    Lightweight, comfortable

    I bought these to wear for pickleball and not running and love the soft waistband and how the fabric moves. I usually don't mind liners in shorts, but these do make it feel like I have loose underwear on. I wish it was more like compression shorts. Not a big deal though. They still work great for pickleball!

    I'm pear shaped, 5'5", 33" waist, 39" hip and the shorts fit really nicely.

    *Thrilled* these are back

    These have been my go to shorts since 2017, and I spent the entire time OV was shut down trying to find a replacement and never did — the combo of the think waistband and the loose drape of the legs is just so flattering. For reference I’m 5’0” / 100 lbs but with muscular quads.

    If you also used to own a pair, the sizing is a bit bigger than it was in 2023 (which ran small), but fit exactly like the older pairs I have from 2020.

    I never write reviews, but reallyyy want to make sure they restock.
