Rode Up

I have a love/hate relationship with Oiselle shorts. I keep trying them even though it seems like every one I try rides up my thighs. The return policy also isn't great because you cannot take the shorts out for a run to see if they ride up. These shorts fit okay, but as soon as I started walking around my house the thighs started to ride up.

Ok shorts

I got these because I thought they would compare to the O mazing shorts. They are okay. They run big (particularly in the waist; chronic oiselle issue). Not nearly the compression of the O-mazing. They aren’t bad but they aren’t great either. They won’t be my go-to. Please make more O-maxing colors!

The shorts of my dreams!

Love love love these shorts! They stay put in the waist and at the legs. Fits like a glove in my normal size 8. Perfect length. The back pockets are so functional and the waistband is super comfortable. The only thing I wish they had were side pockets on the legs too, because I don’t care for the material or waistband of the pocket joggers. These are now the only shorts I want to wear for both running and CrossFit workouts!

Too short!

Had high hopes for these - they fit and feel great at waist and hip and I love the pocket features but on me they ride up pretty badly and look a bit more like booty shorts than I’d choose. Who knows how that’ll play out on a long run? Can’t send them back bc I’m In Canada so I guess it’s just gonna be a hot girl summer. Oh well.
