Love these shorts

Absolutely love these shorts the way they fit and move while you move in them. The length is perfect. I was worried that they would be too short, but they are the perfect length that 4 inches. I will update the review after I wash them a few times to see how they uphold washing.

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4"" Short

These are the perfect workout shorts! The length is ideal! They are not restrictive at all. Love the lateral side pocket which is perfect to carry keys, credit card or IPod case. These are the only shorts I wear!

Great fit

These remind me of the Nike tempo shorts, which I love. I will say that I like the waistband on these better though because they conform easier to my waist. Love love love. Only complaint is that they're a little on the thin side.

Love these, so comfortable. I tried the small and medium, both fit, but I got the medium so they are a little looser

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4"" Short

Wore these shorts while hiking in Glacier NP. Perfectly comfortable (soft & stretchy), great length, wide waistband, and loved that they had a built-in liner. Size fit as expected.

Perfect Fit!

Comments about Mesh Racer Run Mid Rise 4"" Short

These are my favorite running shorts! They're lightweight, breathable, and super comfortable. The 4" length gives great coverage without restricting movement, and the fit stays in place whether I'm running, walking, or working out. Definitely worth it!

Love these
