Description
Description
GRL PWR has always been a special theme for us. When FOHER Co was founded in 2014, we were humbled to no end by the incredibly strong Community that was forming around our brand. We introduced our ever popular GRL PWR tank at Noosa Triathlon many years ago when GRL PWR was just a hashtag, and now the theme is a central discussion point and a very real thing. We will never stop advocating for equality for women in sport. Our GRL PWR Run Kit was launched in time to celebrate International Women's Day 2021. Let's continue to lift women up and support them.
Introducing our brand spanking new GRL PWR Run Hipster with the inclusion of the super awesome back zip pocket. The GRL PWR Hipster is the perfect run training buddy and a training essential. For the Hipster, we set out to create a core run product that ties into your running and triathlon training: an understated yet technical workhorse ready for the rigours of everyday training. The key is how it functions while running for differing strides and for a long period of time. With a power fabric banded leg, you'll get comfort and a no ride up. These hipsters are our "perfect for summer" design which is sure to make you run faster! Waistband can be folded down or left up over the hips for ladies who like a little more support. Get in before they run out!
If you are on the cusp, we recommend you size up.
Kerstin is wearing a L, Kylie is wearing a M and Carly is wearing an XS.

HOW TO TAKE YOUR MEASUREMENTS
Grab your tape measure, make sure it is held flat, not twisted and always make sure that it is held firmly, not cutting in or squashing the area you are measuring. Please take the measurements below and compare them to the size chart to find the size that is right for you.
Taking your measurements whilst naked will give you your exact measurements, but if you intend wearing a garment (like a sports bra under your trikit), then take your measurements with those garments on.
CHEST/BUST – Place tape measure around the fullest and widest part of your bust (usually the part with the nipples!) Be careful not to let the tape measure slip down at the back, or squash you.
WAIST – Place tape measure between the bottom of your ribs and the top of your hip bones (the easiest way to find your waist is to stand in front of front of a mirror and suck your tummy in hard - you should see it!). It's also usually the narrowest part of your natural waistline.
HIP – Place the measuring tape around the fullest, widest part, usually over your bottom or at the top of your thighs between your hips and thighs.
HEIGHT – In bare feet, stand against a wall and mark the point perpendicular to the top of your head. Measure up to this point from the floor.
These measurements do not include ease, which is the amount of extra space allowed in a garment for comfort and movement. The amount of ease added can greatly differ depending on the fit of the garment.

These are the perfect anti-chafing solution and I was really impressed with them on a long run. They fitted well and did not ride up my thighs. My only negative feedback is how fiddly the waist pocket is for inserting a phone. Sliding the phone in and out of the pocket is frustrating compared to using a waist belt so I will continue to use a belt on top of the shorts. Making the opening wider/zip longer would address this issue I think. I see that there is a new version with a hip pocket but I have been using waist pockets for years and much prefer them.
FCFOHER Co15 seconds agoThankyou so much for your great review Johanna! We're stoked to hear our GRL PWR Run Hipster delivered on the anti-chafing front and stayed perfectly in place during your long run - that's exactly what we designed them for! Your feedback about the waist pocket accessibility is super helpful and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. We understand the importance of easy phone access, and we'll certainly share your suggestion about the pocket opening with our design team as we work on future updates. Rest assured we're always looking to improve our gear based on feedback from our running community. x The FOHER Team
- AWAmber W.Verified BuyerReviewingWomen's GRL PWR Run HipsterWhat size did you buy? SRated 3 out of 5 stars2 months agoLook good but ride up
These shorts look and feel great. Unfortunately I’ve found them to ride up.
FCFOHER Co2 months agoHi Amber, thanks for your review. We're pleased to hear you like the look and feel of our shorts, however we're disappointed to hear they've been riding up for you. Our shorts are designed with a compressive yet flexible fit to reduce the chance of riding up, so this is unusual feedback. It's possible the fit may not be quite right for you, as they are different from the GRL PWR Game Changers you have. We'd be happy to offer you a free personalised fit service where we can review your measurements and recommend the best size for you. Our goal is to ensure you have the perfect shorts for your needs. Please feel free to email us at info@foher.co so we can assist further. The FOHER Team

They are buttery, yet firm. They stay in place during strength training and on a run. Now I just need to lose a kg or two. I love them! Shipping was fast too.
