"I’m happy to say my Sprints shorts were a success on race day! I bought my first pair for the Mexico City Marathon. There was an issue when they arrived, but customer service was great and got everything sorted out quickly. They fit my water flask, and I had no issues with them during the race. I’m 5’4”, 130 lbs, and wore a size small. Excited to start growing my collection! 🏃♀️💕"
"This is my 3rd pair of Flexion compression shorts. It is a different material than the other ones I have. It’s not the same compression feel but it is more breathable. I just put these pair of shorts through a 20 miles run no ridding up and no adjusting them. They are a great pair of shorts and right amount of length for women that have thick thighs."
"I love the feel of these. The reflective pattern is great and super useful for my outdoor morning runs while its still dark. Fit is great. Thickness is perfect. Very good quality. These made me purchase the pink ones too in full leggings."
"Literally, I think Sprints uses magic on these seams. I got my first pair last year and don't think I've had to yank the leggings down once while running. I've been through a lot of brands, and as someone who often has trouble with other shorts that get a lot of reviews for not riding up, these are absolutely the best. Not my favorite colors/patterns and the skinny drawstring could be better, but definitely worth it for the comfort and ease of wearing."
"The length and color are great but there’s not really any compression. These would be great if they were high waisted, the waist is too low. The pockets were awkward and my phone just ended up weighing down the shorts. If you have bigger hips and a smaller waist I would NOT recommend these. :-( I’m disappointed and wished they fit better."
"Well fitted, super comfy, badass shorts. These fit us guys decently as well. I had to go with the 5" and it's not offered in mens. 31 waist 5'10" 175 Size L"
"First time ordering from Sprints. Love my new shorts and the herringbone print. The fit is perfect and the “stay put” silicone grippers at the hem keep them in place - wore for a HIIT workout and a run and they didn’t ride up my legs at all. Will buy again and recommend to friends. Also lots of compliments on the print!"
"This is my third pair of these shorts. I love them! The little grips on the hem and the drawstring at the waist are amazing to keep them from riding up or slipping down. The length is perfect for me—not too long or too short (I am 5’3”) and I always get compliments because of the fun bright colors and prints!"
"I really love my new shorts! I tested them during my running workout, and they didn’t roll up at all! They were perfect, fit me really well, and stayed in place throughout my run. I’m so happy with them!"
"They don’t move! 😍 as a thicker-thighed running girl these are elite. Ran 45 min in them and didn’t have to adjust them once! I’m 5’4” about 135 lbs athletic build and they are perfectly snug. They are tight on my thighs without circulation loss or discomfort. I will buy again! CHECK THE RETURN POLICY THOUGH!! Don’t get burned ladies 💅🏼"
