Great pair of shorts!
Love them! I am 5'7 and about 185. I got the XL and they are comfortable.

Very Unflattering On Me
I usually really like Zella and wear a size S in their line of clothes. Unfortunately, these shorts were extremely unflattering on me. I don’t consider myself as having large thighs but the leg bands on the shorts were tight around my thighs and gave me double thigh (is that a thing? Lol). Basically I looked like stuffed sausage. Just overall, the shorts weren’t very complimentary on me (my butt looked even flatter than usual in them). For reference I am 5’5 and about 140lbs. Will not be keeping these.

Would recommend, just choose right size.
Very good quality material, does not slide down, makes my body look flattering, and the pockets on the sides are a nice plus. The only issue I had with these shorts is the sizing. Normally I'm a size S, but these shorts I needed a size M. The issue in size is visible at where the shorts end on my thighs, just a smidge too tight. Too bad there's no option for exchange with online orders.

High waist bike shorts
Too tight in the thigh area. Otherwise comfy and cute but knew I had to return because the tightness would bother me while running.

Runs small and Nordstrom has gotten a lot stricter with their return policy and did not honor my return. Very frustrating.

Size up
I have the high waist daily leggings and the rise and fit is similar, but these shorts are a bit snug in the thigs. I wear a small in the full length leggings, but I would suggest sizing up to avoid the shorts cutting into your thighs for a more flattering fit.
