Great pair of strechies. I live in them on the weekend. They're comfortable and quite flattering. I use them to shop as well as going to a barbaque.
I wish they came in more colors!

great fabric and the 7" legs do not ride up.

I love wearing these shorts for either the gym or when I know I will be running errands. They are super comfortable and help prevent chafing during workouts. I usually have a horrible time wearing regular shorts during a workout because they ride up. It has been bad enough to keep me off the elliptical machine, that's for sure! Being a rather curvy woman sized 12-14, I ordered these shorts in an XL knowing they would be very fitted, and this size fit me great. Keep this in mind when ordering! If you order the appropriate size, you will not have to deal with the "fat bulge" where the bottom ends and you'll have an incredibly comfortable pair of workout shorts.

The shorts fit like underware under tennis skirts. I am over 55, and I like the comfort and fit these provide when playing vigorious tennis in the hot sun. When I bend over or squat, there is confidence that my cellulite is hidden and I still look good in my tennis skirts.

I normally wear a size M so I ordered a M and it was too small. I then ordered a L. It is still a little tighter than I like. I bought some Danskin shorts in Walmart a few years ago in black, navy blue, and dark gray. I love them. Sure wish I could find them again.
I am over 50 and still play in USTA tennis leagues all year long. These shorts do not ride up your legs. I still wear tennis skirts and these bike shorts allow me to move freely across the courts. When my skirt flys up, no one will see the wrinkles in my thighs. Yes--we senior women want to look good and play well. Tennis panties are for the younger girls.
The first time I bought a pair was at an outlet, but it closed. I did not know where to get another pair. I looked at the label inside and got online. Wow!--was I happy to know I could buy them online. I buy 3 at a time. I have told all my senior tennis-playing friends about them.

The shorts are great. I love that they are cotton. I use them for all sorts of activities.

Great for exercising.
from 29 Palms, CA on 5/6/2008
Great buy, would recommend to those who like a little support when working out.
from Madison, MS on 4/24/2008
I walk 5 miles almost every day. These shorts plus a t-shirt are all I wear for exercise in warm weather. I also love throwing them on for trips to the store or movies. I LOVE them and they do not make your stomach bulge over the waist line.

This product is durable, lightweight and very comfortable for working out. It is also stylish enough to use as my weekend "casual wear". I have never been disappointed by Danskin since I can always depend on the quality of their merchandise.
from Bullhead City, Arizona on 3/20/2008
A great buy at a great price. Very comfortable and wear them every day.
from Columbus, OH on 3/19/2008
These are similar to the athletic shorts you see the contestants wearing on the Biggest Loser. As someone who has lost 60 pounds over the years in the gym, I can tell you that I couldn't have done it without shorts like these. In regular "running shorts" my thighs wouldn't survive.
They do run a bit small. I wear a size 12 pant and the XL works great for me. The 7" is almost too short, though, and if they did start to ride up that would ruin it. If you are just starting your lifelong journey to fitness and you are a plus-sized individual, I suggest the 9" inseam instead.
from Lincoln, NE on 1/8/2008
Because of my short stature, it is often difficult for me to find workout attire that is comfortable and allows for a wide range of motion. Breathability is an important factor as well, since I generate quite a bit of sweat when I work out. I am not a big fan of spandex! I like the longer leg length of the bike short. Since I work out every day, my workout clothes get a good dose of sweat followed by many trips through the wash cycle. Your product has fantastic durability (I recently purchased a pair of bike shorts by Champion and the second time I wore them they ripped in half. Not cool).
Thank you for offering a product that makes me feel great when I work out!

The fit is great. I wear these under my gym shorts and they are perfect for that.
