Ran a little big.

Comments about Athleta Women's Retreat Linen Mid Rise 4" Short

I just bought these and they are very cute and would be comfortable, but ran a little big. I always wear a small but needed an XS in this item (I am 5'4" and weigh 110#).

Comments about Athleta Women's Retreat Linen Mid Rise 4" Short

Super comfy and the fit is flattering. Just be careful about undergarments with the white fabric.

Comments about Athleta Women's Retreat Linen Mid Rise 4" Short

I’m trying to wear less synthetic clothing (hint hint Athleta 😊) and these shorts work perfect. A summer favorite. Sizing: I’m usually in between a small and a medium. I prefer small in these shorts.

Comments about Athleta Women's Retreat Linen Mid Rise 4" Short

I love these shorts and have one pair in this linen color already but since I love them so much I wanted a back up pair or an extra since I love to wear them so much in the summer/spring. I also just bought the brown. They're comfortable and don't wr…
