Great shorts that don't show

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

Great shorts that don't show sweat (no swamp crotch) or ride up your thighs as you're working out. Would highly recommend, especially from such as ethical brand as Girlfriend.

Great so far

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

Great fit, tight enough to not ride up - or down - when running. Side pocket fits my big old iPhone. Next test will be hot yoga but I’m not worried!

Good shorts, great for yoga

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

Very good quality shorts. They are a good length and the thickness is just right. The colour is also lovely. The compression is extremely good, almost to the point of being too good and it makes me unsure if I got a size too small, but there is no risk of anything moving and you feel very secure wearing them.

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

True to size, hold you in around the hips and waist but don't squeeze above the knees.

Comfy, stretchy, no vpl and no see throughness. They fit really well and the size was accurate. Like that they're high waisted. Will wear to the gym and with a baggy tee as casual wear. Thanks! Love that they're climate friendly

Bought as a present for my daughter, she’s a size 8 and the small fits perfectly. Really good quality fabric and beautiful colour. She wore them for 3 days in a row just around the house! Great buy.

This fabric is so nice!!

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

This fabric is absolutely lovely, and genuinely feels expensive. I was a bit sceptical given that they are made from recycled materials but they're the nicest leggings I've had in a long time. I have worn them to work out and they were really comfy and a nice thickness. Thicker and slightly less stretchy than your standard lycra but I honestly much prefer that. I am probably a UK 10/12 in the waist but much bigger in the hips and thighs and bought a size M. I really like how they are a true high waist (maybe a little high for me but I am 5 foot 1 so fine for most people). They pinch a little in the thighs but as I said I have big legs and it's not enough to make them uncomfortable. I purchased the moss colour and they are really lovely and will definitely be purchasing more items from girlfriend collective

Love them!

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

Love the dark green colour of these bike shorts! I'm a UK size 10 and wasn't sure how to fit was going to be but I went for a M and they fit perfectly. They don't cut into my thighs like some other bike shorts I have tried!

My new favourite yoga/workout kit!

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

I'm so thrilled with my new Girlfriend Collective bike shorts and top. I've been tempted to buy a GC set since I first saw this brand on instagram - and I'm so pleased I finally did. Excellent quality, flattering design and size wise - I'd say they are spot on. I did return the Paloma top, as it was a little on the large side. But the Dylan fit perfectly. So many great colours to choose from, I went for a shade that could be worn with everything - but am tempted by some brighter shades in the future!

[Employee of thesportsedit] I have this in a few colours now as it's such a versatile style for working out in summer and just wearing generally when the sun shines! Love the high waist. Washes well too.

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

I don't really like shorts but I really love these leggings and have them in a couple of colours now. Wear them when I run and they don't fall down, but also just wear day to day as they are so comfy.

Gorgeous colour and comfy!

Originally posted on The Sports Edit

The colour really is gorgeous first of all! I've not properly tested them yet but they are so soft. I might have been able to size up because they are possibly a little tight but I need to try them properly to be sure. Regardless they are still definitely wearable and I'm very pleased with the purchase!
