    Perfect running shorts for anyone who has muscular thighs. Most shorts that fit my waist end up squeezing my thighs or just not fitting right so I have to size up. Don't have that issue with these at all.

    These shorts are lightweight and super comfortable, thus a great material for summer outdoor runs.

    I have a curvy figure and so these kept sliding up the few inches to the narrowest part of my waist while running, which, to be fair, happens a lot with running shorts. But it means I'm constantly adjusting and self-conscious, since they're already quite short. I'm still searching for the perfect pair that won't do this, and unfortunately these weren't it. I love them when I'm not running. :)

    These shorts are the best for a muscular build. I struggle to find shorts that have enough thigh room while still fitting tightly on my waist, but these are absolutely perfect for just that. Not to mention they're super cute!

    Loveeee these shorts. I recently wore these on a super sweaty hike and they were perfect. I love how they sit high on the waist. I’m 5’7” 140 lbs with an athletic build and I ordered a Medium. Looking forward to purchasing more from OV.

    I have been desperately searching for a pair of running shorts that don't ride up on the legs, and I think I have found my dream pair. They are nice and loose around the thighs-- and I have bigger thighs. I am so excited to order more colors & live in these for the summer.
