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 ...

Great fit I did go up from XS to S, so they would be a little longer. I'm 5'3" and 117lbs.

Comfortable shorts.

The shorts fit well, they are true to the size. Material some stretch, which makes even more comfortable.

Comfort Does Not Disappoint!

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

I need these in every single color. I previously owned the pant version and needed new shorts for Summer. I haven't gotten out of them. I throw them on to go to the pool, for a dinner night out, or just causally running errands. You can dress them up or down because they're so comfortable!

Great short but runs small

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

I love this short and have purchased it in three colors. The white ran very small. This short already runs small (typically wear a 4 or 6 but have to size up to an 8) but had to return the 8 and get a 10 to fit in the waist. Very odd sizing. Overall, the short looks great for a variety of outfits. The length is perfect, even though I'm 5' 10".

I love the fabric, color and style but they are way too short. I normally get size 6, I also previously purchased wide leg long pant exactly the same style in size 6, so I thought that 6 in shorts would also work. Wrong. They are way too short and kinda tight around the waist. When I drive I am basically touching the seat with my skin and half of my butt is out. I am constantly worried that my butt cheeks are showing when I walk. I'm too old for that, I want to be comfortable and confident that I look decent and I'm covered. Sadly I will be returning both pair. Athleta please give women more inseam and coverage!
