MPG Trixy Running Short - Women's - 2010 BCS

I have only washed these once, but I think they will hold up well. I ordered a large based on reviews (normally I wear a 6 or 8 in pants; I have a bootie) and it is perfect for me. Good for hot yoga. Bunch a tiny bit while running, but all fitted shorts seem to bunch on me. These are very fitted but not tight. Recommended.

Like Jaima, I normally shy away from short, tight shorts. But I've been doing a lot of Bikram Yoga lately, and in that class the more your outfit resembles a swimsuit the better, since you spend 90 minutes essentially swimming in your own sweat. These shorts are awesome. They look great. They aren't TOO short or TOO tight, and they have a medium rise that hits just below my belly button. Also, they don't ride up. For reference, I'm 5'4, 128 pounds with a slender waist and curvier butt/thighs, and I got the medium size.

First, let me start with a disclaimer: I do not normally wear short, tight shorts. That being said, these may be my new favorite gym shorts. The fabric is soft and stretchy, it doesn't pinch at the waist or around the thighs. They are snug enough that the legs don't roll or ride up (for the most part), but not so tight that they create bulges. I really tested these out by running (no chafing or riding up) and lifting (they slid up a little during lunges and squats, but honestly, what tight short doesn't?) and they performed wonderfully. The gray didn't even get obviously dark when I was sweating. I got the gray and blue ones and a coordinating tank top and am in love with how I look and feel in them! I'm 5'6" and about 135lbs and got the mediums.
