if it ends up in 'we made too much'. I wouldn't mind a colour either. The store that I went to only had black and grey.
I tried this tank on today too. I definitely like the fit of the tank. Unfortunately, the horizontal seem of the bra was visible from the front. Or I would have bought it. Brought the weightless singlet home instead. Love magnum!!
I really wanted this tank to work for me too, it seems like such a great idea. I tried it on today as well and the straps slipped right down my shoulders, even when I sized down. I wish there would be some new push ur limits in the new colours.
The concept of this tank is great, love that there was not so much fabric like with the no limit tank. Unfortunatley, I also had issues with the straps slipping off my shoulder just walking about the house - didn't even make it to my workout. Sadly, it went back.
Wait, the weightless singlet comes in Magnum? What store was that at?
Interesting - I tried this top on this week and noticed the same thing with the straps slipping down. Maybe I needed to size down? (I'm a 6 across the board at lulu) my store only had gray and black, so when they get the royalty in maybe I will try a size down. I actually ended up leaving the store with a Turbo tank
I tried this on today but it was totally shapeless on my small-chested self. Didn't like it well enough to try the next size down.
I have this and had zero issues with the straps falling down in my tts.
Nice review, thanks!
