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 ...

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

I love these shorts! They are a great length, have a nice high rise fit, and have a little stretch so that they are comfortable. I took the same size as I wear in Brooklyn Pants, size 0. I'm an XS in most other Athleta shorts. You can dress them up or down. I am packing mine for Europe!

Comments about Skyline High Rise Tailored 4"" Short

These shorts are very cute and have a tailored look. Be aware that they have some stretch to them, and the white is thin / see-through. Unfortunately, they were too long through the hips for me (I'm 5'0" for reference)

Great fit, so comfortable. They look like "hard" pants and stretch perfectly while keeping shape. Love them, bought more in different colors. Only wish they had a little more length.

Great on sale find.

Comfortable fit. I tried this style on one size larger than the pant. Great color. Bought on sale and bought the matching color poplin shirt for a very cute matching set.

Love these shorts

I love these shorts! I struggle finding shorts that are flattering. I will be getting another pair in a different color. I have an hourglass figure and I feel like high waisted shirt can look like a diaper but not this one. I wear a 6 but I got these in an 8, maybe the 6 would have been fine

Cute but

Cute shorts but I think I need a bigger size as I'm not sure if it was the seam placement or sizing issues, but I kept getting wedgies and needed to constantly pull them down

Cute but not for me

Very cute shorts and love the way they fit around the waist, however, I did not care for how they stick out in the back around the cuff.
