* All measurements are guides only. From time to time some people might find that their perfect size does not line up with the size chart data.

How to measure:

Waist:
Measure around the middle of your natural waistline, this should be approximately around where your belly button sits or just above.

Hips:
Measure around the widest part of your hips, making sure the tape measure is sitting straight around the largest part of your bum.

Hot Tips 🔥
- The measuring tape should fit closely around the body without squeezing in any way.
- If your waist and hip measurements fall in different sizes, we recommend following the size of your waist measurement.

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!"

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."

BEST RUNNING SHORTS EVER

"First time I wore these shorts was for a half marathon, no chafing! Comfiest, lightest, cutest shorts I own and I’ve tried all the lulu and free people ones. New favorite brand for sure!"

Alyssa W. (5/5)

Perfect for summer running.

"Absolutely love these shorts, very much worth the hype! I am 45 years young, avid runner- currently gearing up for hot and sweaty NYC marathon training. I was hesitant to buy these shorts after only seeing young running influencers wearing them. I took a chance and I could not be happier. Ran 7 miles in 85 degrees this morning. Zero regrets and I will be purchasing more of the this style. For reference I am 5’2, 115 lbs."

Melissa (5/5)

The color combo is so good!

"The fit and softness is perfect. I am 130lb and 5’4” and I ordered a medium. They fit great but I could have sized down! It was the colors that sold me. I love these shorts and will definitely be buying more!"

Andrea S. (5/5)

INSANE

"I’m so obsessed with these shorts I’ve already ordered 3 more pairs! I haven’t found any chafing yet and I’m working towards a 10km. True to size and super comfy. The little key pocket in the back is also so elite. Wouldn’t change a thing about these!!"

Sophie C. (5/5)

Pilling 2 wears in

"I’ve worn these shorts twice and they are already pilling. I have similar shorts from a competitor that I’ve had for 4 years and still look brand new even with weekly wear. 3 stars because they’re super cute and the color ways are fun but kind of worried about the longevity."

Ashley R. (3/5)

Fav running shorts

"The shorts are lightweight and airy and the briefs inside stay in place. The waistband is supportive without digging in and there is a tiny little pocket on the inside for keys etc. I think the only thing that could possibly make these shorts even better would be the addition of a little zip pocket along the back of the waistband but considering the quality I’d definitely buy these shorts again in more colours!"

LSKD accelerate Scarlett red🤍🤍

"I love these accelerate shorts so much. They came quickly within 5 businesss days and they are always packed carefully with. Thank you note. These shorts are high quality and perfect for running’s or even just a lazy day at home"

Chloe K. (5/5)
