Tasc Performance Review

Price and Where to Buy the Tasc Performance Clothes: Tasc Performance is available on Amazon or on their website. I tested the Core Racer tank top ($32), the Pizzazz II tunic ($74), and the NOLA legging ($68).

How the Tasc Performance Clothes Rate:

Usefulness: 10/10. Tasc Performance clothes are all made from a bamboo fiber blend, which is great for travel, thanks to its moisture-wicking, anti-odor, and wrinkle-resistant properties. They’re lightweight and breathable, and pack very well.
Value: 7/10. Tasc Performance Clothes are in the mid-range of prices for workout gear, but they will definitely outlast cheaper pieces.
Portability: 10/10. I’ve packed Tasc Performance clothes on a lot of trips, and they’re thin enough that they don’t take up much space, but still wear very well.
Durability: 10/10. These clothes are well-made and will stand up to repeated workouts and washes.
Cool Factor: 10/10. All of the pieces in this line come in great colors and fits, so you can look cool while staying active. Plus, the anti-odor fabric helps you stay fresh.

Final Verdict: Tasc Performance clothes make for awesome base layers if you’re skiing or doing other cold weather activities (especially the warm and flexible NOLA leggings). They also stand-up to the heat of a tough workout class or run. Plus, they look stylish and pack well–so add them to your workout wardrobe.
