CRZ YOGA Butterluxe maternity tennis skirt with over-the-belly inner shorts and pockets
Product description
If you’re after a maternity tennis skirt that actually works when your body is changing, this CRZ YOGA Butterluxe option leans heavily into comfort first. It’s built for tennis or day-to-day wear during pregnancy and postpartum, with a flowy pleated outer layer and built-in inner shorts so you’re not constantly adjusting.
That “set and forget” feel is the real draw here: over-the-belly high rise, an ultra-stretchy Butterluxe fabric (with very gentle compression), and two side pockets in the inner shorts for your phone or keys. It’s not trying to look stiff or performance-only, it’s more of a practical maternity skort approach, with a soft, luxurious feel on the body.
If you want something that covers the gap between workouts and everyday errands, it’s worth considering. Still, do note that the skirt length is described as about 14.5 inches, so whether that suits your taste depends on your preferred coverage.
Key features
The standout design is the skort format: a flowy pleated tennis skirt over a built-in pair of inner shorts. That combination tends to be more comfortable than a skirt alone because it helps with coverage and movement.
The waistband is designed to sit super high waisted and “over the belly”, which is particularly useful as your pregnancy bump grows. On top of that, the Butterluxe fabric is described as extremely soft and ultra stretchy, with very gentle compression. In plain terms, it’s designed to feel comfortable and supportive without feeling restrictive.
Then there are the pockets: two side pockets for your phone or keys. For tennis, golf, or just commuting and running errands, having pockets in the inner layer is one less thing to worry about.
What you’ll notice in everyday wear
On paper, this is the kind of maternity skort you’d grab for days when you want to look put-together but don’t want tight layers. The flowy outer skirt should move nicely as you walk, while the built-in shorts keep things practical.
A simple micro-scenario: imagine heading to the park for a light session—ball retrieval, a short walk, then a coffee stop. The pockets mean you can carry essentials without a separate bag, and the over-the-belly high rise helps the waistband stay put rather than rolling down.
Because it’s pitched for tennis, golf, workouts, and daily wear, it also feels like it’s aimed at the “one outfit, many plans” side of maternity clothing.
Pros
- Very soft, ultra-stretchy Butterluxe fabric designed for luxurious comfort
- Very gentle compression can feel supportive without being too firm
- Over-the-belly super high waisted fit for pregnancy and postpartum wear
- Flow y pleated skirt with built-in shorts for practical coverage
- Two side pockets for phone or keys
What to watch before you buy
Two things are worth checking in your own preferences. First, the skirt length is given as about 14.5 inches, so it may not match everyone’s ideal level of coverage. Second, the “very gentle compression” sounds comfortable rather than body-hugging, but if you’re the type who prefers no compression at all, you may want to think about whether any level of shaping is still your style.
Also, while it’s described for tennis, golf and workouts, the details provided lean more towards comfort and everyday wear than specialist technical performance. If you’re trying to “max out” training gear for heavy sessions, you might find more dedicated activewear elsewhere.
Who it suits (and who should skip it)
It makes sense if you want maternity-friendly athletic clothing that can handle both movement and daily errands, with pockets included. You’ll likely like it if your priority is softness, stretch, and an over-the-belly fit, and you don’t want to sacrifice coverage thanks to the built-in inner shorts.
It may not suit you if you strongly prefer a waistband that doesn’t sit high over the belly, or if a specific skirt length (about 14.5 inches) isn’t your thing. Better avoided if you’re looking for a very performance-focused piece for intense training, because the emphasis here is comfort and practicality.
Is it worth it?
Buying verdict: It’s a solid pick for pregnancy and postpartum days where you want a comfortable, ultra-stretchy maternity skort that still looks like a tennis skirt. The over-the-belly high rise and Butterluxe feel should help with day-long wear, and the pockets are a genuine everyday win.
Buy it if you’ll use it for tennis, golf, workouts, and general outings, especially when you want your phone and keys within easy reach. Skip it if you don’t like over-the-belly, high-waist fits, or you know you’ll dislike the stated skirt length.
