Reviews

Love the COLORS

"These were the perfect purchase for Pride Month but also perfect for feeling colorful while out running. The only caveat I have is that the fabric is so light that it is already starting to fray on the very edges of the bottom after one ru and one wash. I will wash a few more times before buying additional pairs as much as I love the lightness for the hot summer runs!"

— Brooke H. (5/5)

New favorite shorts!

"I’m new to LSKD but am quickly learning why it’s such a hot brand among runners! The barely there feeling is perfect for summer outdoor movement. I was a little disappointed with how tight they are on the waist band but I think I just need to order mediums in everything LSKD in the future instead of smalls. I’m 5’5” 125lbs for reference"

— Julia H. (5/5)

New favorite shorts

"I thought I wanted the high rise, but when I tried both I actually preferred the mid rise. They are so light weight and two tone color way is fun. I get lots of compliments. The built in briefs are comfy too. They are a high side slit which I love but might be a little high if you are self conscious of that area."

— Rachel B. (5/5)

Gorgeous colours

"Love love love this colour way! Accelerate high rise are my go to shorts for comfort and style for all my run sessions. Look so good with the pink rose accelerate sports bra. Running in these amazing shorts honestly feel like your wearing the lightest flowing shorts ever. They move so well with the body."

— Lisa A. (5/5)

The best run short around

"Ive worn activewear from so many brands for over 20 years. I've never had a better short. I now own several pairs of these. The perfect fit. I don't have to fix them whilst exercising, they stay put, no wedgies even when squatting. Perfect for running, when I do sprints , and for leisure. I wear them more than normal clothes! True to size."

— Abby N. (5/5)

Beautiful, but not thick thigh friendly

"Firstly, these are beautiful shorts and are in general super comfortable. The air flow is great and they move really well. However, if you are a thick thigh girly they don’t put up any sort of fight against chafing. Even anti chafing cream couldn’t save me with these beauties on 😢"

ACCELERATE MID RISE + LSKD MATCHING BRA: This Runner’s Dream

"I’m 5’7’’ and ~110 lbs and bought every LSKD Accelerate mid-rise short (2XS) and matching bra (XS or S) available and I’m in love. I wear them out and about and am constantly complemented — by FEMALES, at that! Women never complement me, I must put off a scent that makes them dislike me at the outset but in these sets, they’re complementing me, asking where I got it, telling me how fit I am, these things never occur in real life ;-) THANKS LSKD! NOW WOULD U PLEASE MAKE ENOUGH BRAS TO ALLOW EVERYONE A SHOT AT GETTING THE BRA TO MATCH THE SHORTS BEFORE INTRODUCING NEW COLORS? When you do that and stop making more bras in a given color, those of us who didn’t get the first batch are left searching the dark corners of the internet for people who might have one to sell us. It’s tiring. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Image below is Scarlet set."

Comfortable, flattering & great for running!

"I love these shorts! I chose the mid-rise style and really like both the length and how they sit. They are a slightly smaller make, so I sized up from my usual size 8, and I don't regret it at all. They fit comfortably and stay in place while running, making them super comfortable to wear. I'd definitely recommend sizing up if you're between sizes!"

Best shorts I've bought with color blcoking

"Great lining that doesn't ride up/move. Amazing colors. Great material. Love the flat waist band. Design is great (be prepared to show some leg). Only marked it down one point for slight lack of modesty (if that's your thing). Worth it."

Super comfortable 😍

"I was bit skeptical since it’s my first time buying this brand overall because I’m Latin and sometimes not all brand adjust to our bodies. But… it was great! Comfy, to the waist, great material! So recommended!"
