Perfect lengths, no ride up
"I absolutely love these shorts ❤️. They are the perfect length for my long legs and they don’t ride up during running or HIIT workouts. I like the silicone gripper to keep the shorts in place and the fabric feels very light. I‘ve got two of them and would love to see some different colours in the future"

Love the shorts but…
"For the most part these shorts are fantastic, the only ones I now run in as they have massive stable pockets plenty of room for phones, keys and gels what ever you may need! They are very flattering I previously avoided tight shirts as I didn’t think they would look good but they changed my mind. I have six pairs now however one of them does ride up while the other 5 do not so not sure why there is inconsistency between the shorts when nothing else is different and some of the stitching has started to fray after a couple of uses. The other pairs of shorts I have worn for 25k runs and they do not budge- it has taken me so long to find a pair of shorts that I am happy with that are flattering and avoid chafing!"

Search for no ride up shorts continues
"As a lifter trying to do more running I have the issue of shorts riding up on my larger thighs. I was so excited to try these because I thought the sticky dots would prevent ride up. I sized up to a L (wear M in leggings) and the fit felt comfortable, not tight but not loose. However the second I started moving they rode up. The raw hem rolls immediately and no amount of silicone dots will change that. I don't think sizing is the issue as the raw hem just rolls no matter what. So disappointed, I loved the design of these shorts and had high hopes. I'll keep them for lifting and use clutch glue to prevent them rolling but sad I can't run in them."

Smaller fit but functional!
"The sizing is so whack in LSKD sometimes so take the sizing with a grain of salt. I would say these are slightly smaller so size up!! However I did love the grippy stickys on these tights. Stopped them riding up for sure!!"

Perfect running shorts!
"They are the perfect option for running, especially for those long runs! The silicone does its job to keep the shorts from rolling up; perfect amount of pockets for phone + gels + keys etc; quick drying and breathable fabric. . . Absolutely love and highly recommend these! 👏"

Tights hold up, bit of
"Tights hold up, bit of a thinner material compared to the Rep tights but still good enough for hit/cardio session in the gym"
— Pamela V. (5/5)
Nice material and comfy
"Really nice material, I was hoping the band at the top wouldn't be so big as high rise doesn't work for me. These do have great pockets in both sides and comfy enough to run in, I would really love to have these in a low rise for those that have longer legs and shorter torso."

Nice material but too tight and roll
"Bought for half marathon running, unfortunately they’re way too tight (I’m a size 10UK and bought M) and they roll at the legs. Material felt very good however and I imagine would last a long time."

Great tights for running. Will buy again!
"These tights are fantastic! They fit really well and the pockets for storage are great for running. True to size and fit really snug without cutting in around the legs or waist. Biggest thing for me is that they don’t roll down! My biggest pet hate with tights but they stay put! Will be purchasing more!"

Perfect for runs and workouts too
"The most perfect leggings ever, I have many pairs of LSKD but this one just sculpts the body, holds it all in when I am running and also doing my workout, absolutely love it and I just wish there were more colours!"
