I love these shorts, perfect for daily morning runs
I now own about 8 pairs of these shorts. They fit well, and hold my phone and other small essentials (earbuds case, lip balm, key fob). The waistband is comfortable. They launder well and don't wrinkle. 5'8" and 125 lbs in a size S. I own them in black, pink, 3 different blues, purple, white, and orange. At first, I sort of struggled with getting my phone in and out of the rear pocket, but I can do it quickly now as I'm running without having to stop.

New Favorite Shorts!
True to size. 5'9 168 lbs and size large fits perfect. I get uncomfortable in short shorts, but absolutely love how these are short in the front yet longer in the back to provide that extra comfort coverage. I bought additional pairs in other colors after getting the first and loving them. No front pockets but there is a functional back pocket. Comfortable stretch without feeling loose after a day of wear.

I am sure I'd love this in a few months.
I am currently almost 3 month's postpartum and I ordered these in a medium due to the large waistband in hopes it would give me support in the midsection as I begin my workout journey again. Unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations or maybe those were unrealistic. The waistband is more of a midrise and kind of squishes me around the middle. I would prefer these to be higher rise - at least covering my belly button and with less compression in the very top part of the band where it kind of sinks into my waistline. I could probably size up to a large if I really wanted to. I LOVE the color of the Ink Blue style - it was gorgeous! And I liked the fit in the legs as they are meant for running, it was very flowy. I will keep these on my "Save for later" list and maybe once I am down a bit more in my postpartum journey I will give theses a second try. For reference, I am 5'5" and currently 140 with a long torso. I carry most of my baby weight in my belly, love handles and my bum (hopefully I can keep some of that ;-)).

Awesome and secure- a great dupe!
Detailed review ahead (girl, be ready for a novel)….I have to say first that I am a die hard lululemon fan, but I work as a choreographer every summer for a well respected theatre camp. Last year, all my lululemon running shorts and most of my tanks were on their last leg. I had heard about these online and wanted to give them a try as an alternative for summer camp, as I could spend less and buy more colors to mix and match. WOW! For the money you can’t go wrong. I purchased the white, black, denim blue, and jade green tanks and the matching mesh lined high waist running shorts. I am 5’7 and your typical smedium 32dd. I ordered medium across the board. I rapidly lose weight over the summer due to the heat and the exercise. I feel these will fit me if I fluctuate as low as about 15 pounds lighter. Tanks- These are fantastic. They are not for super high impact, but for lower/ medium impact dance they are great. I can also see myself wearing these all summer as loungewear or with shorts. If I sized down it would’ve given me more cleavage than I wanted. I may try taking in the liner a bit for more security near the end of summer when I’ve dropped weight. Great lululemon dupe. Comfortable and flattering. The ONLY con I have is that the size varied slightly by color. The black and white fit more snug (which I preferred). The denim blue and Jade green fit a little looser as you can see in the side profile picture of the denim blue set. Shorts- these are great dupes as well! The back pocket completely fits my iPhone XR. The side pocket is super secure and deep. The shorts are slightly longer in the back. The high waist is pretty small and includes about an inch of tighter elastic. I personally like this for camp so my walkie doesn’t pull them down, but if you have more of a square figure it may pay to size up. The tank meets right where these shorts start. My only complaint on these is sometimes the way they lay can look a bit funky in the crotch area, but nothing too major. The colors all looked great. I wore the white with red underwear and it didn’t show through where the mesh liner was. As a set- Black is perfect and what you’d expect. The white is a CRISP white. Like, it made me pull out my teeth whitener white. It’s beautiful, but literally my Snow White OPI nail polish even looked a tad dingy in comparison. The Jade green shorts were a slightly different shade than the tank. It was not enough for my husband to notice without telling him. For some reason it looks a lot different in the photo but they’re more similar in person. The blue is a pretty darn close match. If anything, the band is slightly different due to the different material. It’s not a dealbreaker for me, as I plan to mix and match a lot Final thoughts- I love them. I sent both my sisters the links to them, I will live in them all summer, and I will be buying more sets in a variety of colors. Lululemon who?

“High waisted” may be misleading
First off, I would like to say that I like these shorts. They are really comfortable, I like that it has the zipper pocket in the back as well as the little elastic pocket in the front of the waistband, and for the money I’m very happy. So, functional, comfortable, good price and seeming good quality (I’ve had mine about a month and use them at least 1-2x week). The reasons I wanted to write this review: - “high-rise” vs “Mid-rise:” they don’t provide the coverage I wanted for my midsection (I had hoped to rock a crop top with the shorts the same way I wear crop tops with my high waisted leggings. They do not provide high-rise coverage, and my opinion. In the photo I took here, I pulled the shorts up as high as they were comfortably go. That looks like mid-rise at best to me.) - I don’t like the look. I bought two different styles of high-rise workout shorts off Amazon, and I dislike the fit of both waistbands. This waistband is comfortable, but visually I dislike the look.

Great fit and fabric!
These are soft and well-made. They are adorable on and the panty underneath is roomy and comfortable. Just got the top to match as well as another set in black/white!

Perfect! Need every color now!
Absolutely PERFECT!!!! I've lost a lot of weight and have been struggling to find shorts in my new size that are also long enough. These are quality made, perfect length- long enough to cover what I want without having to pull them down constantly, but still short enough to look cute. Perfect stomach coverage for my little pooch from losing so much. Will definitely be buying more! I'm 5'4," 128lbs, size small is perfection!

I have bought two pair!
I love these shorts so much, I’ve ordered two pairs! My husband is sweet, but he doesn’t usually comment on my attire. He gave me so many compliments the day I wore these shorts, I had to buy more! I love feeling of these shorts because they are so breathable and light! They are not see through at all and I feel like they are so simple but so cute! I’m not a huge fan of the pockets because they are small? But I just accept that I won’t have pockets when I wear athletic shorts! It’s not a big deal to me! These are cute and definitely look more expensive than they are!

Ok I wasn't expecting to like these, but will be ordering a few more. They are very comfortable, no riding, no hint of chaffing and I felt like I looked great!
