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...

The perfect high-waisted running shorts! The rise hits exactly where I want it to just above my navel and the inner liner is comfortable without being noticeable for the duration of my 10+ mile runs. I wish they made these in more colors because I would buy them all! #sweepstakes

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!

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.
