Could be better

By jenny2409772 Ranked #273 - Women's Shorts October 17, 2008

I bought these because I was looking for "real" compression shorts for under $40. I was also excited about the promise of heat gear in the summer for long runs in the heat. These ride up, pretty terribly, so you don't get much compression benefit from them if you have larger than supermodel sized thighs. They are no cooler than the faux compression shorts I got at Target for $10. Also, I bought these in july and 10 weeks later they are pretty trashed. I've been wearing them once a week for running, washing on gentle cycle and line drying but they are starting to snag and fray. (To be fair, I do run on trails and occasionally encounter knettles and branches, so maybe they would hold up better with lighter use.) I just tried Go-lite slim kickins and they are everything this short is not.
