Amazing

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wearing these athletic shorts nonstop. They feel amazing, like your skin, but better. Very comfortable for running errands and working out. Breathable and they fit so nice. Love the high rise and the length. I will definitely purchase more in different colors.

Very comfy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love to use shorts like these for under dresses to reduce chafing of the thighs in summer. These are super comfy to wear and overall I am impressed with the quality.

Super high quality shorts!

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are very high quality shorts! They fit well, have a nice snug feel that has lids everything in place. They are thick yet breathable and durable. They go great with my new balance shoes! The only downside is the front seam, I’m not a fan of front seams because I like pulling up my workout shorts a lot during my workouts and the seam gives me the infamous “ front wedgie”. Besides that though they are amazing!

Body shaping and comfy

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was nervous these were not going to fit because I generally wear a size large and these are a medium, but they are perfect. They sit right above my knee and the band comes to my belly button. Everything feels held in nicely. They are comfortable to wear.

Buttery soft and fit amazing!

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts really are buttery soft! They fit well without being too snug or gapping at the back either. I have several pets, so I was happy to note they don't cling to dog hair like some fabrics. I will say it still sticks a bit to it, but it's easy to brush off. They were comfy during jogs with my dog in the evening, and I didn't suffer from any thigh chafing. I will add, though I don't like the front having a middle seam as it can ride up a little. I definitely would get another pair and maybe try their other shorts.

Buttery Smooth Active Shorts!

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are buttery smooth! So soft and comfortable, yet provide enough support for physical activity. I found the length to be long enough to prevent chafing, while the top part of the high rise style was great for stomach smoothing and an overall comfortable feel.

Runs small

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3 stars because shorts runs small and its not true to size. I usually wear size xs, i chose size xs and its more xxs. Fabric is soft and comfortable. I liked it, so sad that its really small. :(

Super comfortable and flexible enough to fit end o

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If this doesn't speak for the stretch/flexibility and comfort of these shorts, I'm not sure what will 🤣 I am currently 37 weeks pregnant (with my 3rd) and got a medium thinking I wouldn't be able to even get these on past my thighs for a few weeks post birth at a minimum but I was shocked to find I could pull these up over my big belly. Even more shocking, they don't appear at all stretched out from me trying them on. I usually wear a small in most things and am about 5'1" 125lbs pre pregnancy. Now I'm currently around 155 lbs. I don't really plan to wear these until after I give birth but from trying them on I probably could wear them if I wanted to, they didn't seem to squeeze much on the belly and were really comfortable. They seem thick enough to not show underwear and such but thin enough to be comfortable, breathable and obviously very flexible. I look forward getting to wear these more once the belly is gone and am happy to know I've got another post partum option to get me through all the changes. I'd highly recommend especially if you want something that stays up without squeezing or causing discomfort.

Good fit and compression

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Special thanks to Influenster and New Balance for sending over these bike shorts in exchange for my honest review! Overall I really liked the fit of these. Good high waist and it didn’t roll up. The material was soft but provided a good amount of compression

Nice shorts
