I love these shorts, but they're always out of stock!

I purchased the 7" shorts last December in a medium and love them. They've held up well over the past year, with no signs of wear despite wearing this one pair 2-3x/week. I've been checking the Athleta website for more periodically, but they've been perpetually out of stock in M. Please don't discon...

They're good, but they will show sweat. Be prepared.

It's taken forever to get compression styles back at Athleta, so when these dropped, I was so excited I snapped up a few pairs. The good news is, their function does exactly what I need them to do -- good compression for high intensity workouts, giving me the support where I need it. And the highe...

Great, but NEVER IN STOCK

These are the only 7" short Athleta offers in a performance fabric made to withstand high friction activities (running, cross-training, etc.) And they only come in Black. And they are always out of stock. I am an atheltic build, size medium crossfitter/HIIT athlete who works out at high intensity - I cannot use workout shorts that ride up or need adjusting. These are for people who want shorts that stay in place and protect inner thighs from chaffing. And there are a lot of people who fit that description! I cannot for the life of me understand why there is only one option, especially when these are always sold out which means there is high demand. And I know this because this length and style of short is what EVERY SINGLE WOMAN in my gym wears during the summer, if they wear shorts at all. Or, IDK, just walk down the street in the summer and look at what women are wearing? It's like 50% bike shorts (and not the super short ones) where I live. No one is trying to wear those stupid little attached brief shorts that ride up and cut your inner thighs. No one wants a 2-4" inseam unless you're a human stick insect with thighs that don't touch. Or maybe people buy those just to lounge around in? Not me, not in this humidity. Please offer more functional 7"+ styles for highly active people. More colors would be nice too - but I'm willing to accept just black if Athleta can keep it in stock.

Perfect length. Amazing fabric, stay in place. Better than the 9" and 5" which are too long and too short. Please bring these back- they've been sold out for months and I need more!

I purchased the 7" shorts last December in a medium and love them. They've held up well over the past year, with no signs of wear despite wearing this one pair 2-3x/week. I've been checking the Athleta website for more periodically, but they've been perpetually out of stock in M. Please don't discontinue the 7-inch inseams! They're perfect for us tall girlies who like to run and bike without thigh chafe. The leg holes are also tight enough to keep the shorts from riding up, the pockets are so spacious, and the waistband is nice and tall (though I would like an extra 1" of rise, as someone with a long torso who likes to hide their belly button)

Love this length! Very comfortable and moves well with me. Use it for kick boxing and it stayed put where it needed to and moved where it needed to.

Long distance runner, and 5" are not practical!! 7" dont chafe. Only thing is these NEED BACK POCKT like the Ultimates had!!!! (I have even learned to live w/o that) …but Plssss don't stop making these. I'm all set for a moment bc they last so long. I would buy so many more if u made in other dark colors and/ or subtle prints! (Like the black on black zebra ones a while back)

Please bring these back in more colors! The 7" inseam length is perfect while running. These do not ride up. They stay in place. No chaffing on 10+ mile long runs. Love these shorts!!

Love these shorts . Perfect length and very comfortable. They don't ride up at all. They have compression so I got a size small. 5'2" 113 lbs.

These are some of the best active shorts I have purchased. I bought the 2x with 7" inseam. They stay in place. Waistband stays up, thigh part stays down. They don't ride up or down when I'm bending or active. Looking to purchase more now.
