Customers praised these compression shorts for exceptional storage and comfort during long runs. "Buttery soft" fabric with multiple pockets holds phone, gels, water bottles securely without bouncing. However, sizing runs small—many recommend sizing up. Fabric is thick, limiting wearability in hot climates. Some experienced chafing and riding up issues.

I love the so much

I love the so much. The fabric is incredible, so slipping or sliding. Holds everything I need for a long run. Will order more.

Love these shorts! Comfy and a great length! Can’t beat the pockets and built in flip belt! I have had a flip belt for the past 5 years and love it! It is the only running belt that stays in place!

Great running shorts!

Great running shorts! I just finished a 5K in the rain and they held up beautifully. The shorts held my phone and Birdie securely. They were almost dry shortly after I went indoors.

Hi Maggie! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your run in our compression shorts. Thanks for sharing your experience, and happy running!

Love the Dune color (wish there were more color options). I was between an S and M so got both but advise going larger. I was concerned about bounce with water bottle in back but not the case. These are great with pockets (wish there was 1 more zippered pocket for races)

Best Purchase Ever

This was unexpectedly one of the best shorts I’ve ever worn during my long run. I did my 20 miles using these shorts and they’re super comfortable. The waistband is true to size and fitted. Not super tight. Felt very secured during the run. Will definitely be buying another pair!

Ride up due to thick fabric and no grippies

These are very comfortable. As a mom of 3, my stomach is not flat, and the thick, high waist is perfect.

These have no grippers on the bottom and instantly give me a wedgie. They are compressive enough and I like the thick fabric, although I think that also contributes to the riding up. The pockets on these are better than the ones on the elite shorts.

These are so close to being perfect. Maybe if they just made them with grippers and in thinner fabric!

Love the quality of this shorts. I’ve been happy with my purchases with FlipBelt. They get sold out quite easily though so if they can make more, that’ll be great!

Love the amount of pockets!

The shorts are cute and I absolutely love the amount of pockets for long runs. Wore them for a marathon and they ended up riding up a lot and the back pocket started to unravel even though I didn’t use it. If they can fit the sewing quality and add silicone to stop them from rising up I’d give them another try!

Perfect fit for a marathon

I have larger thighs which makes finding shorts a challenge. I purchased the 5" length shorts to try for my upcoming marathon and from the first run they were comfortable, fit perfectly and I didn't notice them at all (which is a good thing - no movement in the legs, no shifting or chafing). I can fit an iPhone 16 in the back pocket, 2 gels in each side pocket, plus 2 more in the waist band along with my salt tabs. Everything you need for a marathon. Highly recommend!

Best Short in the Market

I have no words to describe how amazing these shorts are. They fit great, extremely functional and the fabric is fabulous! The only bad thing I have to say is there are not enough colors.

Super soft and comfortable. Downside is that they definitely show sweat.

RUNS SMALL

If you are usually a medium but have a butt or thighs medium will be wayyy to small! They squished my thighs and were way too tight all around. I wished they had included these measurements in there sizing guidelines

So In love with this short

Best quality shorts I have tried so far. They don’t move at all and you can put anything in there. I only wish you guys had more colors.

Pleasantly surprised. Happy with the compression level and comfort yet ‘sturdiness’ of the belt! Held phone and keys and pouch snacks with no issues.

Great quality!

Very surprised by the great material. They are a little thicker like scuba type fabric. They don’t ride up or fall down.

5 inch compression shorts

I want to love these. The belt and pockets are amazing however I have gotten horrible chaffing on the inside back of both legs each time I have worn these. I am going to try the 7 inch and see if I have better luck.

K
Kate

The fabric is amazing! Id describe it as scuba, not neoprene though. Perfect compression, I did size up hecause i didnt want to be squeezed too much. They dont ride up at all and dont slide down either. Already showed all my runner friends!

Great for running. Love the pockets.

Great storage

The fabric is much thicker than I was expecting, and that will limit the wearability in South Carolina somewhat, but the pockets are terrific and the purple color is lovely.
