Cute short/

Great shorts for running or working out. I sized up as other suggested, but did not need to. I think they fit true to size. Size medium fit great in the waist and legs. I'm usually a small or medium in Athleta leggings.

Ride Up

I read the other reviews which said these do not ride up - well, they did for me and are the worst for this out of any of the bike shorts I own! I don't understand why my experience is so different.

Comments about Pacesetter Ultra High Rise 4"" Shortie

these are great for under skirts. 5" is even better for my body, but 4" with the grip at the hem of the shorts is enough to keep the chub rub away. the band doesn't roll down either. true to size. #sweepstakes

Good for thigh-less.

Thread around bottom hem was too tight. Does not look flattering. Ordered medium.

Thick thighs

Comments about Pacesetter Ultra High Rise 4"" Shortie

Great fit. It has some ribbing at the rim on the leg opening so the short won't go up while you're moving

Exactly as expected

Perfect in every way. Cool details like anti slip grippy pads around the leg opening.

Runs a tad small

Buttery soft but still holds everything in. The other Athleta bottoms fit true to size but these feel more snug. I should've sized up.
