Definitely runs small!

I love wearing shorts under dresses. As a toddler mom, I feel it's *necessary* lol Mine were stretched out & not fitting as well, so I decided to buy these during a sale. I'm SO glad I read reviews and trusted the few that said these run small. I sized up (normally XL in Athleta leggings- the elatio...n 7/8 are my favorite) to 1X and they're still tight. I almost wasn't sure they were going to go on. But once they were on… magic! They're so comfortable. They suck me in (I know these aren't shapewear but omg they're great for that under my dresses) and I know they aren't going to fall down on me as I walk. I'd feel comfortable running in them, too. I took away one star due to fit but I really do love these already!

Arrived with pubic hair and menstrual blood

I received these shorts in Punch, and after opening the package, there were pubic hairs along with what appeared to be menstrual blood all over the shorts. I immediately contacted customer service, and spoke with 2 different supervisors. The last supervisor I spoke with informed me that and investig...ation has to be opened and I have to submit pictures of the shorts, tags, and outside shipping label. After submitting the photos, Harriet called me back and offered me a refund and a $10 credit, never offering a replacement of the shorts,she said I would have to place a new order for a the shorts. As an icon member I'm not sure I will ever be shopping at Athleta again. I will spend my money elsewhere after the lack of customer service I received. Very disappointed.

Comments about Elation Ultra High Rise Shortie

All of my workout clothes are from Athleta, and I love them. I wanted to love these so much, but I found these a bit too see through for me. I love the color but unfortunately they did not work for me.

Great high waisted alternative to spandex shorties for athletics. Comfy, good quality, and a pocket!
