Reviews

The best shorts 😍

"Absolutely LOVE these shorts! I wear them all the time. They’re so comfortable and flattering. My only criticism is that the material is quite light and thin, and unfortunately the stitching ripped when the shorts caught on the edge of my car. I’d love to see the same style made with slightly more durable material."

— Georgia E. (5/5)

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."

— Taryn A. (5/5)

Flattering, but pricey

"I love these shorts! They are super flattering. I wore them for my half-marathon and they didn't cause chaffing, the material is light and comfortable. The only downside is the price, $75 for one pair of shorts is quite expensive, which is the only reason why I wouldn't rate 5 stars."

— Julia B. (4/5)

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)

Size up

"I am really liking these shorts overall, but a few notes. Size up! I am a size M according to the size chart and i got a size XL and they fit perfectly. If i wanted to waistband to be tight i could have done a L. I am 83cm waist. Also if you have thighs that touch, the shorts do bunch up which is a bit annoying."

— Patrice H. (4/5)

New favorites

"These shorts are my go-to. The high waist is so good (love the high waist more than mid rise, as being a taller girlie the mid rise waist made the shorts a little too short) I am usually a size 8-10 and get these shorts in a medium - I find the fit and length to be perfect going that little bit bigger in sizing."

— Callie H. (5/5)

Comfortable, Colorful & Great for Running

"Super comfortable and easy to move in! I love the color and design. I wore these for an 8K run on my first try and really liked the fit and feel. However, I noticed the fabric rubbing against itself and a few loose stitches afterward. Overall, still a good purchase and very comfortable for running."

— Maricar L. (5/5)

Barely there!

"That goodness someone’s picked up the tab for the slack in market for these baddies! Light everywhere and hides and the necessaries. I’ve been running for years and waiting for these lovers to come back in with style! While there’s always room for improvement I’d receive the elastic on the internal briefs, otherwise excellent pair of running shorts. I’ll be wearing these ever. Single. Run!"

— Deborah H. (4/5)

Very comfy

"Love the colours, the feel, the fit of these shorts. They are quite short but good for staying cool during workouts"

— Rachel L. (4/5)

I love the feel of

"I love the feel of the shorts. Very light. Having a booty makes them a title shorter than I’m comfortable with. Also I wish I had noticed the higher waist option. I would have ordered those instead. I was constantly pulling tank down to meet my shorts so there wasn’t a gap between material."
