These are really comfortable shorts to swim/bike and run in.They do tend to run a little big so I would order a size down if you are in between sizes.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

Great shorts! I am loading up on them now before the season gets going. They have a good sliming effect and the grips keep them from riding. I can also flip the grips to allow them to slide if I want and the cuff looks fine. I love the low profile riding pad that does not look bulky. All the right things in all the right places. My husband even stole one of my other pairs. I guess he doesn’t mind the logo because he loves them too.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I just got these shorts so that I could use them for a triathlon in May. I wore them today for a 5K- immediately loved the feel and the look. Then I ran and I came home and ordered 3 more pairs. They are great. They are comfortable and form fitting. They don't ride up the way shorts tend to do. Absolutely would recommend them to people who are active!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I like the 7" bike short better than the 5". Has nothing to do with performance or quality, just personal preference. The Danskin bike shorts are lighter and work just as well as the more expensive bike shorts. I also own exercise clothing and sports bras that are also well functioning and stand up to repeated washing. Some I have had for more than 3 years.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I just started triathlons and needed a pair of good shorts that would stay down while biking, but would not interfere with my pathetic running (I'm super slow--so I'm out there way longer than most people). These are AWESOME!!!

Service & Delivery comments:

Superfast delivery, arrived in perfect condition, included FedEx label and return instructions--one of the only companies (besides REI and NRS) to be so customer friendly and really care about customer service.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I LOVE these shorts! I used them in an indoor triathlon a few weeks ago and want to shoot myself for not having bought 3 pair when they were on sale. After swimming, there is NO chafing rubbing anything when biking or running. I don't know how they perfected the seat, but wow. AWESOME. Perfect length too.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I was thinking about purchasing some cycling shorts . . . I tried some on, but then thought, "ah,I own a Danskin one-piece tri suit, and I like it--let me see how the Danskin tri shorts fit and feel." I'm glad I did because they've been great to train in (though I haven't yet been swimming in them).

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I am 5'8" and 7" is a great length. I originally purchased a Large thinking the compression would make them feel smaller. They were true to size and I had to exchange for a Medium.

I love these shorts. I wear them when I bike or run. I will be wearing them during a triathalon in June. Can't wait. I know they will be perfect for this event because they dry fast and don't ride up.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I had to return the product as I should have ordered a size smaller. It was too close to the Danskin to get another one, so I bought a different brand at [...], which was local. I WISH I had known I could buy the shorts at the TRI Expo the day before the race as I would have made my purchase then. Maybe let participants know that in advance!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

Great short for training and triathlon--good design and comfort, however, the Danskin logo almost immediately started to come off which made it look like it was molting. I finally pulled off the remaining loose pieces. It would have been better without the "sticker logo" and just a small classy Danskin dancer on the leg.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

Using this product for my first TRI. I've been training in them for a few months now and they are just great. They fit well and do not ride up or chafe while you are swimming. I hand wash in cold water and hang to dry-no problems so far. Also not a bad price compared to what's out there!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

The shorts are comfortable for shorter rides/races. They do fit a bit large (I am a size 8), so I have worn them for training and not for a race. The Danskin logo is starting to peal off after a couple of washings.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I had bought this product at the expo the day before my first triathlon and wasn't sure if it was a good idea to try something new on race day. I loved them. They are suprisingly comfortable to swim in and don't let your legs chafe during the bike or run, plus, they dry really fast. A little pricey, but it's worth it!!

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I have been doing triathlons for years (and marathons) and have never been able to find "the right" tri bottoms for me. I found these at the Danskin Expo the day before the triathlon and they worked GREAT! I already had in mind what I was looking for, and I finally found them. KUDOS TO DANSKIN APPAREL!

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

The pockets on the thighs serve as major drag while swimming, and I bought them for triathlons so I do swim in them. Pocket would be better on the back. Also, they lose their shape when wet and end up quite a bit looser than they were while dry, when they had felt just right. Also, after 1 use in the pool and then biking, the "Danskin" decal is already pealing off.

Comments about Danskin Women's Triathlon 7" Bike Short:

I really like the shorts, they are comfy and what I was looking for to compete in my first triathlon. A couple problems, they run small. I suggest trying them on in the store and then ordering online. They do shrink in the wash at home, even in cold water and no dryer. Overall though, they are a good product and I woud buy from Danskin again.
