Reviews

Fun colors

"Loved that they’re lined, I don’t have to worry about lip slips when I’m doing burpees 😂 I have a little mom pooch and the high waisted ones makes me feel secured. I love all the fun colorways and these are my 4th pair and I want more! For reference I’m 5’2 and 135lbs and got a medium"

— Emily m. (5/5)

My second fav running shorts

"I love the pacer short and I thought I would give this a go as this style has more colour. The shorts ride up when running but otherwise very comfortable. I love the indigo blue but pacer shorts are still my favourite."

— Ivy N. (4/5)

Perfect Fit & So Flattering!

"For reference, I'm 5'3" and 127 lbs. The Small fits me well but feels a little more snug around the waist. I went with the Medium for a slightly more relaxed fit—it feels comfortable and loose without looking or feeling too big."

— Emian E. (5/5)

GG Accelerate 3" Mid-Rise Running Short - Baltic Sea-Lemon.

"Love these shorts! They are super lightweight and comfortable and look really good! The one thing I would say is that they are pretty short and also don’t have a big pocket, the split in the side does go high up as well, also they don’t say to size up but I would cause they run a little small, but they do look and feel absolutely amazing and would re purchase again!! Also love the colours as well"

— Mia W. (4/5)

Love the look and fit but the seams is another thing…

"The edges or the seams are coming apart after one wash and the material is piling considerably. I’ve only worn and washed it once… I love the fit and the comfort of the shorts but at this rate of deterioration I’m not sure it will last me very long."

— Natalie H. (2/5)

Super cute

"Obsessed with the colours of these shorts. I got the high rise as i am 5’7 and they are the perfect length. Personally I’m not the biggest fan of the briefs in the shorts especially as the lining of them can be seen through the shorts - would really love if they did a bike short lined version."

— Tamsyn T. (4/5)

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)

The perfect short

"The most comfortable and sexiest running shorts I’ve ever worn! I even tested them during a HYROX race and they were amazing. It honestly feels like running with nothing on. And the colors? 🔥 They’re turning heads! 😍"

— Barbara T. (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 and brand unlocked

"I love these for CO summers! I was worried they might look too thin/see through online but after buying them, I'm obsessed. Love the high rise, waist band, and flow of them!! Will definitely be lifting and running in these"

— Aniko B. (5/5)
