New favorite

These are my new favorite running shorts. The only thing that could make them better would be pockets on the legs. I love the waist band, doesn’t dig. True to size. For reference, what works for me: I’m 5’2”, 130lbs, 28” waist, 38” hips, 22” quads. Size 6 fits perfectly!!

Love!

Maybe I need to size down, but my usual size 6 isn’t compressive at all. The waistband is so soft and comfortable! I wore these for a 6 mile speed workout and they didn’t budge. Loved them! The only thing I wish they had was a smaller, more secure pocket for my key. The zipper pocket is big enough for my phone and keys, but they bang against each other and the sound bugged me. The open pocket didn’t feel secure enough for a key. A little slip pocket in the front of the waistband would make these shorts absolutely perfect for me. 5 stars anyway, because I love them.

I really wanted to love these shorts. The high waist is perfect for me right now, especially as a postpartum runner recovering from a belly birth. However the legs don’t stay in place and just ride up, turning the shorts into booty shorts which I find very uncomfortable.

Favorite gym shorts

These shorts are my favorite for gym workouts or a quick jog. They do ride up a bit while running but are always comfortable and the waistband is the perfect hug without being too tight. The new twilight color is super cute!
