"These shorts are extremely comfortable and flattering! I am a petite girly and I love anything high waisted, and these Accelerate shorts in High Rise are amazing! I wore them for my first ever 10km running race and they were so free flowing and breathable. The fuchsia pink is exactly as pictured on the website too! For reference, I’m often a size small in tight, but bought the size 10/medium and they fit perfectly!"
"This shorts is the best. It’s light weight and the reflectors are perfect for night time running. It fits me perfectly and excellent for my hybrid sessions and running. I received a lot of compliments."
"How can you look past this colour combo? Completely fabulous style as always - I love the mid-rise accelerate shorts. The inner pant lining is comfortable and has perfect coverage. The mid waist offers full movement without any restrictions or pinching. There's a lot to love about these shorts."
"Absolutely love these running shorts! They’re so comfortable and breathable, even on longer runs. The colours are adorable and honestly half the reason I bought them in the first place. I find myself wearing them all the time now, not just for running because they’re just that comfy. Definitely one of my favourite purchases and will be buying more!"
"These shorts are so comfortable, my new favourite. I got the higher waisted version and sized up to M when usually I'm an S, but I think it's a perfect fit. I feel covered and comfty, nothing rubs or digs in. And such fun colours."
"These shorts are so comfy, they are my go to for long runs. Got the black first, I definitely red to buy more colors! Fit is true to size, i’m 5’3” 130lbs, athletic build and i wear small, could size up to medium for a slightly more relaxed fit, but with the slit the small fits perfect!"
"I had been holding off on buying these shorts for a VERY long time as I was worried they’d be too short, and living regionally with our closest store 2. 5hrs away I wanted to try them on first. Finally tried them on in store and quickly bought them. Tested them out on a run and they are the most comfortable shorts I own!"
"Absolutely love these shorts. The fit is flattering without feeling restrictive, and the high-rise waistband stays in place during my gym sessions without digging in. The 3” length is perfect , short enough to feel light and comfortable, but with enough coverage to move confidently. I’ve worn them for both training and casual wear and they’ve become one of my favourites. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfortable, functional running shorts that still look great."
"5 stars ⭐️ Training, running, and lifting in these shorts—where have they been all my life?! I love that they have no hem, so even when my legs touch there’s no rubbing. The flowy design isn’t too much either, so I never feel exposed—just perfect for everything I need. I’m 48 (49 soon!) and absolutely love these. Ordering another pair ASAP."
"Size is true to measurements. Material is good quality, thin and comfortable. The attached underwear doesn’t ride up so I feel confident that my modesty is protected when I run leaving me to exercise in comfort. Will definitely be getting these in other colours."
