I got these in an XL thinking they'd be too small; they're not so I'm thinking they run a bit larger compared to the tighter shorts. I am keeping these and probably also buying the L & M as I continue to lose weight.

Bought the light color and now ordering the black.

I'm super disappointed in these shorts. The color and fabric are great, everything else not so much. They are super short, like butt cheeks hang out if you bend too much short, the waist runs big, and they do this weird flare out thing in the hips. Definitely not made for my body.

the back of the short waist has a bit too much fabric
