[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed some shorts for Pilates in the summer these were exactly what I needed. Wish it had 2 pockets instead of one though

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the shorts very much with the exception that they roll down a little bitand that can be annoying when working out or walking. I would still recommend them. The side pocket is a good choice.

Soft and comfortable.

These shorts were great for my run. Very soft and long enough so that my legs weren't chafing. However, as I expected, the lighter colours show all the sweat! I would try a darker colour or a pattern next time. But very soft and comfortable.

I really like the quality, price and size. They fit just perfect. My parameters are: hips 97, waist 65-66 and I ordered size M and it was perfect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shorts are great, comfortable, good length. The only downside is they are pretty see-through so not sure if it's the colour or the material.
