Fit Changed from Last Year

As other reviewers have mentioned, Athleta changed the cut of these shorts so that they are slimmer. The last few years, I was a size 4 in these, which was TTS for me and a perfect fit. However, this year the size 4 is way too small. Tried on a sz 6 and 8 in stores when I went to exchange, and the 6...

Hideous new design highlights your gut!

Trekkie North Shorts have been, for years, a staple in my closet. I love the quick dry fabric, the comfortable waistband, and the versatility of being able to dress them up or down. Unfortunately, as of Spring 2023, the design has changed - and not for the better. The entire waistband used to be a k...

This is my second pair because these are my favorite shorts. There's no real front zipper, so it sits flat and they are the perfect length for making your legs look good.

Love these shorts.

Comments about Trekkie North Mid Rise 3.5"" Short

Pull on super comfortable, stylish. Could wear them out hiking or paired with a nice top out for a casual day of sightseeing. I'm 5'7", muscular frame 165lbs and I originally ordered a large and although they fit, there were a little loose and I found I had to pull them up. I exchanged them for a medium for a way better fit.

Perfect fit and comfort

Love these shorts! The waistband is soft and high, so there's no tummy bulge. And the length on the leg is just right. I bought two in every available color. Please make more colors - I'll purchase them all!

So glad to see these back. Fit is TTS 140lbs 5'4", muscular build, can wear 6 or 8, 8 fits looser but comfy. Kept both because I'm between sizes. Super comfy, no bulk and soft waistband. Please make more colors, and restock, I would buy them all.

Disappointing Redesign

I have 3 pairs of these from years ago and LOVE them but the redesign is terrible. They fit like spandex leggings over my legs now and the material is so much thinner so they feel cheap. So incredibly bummed. Will be returning.

I love the fit of these so much I had to get 2 pairs! I wish there were more colors because I would have a pair in each. The length is perfect for me (I have short but thick muscular legs) and the rise is perfect too (also because i am short waisted). In a world where everything is high rise and comes up to my boobs, this just sits nicely at my belly button. And they look great in the booty too! BTW I always think Athletas bottoms and pants run a bit big so I would usually get a size larger at any other place - but for Athleta this run pretty true to size.
