Ok... first let me say that I ordered a large because I followed the size chart (I typically wear M/L). Reviews all said basically that they followed the chart and it worked out great for them. Ok cool. When I received them... they looked like a small. Ugh. I was almost ready to send them back but I went and checked the chart again just to make sure I didn't screw up lol (I've done it before, usually at a store though). Nope... I did it right. Ok... I'm going to wash them and take a chance because they are so cute. So they are washed and clean (still look small) and I squeeze them on... THEY FIT!!!! AND ARE SUPER CUTE!!!!Now for the bend over/ squat test - NOTHING SHOWING!!!Yep, these are fantastic! I have also used them under a dress to smooth everything out (I'm considered athletic body build but have a bit of a belly from a recent pregnancy- still looks like I'm about 7 months preg lol) and it works pretty well as long as it's not skin tight.Note: this does smooth things and is a little snug on the belly area but isn't going to flatten or suck you in (for reference - with them on I look more like 4 months preg lol). They are very comfy though, don't cut in anywhere, and really easy to move around in so a definite win and will absolutely buy more!Now I need to find the pants version! LolThese arrived at my doorstep, not in my mailbox, in a clear, ziplock type package. The bag had holes in it for keeping it from holding air/being a bubble. But to me this also indicated that if it had been wet outside, the shorts could’ve gotten wet. If the ziplock had gotten slid open somehow during any part of the shipping journey, the shorts would've just slipped out. Anyone walking by my door could see what was in the package, and they could’ve taken the shorts out of the ziplock bag, closed it back up and left it on the doorstep. Fortunately I don’t live somewhere where this happens a lot, but that’s just a warning for others who may be weary of porch pirates.I returned because: I’m 95% sure these will show sweat. I’d be shocked if not. I knew the risk of a lighter color but still wanted to see them in person and give them a try. The moment I put them on I felt hot and restricted and like I would sweat before I even started working out. This made me weary of just eating the money I spent and giving them a try at the gym, so I returned.The shipping thing makes me worried about ordering other items from this brand, even darker colors that don’t concern me sweat-wise.I have worn these shorts 3 times to workout in since I purchased them. They work best on days that I do light cardio and weights, but I can't wear them running because the waist band does slide down and the hem of the leg rises up my thighs. I have a couple pairs of Lululemon biker shorts that don't ride up, and I was hoping these would be a more budget friendly option. I still really like them, and they are super flattering, hold in my Mom-of-3 tummy, give my booty a bit of a lift, plus the option of pockets are a big plus for me. I am 5'9" 150lbs and I ordered a large after reading reviews that they run a bit small. They look very small right out of the package, but they have a lot of stretch.These shorts are great for the price. I like them better than gymshark! They do run small. I am 5'3, 138lbs, pretty muscular, and am usually between a small and medium. I ordered mediums and they are a little tight but nice compression, I could easily fit a large if I wanted a more loose fit though. The printed ones are a tighter than my solid color ones and they tend to role down at the stomach when lifting but they don't ride up! That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5! I will be ordering more!Honestly I love these biker shorts! They are 10/10! I got the black in a medium and the polka dot in a large only because the print expands lol. Ive used them for leg day and they are not see through at all! Ive ran in them and use them for about every workout and they dont roll up. These are my go to when working out!so im a girl using my bfs acc lol btw… but omg these shorts are perfect! i bought them when they were in sale 100000/10 i’m 4’11 & 130 lbs i have hips and got a M to have that extra room for when I squat!!! so if you are a Small and want a tight fit stick to a S but if you would like a M and a bit of room get a medium! I think a large would of fit too but stuck w a medium!I wear these to lift in. They are the best. So comfortable, and great quality. do not ride up on my thighs. (I have bigger legs & hips for my weight/size so they work for me). squat proof. I wear them so often and I bought other colors.I love these shorts!! I have the leggings version of these from BB and I think the Aoxjox matrial is better. So soft and stretchy! I got this Fudge Brown pair in size small and the white dot in medium. Both fit well. The smalls are slightly more compressive but still not too much so. I don't think it will roll down on the waistband or roll up on my legs when working out. I think I prefer the size medium for lounging around. I just feel a little more comfortable. The white dot print is also more soft and stretchy feeling so maybe that's why I like it better.If you're similar size to me? yo can't go wrong in either a small or medium. Just depends on your compression preferences.I'm 5'5" 130lbsWaist: 28 inchesHips: 39 inchesUsually a size small in shorts and leggingsI would suggest sizing up, I’ve read a few other reviews before purchasing the shorts and went from my size which is a medium, to a large and it’s so worth it. These shorts are so soft and comfortable. 10/10 would purchase again!Buffbunny dupe!They are a thinner material but good squat coverage and light weight!Makes me feel soooo good! I’m in between sizes so I’m happy I got a mediumLiterally just bought more!These shorts show up looking like they won't even fit your thigh but they fit! They are Squat proof and don't roll like crazy! They fit the booty and thighs perfectly! They feel super soft as well! Recommend!In love with the color and material. Super soft. Be aware thos, the material is so thin it’s molding a camel toe. Squat proof and comfortable
