Yo, what’s up, folks! It’s your boy back again with another wild story from my life. Today, it’s all about how I ended up rocking some Skims, just like Kyrie Irving. Yeah, you heard that right – Skims aren’t just for the ladies anymore.

It all started when I was scrolling through Instagram and saw a post about Kyrie debuting some new Skims gear. I thought, “Damn, if he can pull it off, why can’t I?” So, I decided to give it a shot. I’m all about trying new things and pushing boundaries, you know?
Getting My Hands on Skims
First things first, I needed to get my hands on some Skims. I hopped on their website and started browsing. Honestly, I was a bit overwhelmed at first. There are so many options! But I kept my eyes on the prize and focused on the stuff Kyrie was wearing.
I ended up copping a few pieces – a pair of their sculpting shorts and one of their long-sleeve tops. I figured these would be the easiest to incorporate into my everyday style. Paid for them and waited. Nothing too crazy, just standard shipping.
The First Try-On
A few days later, the package arrived. I ripped that box open like a kid on Christmas morning. The material felt surprisingly good – soft and stretchy. I tried on the shorts first. Man, those things are snug! They really hold you in. I felt like a sausage, but in a good way, if that makes sense.
Next up, the long-sleeve top. This one was more my vibe. It fit like a glove and was actually pretty comfortable. I could see myself wearing this regularly, even if just lounging around the house.

Taking Skims to the Streets
Now for the real test – wearing this stuff out in public. I decided to start small. I wore the Skims shorts under my regular shorts to the gym. Honestly, I felt more supported during my workout. These things might actually be legit for exercise.
The next day, I went bolder. I wore the long-sleeve top with some jeans to grab coffee. I got a few stares, but I think it was more because people were trying to figure out where they recognized the shirt from. No one said anything negative, so I counted that as a win.
The Final Verdict
- Comfort: 8/10. The shorts are a bit tight, but the top is super comfy.
- Style: 7/10. It’s definitely a different look, but it’s growing on me.
- Functionality: 9/10. These are great for workouts, no joke.
So, would I recommend Skims for guys? Hell yeah! If you’re open to trying something new and want some extra support during workouts or just in general, give it a shot. It’s not just for the ladies, and it’s definitely not as weird as you might think.
That’s my story, folks. Stay tuned for more adventures in fashion and life. Peace out!
