Love These!!

Initially I wasn't convinced I'd like these shorts. I usually wear a size XXS in all Athleta tights, but these felt pretty tight. However, while the XS felt more comfortable, there's no drawstring. I figured they might fall down a bit while running. So, I opted for the XXS, and honestly, they were p...

Lots of extra material

Ordered these in green and when they arrived I thought they were adorable! Fun colors and Inloked the look of the waisteband. Unfortunately after trying them on, they just do not work. There is so much extra material over the spandex shorts. I don't think sizing down would help. I usually order medi...

Wasn't quite the normal fit for me. Usually Athleta fits just right. Loved the color. Gave to my niece, she was thrilled

Fabulous short

This is my favorite short and hope they don't discontinue. The material is soft and the compression short with pockets for my phone is a huge bonus. Love love love the gripper strip on legs. Never ride up. Only lil negative is the waistband. I wish it was traditional elastic and string because I find the material currently used tends to stretch out with my sweat.

Great shorts, sizing a bit off…?

Comments about Crossover High Rise 4"" Run Short

These shorts are great, but the inner "biker short" is very tight around the quad area. I wanted to love, but ended up returning them.

Looks good and it fits well

Would definitely size up on this one as the xs is rather snug.

These shorts are comfortable and stay in place when I'm active. I use them for tennis, kayaking, and just hanging out. Love them! (Especially the pocket)

Rides up and rolls down

I bought this for a boot camp class. It is high waisted but it needs a waist string, otherwise the waist rolls down when in movement. I wore it once on a long run and the outer shorts do not have a hem so it rides up in between your thighs. This is a disappointment for any real high impact workout, might be okay for walking or hiking.

Comments about Crossover High Rise 4"" Run Short

Cute garment, the sticky coating on the inside of the legs (It is supposed to keep the garment from riding up) is very uncomfortable and annoying. So actually five stars for looks--One star for comfort

Love these for running!

Love these run shorts! They have the inner legging lining with deep pockets on each leg so I can run with my phone, car key, and identification without worries. Any the outer short is lightweight covering the undershorts so no one can see my pockets.

Perfect running short

Stay in place during a run due to the grip on the inside seam. Very comfortable and durable.
