    I really like this product. I like the way it compresses everything and helps with my longer runs. The size was true to standard.

    I love them! I was constantly struggling with IT band and hip flexor issues on my long runs. Now that I have the shorts they keep the lactic acid buildup and fatigue at bay. I have really noticed a difference in how I feel on my runs, and more importantly the recovery time needed after my long runs is drastically shorter!

    Comfortable! I've been running for 7 years and these are by far the best shorts I own! I just had my 4th baby this past January and these shorts give me the support I need, especially in the belly area!

    Love them. Wish list is that they would be slightly shorter, but all in all they were exactly what I expected/needed. Appreciated the feedback on sizing. I fell between sizes and went with the larger size. Glad I did.

    I bought these to train for and run my first half marathon. I bought this brand because my husband uses these for his marathon training. I definitely felt the support these provided on my quads and core, especially for those longer runs. I also bought the pro version in the 3/4 length because it has knee support which I started to feel I wanted after about 9 miles and/or on uneven terrain. I like these shorts for runs up to 8 miles or so on level terrain. So far, they have worn and washed well but you have to be sure not to put them in the dryer.

    This shorts have been great, even on hot summer days. I have the Stabilyx tights, which I like a little better. I think the Pro may be more like the tights. I am a size 6 and bought the medium, and they are tight enough (but not too tight around the stomach, which is good).

    Brands I'd also recommend: Moving Comfort and Brooks clothing

    Great shorts that do what they're supposed to do. I'm very petite, 5'1 and normally a 0/2P. The XS fits like it should. The Small would've been too big. I rate comfort at 4 stars just because that's the nature of these shorts and they're tight, but not uncomfortable.

    These are so skin tight that the size that I was well within on their sizing chart could barely be pulled on. I went with a larger size and wore them almost all the time over the course of a year. From the super-tightness, I developed a cyst which the doctor confirmed is caused by too tight elastic.
