Blooming Jelly Women's Athletic Running Shorts Crossover Gym Workout Shorts

I really love these shorts. I am 4’11 and while petite I have a small momma belly from csection. I love these shorts bc the waits hits high and feel sturdy! Material is comfortable and soft. POCKeTS are perfection! Hold phone and keys! Just perfect! I like how the leg lays. Not a high slit. The underwear under the top layer is a little big and sits oddly but not a deep breaker at all! Workout friendly! The fabric offers a nice weight. I will purchase more just have to choose color! Black was a great staple.

These are great! I love the waistline, it is very flattering and the material is stretchy and not too tight or loose. I love how the back is slightly longer, makes me even more comfortable. These are a great athletic material, the perfect thickness. The zippered pockets are nice to have. I would definitely buy again! For reference, I am 120 lbs, 26 in waist, and the XS fits perfectly.

I am sometimes in between sizes so I ordered a large and an extra large in the shorts. It was kind of disappointing because the extra large were huge and super unflattering. The large was a tad bit smaller than I would like, they seemed closer to a medium. So the size difference in between those two is crazy. I will say the tummy control/waist is very complementary especially if you have a mommy tummy like me. I believe I’m going to keep the large because I feel like they will be a good lightweight pair of shorts to wear to my daughter’s softball games this summer. I have the large on in the photo.

As a girly pop with thick thighs these shorts are an absolute must buy! The main thing I hate about running shorts is that they are either too tight around my thighs or they ride up into short shorts. These DO NOT do that. And the crossover stretchy waist band is so nice and comfortable. I have already purchased three pairs of these shorts and I have every intention to buy more. ALSO! They have zip up pockets!!!! Literally I cannot explain how much I love these shorts.

I really wanted to absolutely love these shorts. On paper, they have everything I look for in gym wear: a trendy crossover waistband, a flattering cut, and a built-in liner. While they look amazing when you first put them on in front of the mirror, their performance in the gym leaves a bit to be used. First, the positives. The crossover high-waisted design is incredibly flattering and holds you in without digging into your stomach. The fabric itself is lightweight, breathable, and feels high-quality—it handles sweat well and dries quickly. They also have a great casual athleisure look, making them perfect for running errands, lounging around the house, or just walking the dog. The 3-star rating comes down to how these perform when you actually start moving. These are marketed as workout and running shorts, but the moment I start jogging on the treadmill or doing squats, the outer fabric immediately begins to ride up. Within a few minutes of active movement, the legs bunch up right into the crease of my thighs. I found myself constantly pulling them down between sets, which is incredibly frustrating when you're trying to focus on a workout. If you have any kind of thickness to your thighs, the fabric just doesn't want to stay put. The built-in liner helps keep you covered so you aren't completely exposed, but having the outer shell bunch up constantly ruins the silhouette and causes some minor chafing. If you are buying these strictly for aesthetic purposes, light walking, or casual wear, they are easily a 5-star pair of shorts because they look fantastic. However, if you are looking for reliable athletic shorts for intense running, lifting, or HIIT workouts, the constant riding up makes them pretty impractical. They are decent, but definitely not my go-to for leg day.

These shorts changed my life. I’m not even joking. I live in Central California where it’s triple digits all summer and I work outside, these allow me to hop in the pool, hop out and not change and get work done outside while still looking athletic and semi professional, as they are not tight not too short, not too long, and yet still managed to be flattering. Also, the waistband doesn’t leave awkward marks on your stomach so you can wear them over swimsuit bottoms to the beach! Literally recommend them to every outdoorsy Girl I know.

Maybe these don't "run big," but they are generously cut. I'm 5'10 185lbs. I buy L or XL, 12/14. The sizing chart on this listing suggested an XL would be best (I'm apple shaped and really don't want the waist to pinch). The XL was fine in the waist with extra room, but the flowing fabric around the hips was just too much. I exchanged for an L and love them. The waistband is a delight! Soft flexible, not pinching, no muffin top. Room to wear up at/above belly button but forgiving enough to sit mid-rise too. The built-in liner keeps the shorts in place (I wear panties under as well). The cut gives ample coverage to the back & outside of my thighs, but the tulip sculpting is very flattering. I chose the black with white trim and couldn't be happier.

I love these shorts! So much that I’ve bought them in three different colors and will probably purchase more. So comfortable and they have pockets. I like the length and feel like they are flattering on my body.
