Perfect running shorts!

I brought these shorts for running and they didn’t disappoint! They’re perfect for the job. They look and feel great! Only bonus would be built in cycling shorts underneath but otherwise they’re perfect. #teamsweatybetty

Ride up

I wanted to love these. Unfortunately the short itself rode up a lot meaning my legs rubbed pretty bad only on a 5k run. I have these in a medium and am pretty much a medium in all other SB stuff. I will retire them to shorts to wear to the gym when not running

I really love the material and the look - lovely light weight fabri. Consider sizing down. I am UK size 10 wearing SB leggings in size M. I had to return the shorts in size M as they were way too big, and ordered size S.

Brought these in a medium. I have found them comfortable whilst running 5k without chafing. The zipped pockets are a game changer for me.

Great running shorts. Lightweight and so comfortable. 2 little zipped pockets so can carry key /gels but not big enough for phone. Pleased I bought them.

I purchased these for summer activities and working out. 4-6 in jeans and ordered the medium to accommodate some curve. I LOVE these shorts. I ordered in black and orange. I did cut the liner from the black pair. Great length and the total cut and drape of the shorts is super flattering. Ordered in a Medium

Great for running, nice and light with built in knickers. 2 small side pockets useful. Washed well and quick to dry. I'm UK10 and the small fitted fine.

My new favourite running shorts

Love these for running when I don't feel like wearing the tighter styles. They offer really good coverage but the high hem at the sides means they're still super flattering. I sometimes find the inner 'pant' can be a bit uncomfortable but these fit really nicely, even on longer runs. I'm a size 6 and bought the XS. #teamsweatybetty
