Swift™ & Luxtreme™ Fabric Integration: The outer pleated shell is typically crafted from lululemon's signature Swift™ fabric [lulufanatics.com]. This weave is ultra-lightweight, boasts four-way stretch, and dries incredibly fast [lulufanatics.com].
Built-In Compression Liners (Shorties): The underside features a hidden compression short liner knitted from slippery, supportive Luxtreme™ fabric [lulufanatics.com]. These liners are engineered with drop-in mesh side pockets specifically positioned to slide tennis balls upward under the hem, or to securely store a smartphone and keys.
Flattening Waistband Matrix: The upper hip region is tailored with a wide, flat, and supportive compression band [beyondyoga.com]. It smoothes out the lower stomach area entirely, allowing the dramatic box pleats to drop elegantly from mid-hip down. This ensures the skirt adds zero bulk or volume to your midsection.
Back Mesh Stow Pocket: The prominent horizontal back yoke features a concealed, low-profile pocket space [shoppelotonia.org]. This layout is designed to sit flat against the lower spine, ensuring credit cards or keys do not bounce while running.
