Comments about Danskin Girl's Cotton/Lycra 3" Bike Short:

I thought by the picture that they were going to have a little length to them but when I got them for my Daughters recital and she put them on they didn't even come to the middle of her thighs. When she put her t-shirt on, she didn't even look like she was wearing any shorts at all. Not really what I was looking for but others might like it.

Comments about Danskin Girl's Cotton/Lycra 3" Bike Short:

I bought these to wear under practice shorts for cheer practice.. they are perfect if you need just a little something more to be covered. they do run small so definitely go for the bigger size if you are in between. I bought all 3 colors and have washed and dried with no shrinkage and no fading so far with the black and navy.

Pros:
Breathes Well, Quality Construction
Cons:
Shrinks, Too short, Uncomfortable
Best Uses:
Ballet
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Danskin Girl's Cotton/Lycra 3" Bike Short:

The bike shorts were purchased to wear under school uniform dress. The quality of fabric and craftsmanship is great but they are not long enough to be what I would consider "bike shorts". They measure about an inch or so from the crotch down the inseam. I would be more likely to call them "short shorts". My daughter pulls at them and complains that they ride up. I would recommend this item to be used in a dance class only.

These allow my 4-year-old daughter to wear the many dresses that are just a little to short for our liking. To bad there aren't more colors to choose from.

Comments about Danskin Girl's Cotton/Lycra 3" Bike Short:

My 7 yr old granddaughter is very modest and if her outfits do not come with built-in shorts, she wears a pair of these. She loves wearing dresses and in case she is playing or lying about, she feels no one can look at her panties. Her mother and I like this modesty.

Comments about Danskin Girl's Cotton/Lycra 3" Bike Short:

My daughter is small and doesn't fit into the volleyball spandex that is available. We have used these shorts 3X a week for 6 months of volleyball practice and tournaments and they are still holding up great. Much less expensive that the volleyball spandex too!
