Reviews

The best shorts you will ever wear.

"The best running short! I al a size 14-16 and wear these in an XXL. The cut of the short is both freeing and covering for a beautiful flow and performance. The fabric is light, no texture or rubbing making these one of the most comfortable pairs of shorts I own. I allllways get compliments too. I’m an hourglass shape with a mum tum so I prefer to size up one size to help with personal preference on aesthetics."

Stepping Outside My Comfort Zone 💗

"I absolutely love my Accelerate 3” High-Rise Running Shorts in Boysenberry/Pink Rose! The comfort, amount of space, texture, and colour combination are everything. I’m usually not one for bright colours, but I wanted to step outside my comfort zone. I originally purchased these as a statement piece to celebrate completing my first half marathon, and honestly, I’ve never looked back! They made the milestone feel even more special, and I’m so happy I went for something outside my usual style. They’re comfortable, practical, and the colour combo is gorgeous. I would definitely purchase more!"

Josie S. (5/5)

Best colour combos!

"My favourite material for shorts, super lightweight, quick drying and the colour has not faded yet after 12+ washes. I would say true to size, I’m usually a small 6 and I wear a size XS. I have 6 pairs of these and will happily buy more as further colour combos come are released. No shrinkage at all from washing, (I line dry inside)."

Danielle W. (5/5)

Best running shorts imo

"I’ve tried so many running shorts from different brands, they either don’t come up high enough, or give me a nappy bum or are just too heavy. These are perfect and so flattering on. Only thing I will say though is if you like to colour coordinate your outfits the teal and pink leaves you limited to what you can wear with them. But that’s just me being an odd ball."

Hannah C. (5/5)

Perfect running shorts, barely notice they're on

"These are fantastic running shorts and the lining is great. I like the slit on the side because it doesn't restrict my running. Would purchase again! I did purchase in a medium and they fit 'just right'. For reference, I'm 5'7" and 135lbs with an athletic build."

Alicia O. (5/5)

I have 5+ pairs

"These shorts have replaced all my athletic shorts. I play indoor and grass volleyball and have thicker thighs than most but a smaller waist. I love how these flow around my thighs and don't limit my mobility. Usually split side seam shorts have spandex shorts underneath that ride up, but these have a brief style liner that is comfortable and stays in place! The most I have to do is pull the fabric out from my lack of a thigh gap with these shorts. I get compliments all the time on them and love the different colors and styles!"

obsessed with running shorts

"Really happy with my LSKD running shorts! ❤️ Delivery was super fast, and the shorts are honestly fantastic—so comfortable and great for running. I already have **8 pairs!** 😂 Hoping I can get a free pair for my birthday! 🎂😂 Just kidding! Seriously though, I absolutely love them and will definitely keep buying more soon if i have budget again. 🤣 I just hope LSKD opens a physical store in London someday! 🇬🇧 That would be amazing! 🏃‍♀️❤️ Also, Thank you for the free shipping🥰"

Perfect shorts for running

"I’ve struggled to find good shorts for running. Most of the ones I’ve purchased in the past don’t combat chafing or are so long I’m giving off Adam Sandler vibes. These are great, love the pocket at the back and they come in a range of colours. I will continue to purchase these for years to come :)"

AMAZING PRODUCTS BUT EVEN BETTER CX

"I accidentally ordered the wrong short and reordered the one I wanted but it was outside of the window to cancel it. When I got onto the CX team they replied so fast isssued me a refund and cancelled the order but it still came!! And when I offered to return they told me to keep both!!! I’ve bought a lot of gym gear from different brands and I’ve never got this level of customer care ! THANK YOU"

Emer F. (5/5)

Short but so worth it

"I was sceptical buying these as I have always been a tights curly. Surprisingly, they have become my favourite shorts! So lightweight and breathable, comfortable and they look good. They are a little short if you don't like short shorts or have a bigger bum, but I feel so good exercising in these."
