Best fitting, flattering versatile shorts

Best. shorts I bought in 20 years. I hate my thighs. I can't stand high rise shorts. I avoid side pockets because they add visual heft. I don't buy shorts because they always leave me feeling self conscious and uncomfortable. But these shorts are perfect everywhere, top to bottom. Incredible fit, fe...

Size up 2 sizes? No thank you.

Ok, so everything I buy at Athleta is a size 12. Everything always fits to a tee. Imagine my horror when I pulled these out of their package, and COULD NOT EVEN GET THEM ZIPPED UP. I was horrified. Double checked the size to make sure they were a size 12. They were. Got so freaked out that I pulled ...

I absolutely loved these shorts. Wore them on a trip to Mexico then brought them to a summer trip in Europe. Wore them about 10x and the zipper broke. Kinda heart broken because I thought I finally found the perfect shorts. I'm tempted to buy them again but won't.

Perfect stretch and comfort

These are so comfortable! The stretch is perfect! I am 5'7 130lb and i got a sz6 Because I have a larger waist. These are the first high-rise shorts I have bought in years

I have these pants in 2 colors and love them. When I saw the shorts for the summer, I ordered the same size (10) and they fit perfectly. They are a great length as well. Not too long and not too short. They also hold their shape very well while you're wearing them.

Great for looking put together on a casual day. Comfortable fabric that breathes and a wider fit on the legs keeps everything cool and breezy. Great length, and the high rise waist adds to a more elevated casual look. Although my waist measurement aligns with a 6 on the sizing chart, I sized up to an 8 and it fit perfect. Loved them so much that I bought 3 pairs total.

Love these!

Love these shorts! I bought them in two colors and might get a third. I did have to size up. Normally I'm a size small or a 4/6 in pants but I found those too tight in the waist. The 8 is comfortable and roomy

Love the color (pink) and the fit of these. I thought I ordered a zero but accidentally ordered size 2. They are a relaxed fit. The zero would have been a better fit for my body type but the 2 still works. I am 5'3" 110 lbs. 25 inch waist and 35/36 inch hips, good purchase. I'm happy I bought.
