These shorts are really comfortable! for assistive exercise by going down a size you have one Pocket on each side (2 in total) for your phone, MP3 player, etc. Remember, they DO NOT have a built in fly, so you'll have to "bypass" this, but since they don't have a visible fly, you can wear as outerwear during workouts and don't look like you're running in your underwear. They stretch in ALL directions so you can move freely despite compression. They also have a nice wide belt. Best of all, it fits close-fitting and showing off your curves of the back and hips - the ladies in your yoga class will appreciate you even more I slip the outerwear on and off easily to enjoy the freedom of movement without snagging. If you are looking for compression shorts look no further - this is quality and at this price you will be very satisfied.
