Great for running, gym and cycling

I never thought cycling shorts would suit me but the 6 inch are so flattering (I’m 5ft4). They’re basically like the power leggings but shorter. I’ve worn them for cycling, gym and running and they’re brilliant.

Uncertain quality

The shorts are a good fit. I bought these as they were in a recent sale. I bought another pair in a different print but had to return them as the seam split during the first wear. These have held up well after a few washes.

This is the second pair I’ve bought, love them. I use them for running, decent pockets, the back fits my phone and the side for a gel. Good waist support and hold their shape well.

Good quality, maybe 9 inch would be better for me though as I find these ride up a bit.

Total game changer
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
I brought these for bounce class which gets super sweaty. I was skeptical but these are a total game changer. They dont roll up and wick the sweat away perfectly. As these shorts are so amazing im going to look into options for the cooler weather 😎

cute but they run small

These run small. I have these shorts from a few years ago and they fit great, so I reordered the same size and they are too tight.

Lovely fabric and fit. So nice to have an alternative to full Power Leggings for yoga in the hot weather! The pockets are very useful too.

The best running shorts
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

I use these for running and they are perfect. I used to wear a size large but recently went down to a medium and the fit is better for me. I’m usually a size 14, but can sometimes be a 12. This makes it hard to determine the correct size for me, but getting the correct size has made these shorts the only thing I can run in now. The shorts don’t ride up and the tie waist is excellent for securing them further. Chafing is not an issue so no need to bother with a chafing balm. With the navy colour I get some light sweat patches, but the fabric absorbs this further into the workout and stops being an issue. Quality of the shorts is also perfect.

Not the quality I was expecting

I have owned this shorts for a couple of weeks and the writing/labelling on the inside of these shorts has come off already. They look more like they are years old as opposed to a few weeks. Not the quality I would expect from Sweaty Betty or for the price.

Great fit. Stay in place, have enough compression to provide support and prevent uncomfortable chub rub while maintaining comfort. Also squat proof.

Great for working out!
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com

I'd previously bought the micro leopard 6" shorts in store, and having worn them a couple of times in the gym, they passed muster and I decided I needed another pair! I loved the subtle camo print when I spotted them, and it's even better in person; really understated yet not just plain old black! Fit wise, they are very comfortable, they don't roll down at the waist and stay put on the legs. Great for squats, lunges, walking, and all the other gym work I tackle. Not see through at all, and I think they're pretty flattering. I'm not a fan of the phone pocket on the side and don't use it, but it's just another layer of fabric and it doesn't bother me. I haven't utilised the zip pocket at the back, but it would be handy for keys or a gym locker fob. Overall, great shorts for working out!

The best running shorts I’ve found!

Purchased these as a re purchase, as I already have them and love them so much. They are so versatile, and provide so much support. They are the only shorts I have purchased that I don’t get any chafing with when running, they fit so well and are so comfy. The pockets are a big bonus and I wouldn’t look anywhere else to get my shorts!

Poor quality material, avoid

I bought these in Navy and Black as replacement of my current one, I have also bought one in brown when I saw it in store. The quality in navy and black were significantly worse than the brown one, the fabric is thin, less flexible with poor stitching. I did compared the size and there was only 2cm different so hardly anything. I don't understand why darker fabric have to be worse when they are more expensive? SB, did you run out of the fabric or you just don't care any more ?
