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.Amazon suggested I get a size smaller but I'm glad I didn't. These fit perfectly. The fabric is soft. They have a nice stretch and the waistband seam is stretchy which is an issue I've found when getting shorts. Sometimes the seam in the waistband is tight but not these. So glad I got these. Can't wait to get more. The color is also true to the picture.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!These shorts a great, they are functional with the pockets on the side and they definitely aren't see through! I do wish more colors had pockets though. For sizing I'm usually a 4 in pants, and weigh 125 lbs. I got both the small and medium and I could definitely fit in both but didn't want to feel so constricted so ended up keeping the medium only.I bought these to wear under dresses that are just a tad too short. I also work out in them at home and they are comparable to other workout shorts. They are a little too close to my skin tone so I don’t wear them to workout outside.I enjoy these shirts, great dupes for buff bunny ones!Same look, but does run small. I am 145 pounds and 4’11 height. It is a little tight I have a mom belly from c section and just having kiddos. I would size up.I 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
