These are so comfortable! I can work out, run, or just wear these around the house. I love that they are very high waisted, which was the top thing I was trying to find in gym shorts. They are high enough I can wear a shorter top and it will meet the top of the waist, and they are still a comfortable length. I did size up one size from a small to a medium to make sure the waist would be higher on me. I’m 5’6.
