Looks great, size up

These are a great staple compressive short! The look is sleek, the inseam is a perfect length, and the reflective details are a nice touch. I ordered my usual XS (5'1" and 115lbs) and then got a small just in case. The XS was too tight on the waist, so I would size up from your usual size. The botto...

No pockets fail!

I didn't read closely enough and got tricked by the photo of the side seam, there are no drop pockets. The back pocket would be ok for just a phone, but if you rely on drop pockets for lots of things, these won't work for you.

Comments about Pacesetter Ultra High Rise 4"" Shortie

these are great for under skirts. 5" is even better for my body, but 4" with the grip at the hem of the shorts is enough to keep the chub rub away. the band doesn't roll down either. true to size. #sweepstakes

Thread around bottom hem was too tight. Does not look flattering. Ordered medium.

Great fit. It has some ribbing at the rim on the leg opening so the short won't go up while you're moving

Perfect in every way. Cool details like anti slip grippy pads around the leg opening.

Buttery soft but still holds everything in. The other Athleta bottoms fit true to size but these feel more snug. I should've sized up.

Comments about Pacesetter Ultra High Rise 4"" Shortie

These are great workout shorts. I usually wear a size 6/medium. The shorts went on last chance sale so I purchased a medium. They were uncomfortably tight. Thinking that even a large would not be big enough, I ordered an XL. They were huge. Still on last chance sale, I ordered the large and they are just right. Just call me Goldilocks.
