Great shorts
I really like these shorts. I’m in my 50’s and it’s hard to find a short that’s not too short to workout in, but these are perfect. I now own a few pairs. Very comfortable, very flattering. I am 5’8” 148 lbs, the medium fit perfectly.

Too frumpy
I thought I wanted a longer short but when I tried these on I immediately felt older, frumpy, and masculine. I ordered another short with a shorter hem and instantly looked thinner. While the legs are loose, the waist seemed small for a medium. I usually find the waist to be small on Sweaty Betty bottoms. For someone 5'5" these were too long, but might be better on someone taller.

Shorts Are Long on Appeal
Comfy shorts that are long enough for tall women. M runs a bit big, but I kept it. I am between a 6 and an 8 and these feel like a 10.

Comfortable and true to size
These shorts are slinky and comfortable. They run slightly large, but the nice drape and tie waist remedy that. I just with they were tumble dry.

Best Athletic type Shorts
These shorts are the best dri fit type shorts I have ever had. They are a bit heavier fabric which keeps its shape and wears well. They are very comfortable and wash up well. Wash them inside out and either hang to dry or low temp in dryer. They seem to be true to size These shorts are my favorite!

Great style, nice fabric, very happy
Finally found a nice style for a woman over 50. Fabric is soft and doesn’t wrinkle, nice flattering cut. Not too short, not too long. Will be buying more.
