Great running shorts
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
Love these shorts, perfect for running, inside pants actually stay put once wearing/running in them, very comfortable :) I got M instead of a small (I'm a size 10 usually) but I wanted shorts to be loose.

I really like these and will buy more in different colours. They don’t ride up, are very light weight and have been great in this hot weather. I am a uk size 10 and bought medium which are a little big but not too much so very comfortable, and the draw sting & elasticated waist mean they feel very comfortable and don’t slip down. The zipped pockets are good too.

I love these shorts! I don't usually wear shorts but decided to be brave and try it out. These are perfect. They are a perfect fit and really comfortable with no chafing. I feel confident wearing them and they have helped to keep me cool during this hot summer.

Wash and dry quick. Good shorts
Originally posted on sweatybetty.com
I bought these for circuits and other classes. They have been well used and wash very well and dry quickly. I think I should have bought the smaller pair as they are abit big on me but that is my own fault and not a problem with the shorts. Overall very pleased with them

Comfortable and flattering.

Comfortably flattering and soft feel. Would benefit from a solution for holding a phone, but pockets are useful for other items. As a non-thigh gap human, when I ran in these, they did ride up between it thighs and I had to move them down to prevent chafing. But when wearing casually they were very comfortable and I had no issues.

I got these because I loved the colour but I wasn't sure how the fabric was. Overall,great fit . I had to return them because I have other similar ones . A bit disappointed to see that the discount for health professionals went form 40% to 30% .

Very comfy shorts! A tiny bit on the short side but great for running in. Would love to see these in a slightly longer length.

Inside pants unexpected

No, I don't recommend this
I don’t like the large black pants inside then as they make the Shiites feel uncomfortable.

I really like these shorts generally. They're comfortable, lightweight and I appreciate the inner lining and the pockets. However, I find that for running, they begin to roll up and I have to keep pulling them down, which is a real shame. I think something built in underneath to prevent them rolling up would be great but aside from that, I love how they flow and they fit well.

I bought these for outdoor exercise on holiday abroad. They are ideal. They look good and are comfortable with a pant section inside. They are so light and I am looking forward to wearing them
