Finally!

It took me a minute to find my size in these but once I did, I'm very happy with them. I have the mid-rise version of these shorts in a medium (and most of my leggings are a medium), and felt like I was between a medium and large in these because I'm a little thicker in the middle and the thicker wa...

Fit is off

I exclusively buy Athleta clothes for my workouts. They hold up incredibly well and usually have a flattering fit. The Mesh Racer being my favorite short. This new version is not flattering at all though. The waste-band is terribly high and bulky! I'm a petite woman-4'11 about 115 lbs, athletic buil...

Comments about Mesh Racer Run High Rise 3"" Short

Airy and light, these are the perfect shorts for a run! I do find that the zipper pocket is in a odd spot in the mid rear of the shorts but I'm only carrying a key and a credit card so it didn't distract me that much. Purchased it in Aqua and it's the perfect color of the summer!

I love these shorts! The high waste is perfect and shorts have a nice zipper pocket for key, gels, etc. Please make more colors!

Comments about Mesh Racer Run High Rise 3"" Short

I'm a big fan of these shorts - this is my second pair! They're nicely high waisted, good length so my butt cheeks are covered, and all-around good quality! I'm 5'5" 130lbs and sometimes struggle because I'm bigger on bottom than in my waist. I wear a small. The waist could be sliiiightly more fitted but also don't want them too tight.

The colour is not as bright as I expected and they also are a very loose fit.

These shorts are soft cute and comfy. Wear them to the gym or out and about for errands and hanging out. They cover all the areas and are not tight. I could have sized down but don't like the tight feel elastic might have around the waist. Great length

Love the shorts, but wish you had all colors still available in 4", all year round. You all are out of everything, sale or non sale. Limited sizes available and colors.
