adidasOriginals Women's Parma 16 Shorts

These shorts appear to be kind of transparent when you hold them up to the light, but when you put them on and wear them, they are completely solid. You cannot see anything thru them. But if you will have really bad show thru pantylines if your shorts are too tight. Best advice is to buy them larger than you usually wear. But these shorts feel like they are made of nylon canvas, kind of a rough plastic texture to them, and they are kind of stiff to the touch.

I purchased these shorts when they were on sale not really knowing if I would like them. Turns out, I love them! They are so comfortable. Fit great! True tosize. I wear an x-small and they fit perfectly. The fabric is light weight and you it feels like you are wearing nothing. When you look at the shorts they look like they are see through but when you put them on you can’t see through them at all! I would definitely recommend buying these shorts.

I sure hope you read the reviews before buying them as I haven't. They are comfortable, light, but see-through. If you need something breathable this will be perfect, but was too breathable for me

These are my go-to exercise or hanging out shorts in hot weather. They are very thin and sheer, but I have the black andthe sheerness is not an issue for me.I'm 5'5, 130 lbs, thin waist, but larger butt and thighs and the medium fits perfectly. They're short, but still offer good coverage, and they don't cling. They sit at natural waist. I love these and have two black pair!

★★★☆☆The adidas Women’s Parma 16 Shorts are decent in terms of fit and comfort, but the price just keeps going up, which makes them less appealing. While they’re good for activewear and look stylish, I’m not sure they justify the rising cost. There are other options at a better value that provide similar quality.

I bought a pair of these shorts in navy blue two years ago, and while they were slightly sheer/see-through, they were fine once on. I just ordered a new pair (once again in navy blue), and I was shocked by how much more sheer and see-through the material was! I will have to return these. I still have the old shorts, and there is a noticeable difference. Also, I ordered a medium both times, and this second pair is noticeably larger in the waist.

These are comfortable & true to size; however, be aware they are somewhat see through.

Although the shorts are nice they are very shear material. Great to wear over bathing suit or around the house. I wouldn't wear in public because of shear see through material, but I use them at the pool over my bathing suit.
