New Favorite Running Shorts

I bought these in 3 colors because I loved the way they fit when I tried them on in the store. After running in them, I can tell you they do not disappoint. It's like they weren't even there. I am 5'5", 130 lbs and purchased the XS. I don't normally consider myself an XS, but that's what I seem to a...lign to in Athleta running shorts.

Great fit, poor quality liner

I loved these shorts from the minute I put them on, however, the liner panty is made of fabric similar to pantyhose. On the 3rd wearing I had a hole. Too delicate.

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4 Short

I buy these in every color offered each spring. They are simply the best. I wear them to walk, run, lift weights and just around the house/town. Crazy good fit. Love the length, pockets and all the functionality. Please never change the style just add more fun bright colors! NAVY would be amazing.

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4 Short

These are my favorite shorts! They're so comfortable and fit so well. I bought them to replace shorts that I had gotten elsewhere that weren't flattering. I will definitely be ordering more colors!

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4 Short

I love that these shorts have a nude lining so they aren't see through. They do sit a little lower on the waist than I thought but still very comfy and true to size. #sweepstakes

Love these shorts. I have been wearing them for years. I'm a bit older and have gone up a size. I'll buy more if they come out with some more colors.

I wanted to like these but even the nude built in liner is see thru on the white. Also I prefer higher rise.
