This short fits perfectly and are very comfortable. Also the pockets are great, specially the back one for my phone. Works so well and I bought my second one.

Great shorts for all sizes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely love these shorts. As a woman with chunkier thighs I find it hard to find a good pair of running shorts but these are worth every penny! They fit really well and although they do ride up slightly it's not far enough to cause issues. Would highly recommend.

Excelent

I’m XS. I’ve tried both the XS and S sizes and I personally feel more comfortable in the S size. The fit is still snug but gives just a little extra room. I love the pockets and the breathable fabric, keeps me cool and dry, even during intense sessions.

Good fit marathon shorts

Originally posted on adidas.com

Yes, I recommend this

These running shorts offer an excellent fit and are super comfortable, even on long runs. Perfect for marathon racing. The three pockets are a great feature — practical and well-placed. Only downside: the fabric feels a bit thin, so the quality could be improved slightly. Still a solid choice overall.

Did not like :(

Originally posted on adidas.com

No, I don't recommend this

I did not like these shorts at all. I have other adidas running shorts that I love so I decided to try these. As a short girl with thicker thighs these were uncomfortably tight around my thighs to the point I could not wear them. I ended up returning them.

They're super cute!

Originally posted on adidas.com

The shorts are super cute. However, I feel like they fit. bit tighter than the OTR leggings. I normally wear a small in the leggings and feel like I should have gotten a medium in these shorts. The small still fits but a little more snug than I'd like them to. Other than that, they are super cute and feel great on my runs.
