Under Armour Women's Play Up Twist Shorts, MD

I use these for CrossFit - they are great - roomy enough to move and not rub but don't fly open while working out / squatting. Relatively think, but haven't found them to be too hot. Very comfortable, an attractive length without being booty shorts. I'm 5'4" and approx 118 lbs. leaner build and XS fit me perfectly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a couple of different colours of this short! They are my favourite! The stretchy wait band is comfortable and the pockets are great; they aren't shallow! The length of the short is perfect as well ... Unlike some athleisure shorts where you're constantly pulling them down. They are my everyday summer wear. I don't use them to work out in as I find the material somewhat restrictive on the thighs if you're doing a lot of lower body leg stuff like squats. I'm constantly pulling the shorts up higher to get a lower full range squat. For this reason I prefer compression shorts for weight days. They are nice to run in as well... But again I prefer compression for actual activities. I normally wear a medium in UA compression gear... But these are loose fitting so I wear a small. My measurements are: waist 27" / hips 37"/ Thighs 21" Height 5'5 /130lbs with an athletic build. I usually push the waist band down so it sits lower than the natural waist ... On my hipbones.
