Love the fit of these shorts as they are perfect for working out and lounging. I'm comfortable in them, but I don't feel like they're too short or too tight. Like many other reviewers who bought white, I have to complain about how thin the fabric is. Unfortunately, wearing them will tell any passer-by what underwear you're wearing, if any, so be sure to dress appropriately. I personally recommend pairing them with white compression shorts to avoid unwanted visible lines.
