Customer Reviews Under Armour UA Authentic 7" Compression Short

Absolutely must haves. If you want to workout or go play volleyball and not be showing it all then these are the bottoms to go with. Material is UA signature. I ordered another pair because I love them. I stand at 6'1" and I'm all legs. So these are a better choice for me. I have a pair of the 4" inseam and they are just that booty short for me. Because I do my squats and I got that back.

I absolutely love these shorts! I am 5'8" about 160lb and I ordered the Medium. They fit well and do not ride up one little bit! I do not resemble a pastry of any sort while wearing them.

After reading reviews, I ordered a size L, but I wish I had stuck with my gut and bought the Medium. I'm usually a size 8, 5'8 about 150 lbs. Since I do have a booty, it seemed like the L would be best, but they're a bit big. The waistband just falls a bit, requiring me to hoist up the waist every so often. But I'd say you can pretty much order your normal size with these; returns are easy if it's too small. It took a couple wears for me to realize they're really too big, and by then it was too late. Otherwise, the legs don't ride up at all, I like the wide waist band because there's 0 muffin top and it gives me the illusion of a flat tummy, and no camel toe either. Love them! And this is the best deal I found anywhere, too.

Freakin' love these shorts! I feel like I'm naked wearing them! I have an older pair of Under Armour shorts similar to these except the thick, soft waistband is a huge improvement, as is the reinforcement around the inner thigh and crotch area. No camel toe! If you're a strong athletic girl with thicky thick thighs, these will keep you covered and comfortable and they'll make your ass look even more amazing than it already is! And I love how lightweight they are and super quick drying. I'm taking 2 pairs of these plus a pair of the 4" with the pink waistband on a 3 1/2 week camping trip and plan on handwashing them and rotating the 3 pairs. So psyched, I'm really a big fan of this product! It'll be great for biking, running, and crossfit also. So comfy!

Great shorts. Ordered a size small at first I'm 135 lbs and they were too tight so I went back and ordered a medium which fit perfect. They do ride up slightly but not as bad as others I have tried. They kept me dry during my strength training exercise and my 5 k treadmill run. Worth the buy.

I wear these under dresses to work all summer long! Way better than Spanx - they don't ride up or make me feel squished, but hug everything in and prevent my legs from sticking together. I'm buying more pairs as I won't wear a dress with bare legs without these ever again!

These shorts are awesome. I run in a very humid climate and have been struggling to find shorts that won't chafe or ride up. Went for a seven-mile run in the heat and I couldn't be happier with how these shorts held up. I recommend them to any runner in any weather!

I ended up buying three pairs of these shorts. They are perfect for spin class, especially since the legs do not ride up at all. I am 5'9", 145 pounds and I always have to buy Large in Under Armour. The waist band is ridiculously large, I am not sure why. That would be my one request of style change. But my shirt covers it. So that is not a problem.

My new favorite running shorts! The super-comfy waistband stays put and doesn't cut into my belly. The legs don't ride up, and the length is perfect--no tugging and no chafing! Enough compression to smooth out the lumps and flatter my booty. Getting ready to order another pair!

These shorts are comfortable and run true to size. I recommend them.

Awesome! I am ordering another pair.

I usually wear a 6 (mostly) and thought the 4-6 size would work but it was too tight. Love the feel of the fabric - exchanging for larger size.

I love these! They stay put while running and prevent chub rub for my thick thighs. I hate regular running shorts as they ride up, but I live in Hawaii so running in tights is out of the question. These are perfect and don't look too dorky with the longer inseam. I wear a size 10 and the large works well for me. I've had them for about 7 months now and wear them a few times a week and they are holding up great! I had wash between runs and they dry quickly, which is another plus.

I liked these compression shorts. They faired out pretty well for me. They ran ever so slightly large, but it was not too big of a deal. They serve their purpose well.

These are great. I wear them for my spinning class... I got the XS and I'm 5'4" 110 lbs...maybe more now that most of my flab has been replaced by muscle? I don't think they're see-through, but to be honest I haven't done the bendover test. I guess I should... but nobody cycles behind me and I always wear black cheeky briefs under them, so I don't think it really matters either way. They don't ride up at all, which is essential for cycling. Going to get another pair and maybe even try the 4" ones now that my glutes and quads are toned from all the squatting and cycling. What?

A little longer than I thought, but I found them to be perfect for running since I don't have to fuss with them at all --they stay in place well and are pretty comfortable for a compression style.

These shorts are great to wear beneath running shorts that I would deem "too short" to wear otherwise. They also (miraculously) prevent shorts that creep up from doing so. Best buy ever and they wash like a dream (cold water/delicate/hang to dry)!

Best running shorts ever! They stay in place even on long runs. No riding up and no riding down. I am 5'1 135 pounds and the med fits great! Love ordering from Zappos, super fast delivery!

I ordered these shorts to go under skirts. They work great that way. I had to size up one size just because they were too tight in my thighs. They are quite comfortable now though!

I love these shorts! They are the only running bottoms I've been able to find that don't have a seam running straight down the crotch. No camel toe! The perfect amount of compression too, and super comfy. Out of the three pair I bought, one is a little loose at the hips, but I assume it was just a one-off defect (for the record, that pair did not come from Zappos). The others are perfect and stay in place. I'm 5'8" and 140 pounds, and the medium fits great.

These shorts expand a little bit both in length and girth, and fit very closely. (They are comfortable, nonetheless.) For reference, I am 5'5" and ^ 135 pounds.

First, I'll note that I did NOT buy these for althetic activities. I bought them to wear under skirts and dresses in place of uncomfortable fat squishing undergarments meant to hide my body's features. I simply wanted lightweight, comfortable, breathable shorts that would make wearing skirts and dresses more carefree. (I'm about 6'1" and sometimes feel uncomfortable in shorter skirts and dresses since everything is automatically shorter on me.) The 7" length worked out perfectly for me and they're so comfortable I wore them the same day they arrived. It was in the 80s that day but I didn't get hot or sweaty in them. I feel the quality and price are both fantastic, and with my casual use of them I believe they'll last a long time. I'm even considering buying the 5" pair to wear under certain clothing.

Love these shorts! I'm 5'9" and they are the perfect length for me; they hit about mid thigh and don't ride up at all. I have a thick middle and got a size L, which is plenty big. The wide waistband is super comfortable and gives me no muffin top whatsoever. I would definitely buy more of these if they came in other colors. Great for spin class - my muscular thighs don't get chafed on the bike seat.

These are great shorts! They really do wick away moisture and keep everything tucked in. I'm 5'10", and they make sure my thighs don't rub together. I think the sizing is spot on.
