Avoid! They ride up within seconds

I bought the longest leg length in these shorts and within 2 minutes of a run they had ridden up to resemble underpants. So uncomfortable. So badly engineered. Just avoid.

They ride up terribly!

Originally posted on adidas.com

Was really hopeful about these shorts and purchased the longest length to mitigate any movement. Yet, two minutes within my run the shorts rode up such that they were basically like underpants and kept reverting to that position however many times I pulled them down again. Have never experienced shorts that hit just above my knee riding up so much, especially when they were a secure fit to start off with. This doesn’t happen with competitor brands and was incredibly embarrassing when I was running. I don’t understand how this pair of shorts can be on the mass market with the price point they have yet be so poorly engineered and uncomfortable for runners

Not for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were not for me unfortunately. I'm plus size at the moment and they were not as comfortable or as flattering as the OPTIMÉ ESSENTIALS are.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was not the way I expected. Too thin and the fitting is not great.

Your butt cheeks will be on full right display. They ride up like no other. Very uncomfortable.

My fav leggings - because there is no seam at waist band or bottom of leg so they don't cave my stomach in and scrunch around my leg. They are slimming

Ideal running short

It’s lightweight, has pockets big enough to fit an iPhone pro max 15, and doesn’t move. Perfect for days when you don’t want to wear a belt/vest!
