Size up

It is definitely smaller than the normal sizing. I tried sizing up two sizes as some people have adjusted, but then you lose the shape of the shorts. They were Just snug at the waist, but not pinching, after one wash and first wear it loosened up. You can tell the fabric is giving to trust the proce...ss. I have a slightly more athletic shape, fuller bottom. I got black so it could be easily dressed up for evening, but overall I'm really impressed , Will definitely be part of my regular rotation in the summer

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 ...out last year's Brooklyn shorts to make sure I didn't unknowingly gain 10 lbs. They still fit perfectly. So thank God for that. But here's the thing…Athleta, why would you even make a pair of shorts so "off" in the sizing when you really seemed to have the whole thing down to a science? Trying to keep us on our toes? No thanks. These were promptly returned. Interesting factoid, the woman who did my return in store totally validated my experience. She had to go up 2 sizes to get a proper fit. I know people say that the size doesn't matter, it's all about the fit … but show me a woman who is willing to size up that much. The mental head game just isn't worth it.

Darling shorts. They fit great but I had to go up a size as the waist runs very small. Love the comfy, stretchy material. These can be dressed up or down!

Runs really small

Cute shorts, the white is nice and solid and not see through. But sizing is really off. I typically wear 6 in Athleta bottoms and I couldn't get these on! Size 8 was also too tight at the waist though fit well in the bum and hips. Will try a size 10 but might be too large elsewhere. 5'5", 135lbs, carry my weight in my hips.

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

what I like about these shorts is the length, the stretch of the fabric and you can dress it up or down. I'm still not sold on the high waisted trend b/c it's slightly uncomfortable to sit down; however, I decided I'll live with it. I'm 5'4" 115 llbs and the 0 fit perfect (also my normal Athleta size)

Great fit throughout the waist and hips. Material is soft and moves nicely with you while retaining its shape. Wish the shorts were just a bit longer.

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

Love these! I find shorts hard to fit, love the fit of these, they don't bulge at the top, can be dressed up or down. Great quality. I did find I had to size up. I am usually a 14 and the 16 was more comfortable.

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

This is my second pair of skyline shorts. I love how they fit and the fact that they don't have an elastic waistband. Most shorts this season are pull on shorts. The fit is perfect for an athletic body and fit true to size. For reference, I am 5'3" and weigh 123 lbs. I bought a size 4 which is typically what I wear.
