Review on 🏃 Functional and Stylish: Fulbelle Womens Double Layer Athletic Shorts with Pockets - Enhanced Elastic Waist for Running by Paul Lee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

SUPER SOFT SHORTS - MORE COLORS NEEDED

I had to take 5 of these shorts right out of the box - they are so soft I feel like I'm wearing pajama shorts. I bought them for running and walking. Here is my summary rating of these shorts: 1) Softness and comfort - 5 stars! Soft, stretchy, comfortable with my imperfect body. 2) Flattering - 2-3 stars. The reason for the imperfect body is my stomach, the shorts seem to accentuate it from the front, but on the other hand, my dog is difficult to hide. I also attached photos. The overall look of the shorts is neat with a geo pattern and solid black side cutouts. Makes him look slim although my dog does his best to show off. The front pockets are surprisingly deeper and wider than I expected. My Moto Droid Z3 (6-1/2″ x 3-1/2″) fit in my bag with no issues, but I would never run it there - too much room to bounce while running. But ideal if you want to hold your phone or other larger items while lounging or walking. The inner lining is very soft polyester, but it was larger than expected. The attached photo shows how to see through. But based on that, I wouldn't go with the shorts. It's nice to have a lining that's snug enough without being tight so you don't expose anything in the shorts when you sit. The length of the shorts is high at the top of the thighs. This can be a problem when my hips try to keep in close contact with each other while walking. The material tends to chafe more than expected, but based on this early assessment (only run/walk twice) there was no chafing due to the softness of the fabric. In terms of size, they fit true to size. I'm 5ft 9in, 162lbs and usually wear large ones. I ordered these plus size shorts and they fit as expected. Overall I would recommend these shorts for their comfort, pocketability and overall softness!
