Review on Women'S Athletic 2-In-1 Running Shorts With Phone Pockets For Gym And Yoga Workouts by Kelly Miller

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Cute, but terrible for running

I originally ordered these shorts in medium but sent them back because the spandex was too loose. I then ordered the small, and they felt okay putting them on but rode up like crazy when I actually ran in them. The spandex came way up my legs until it was all bunched up. I am 5’2” and 120 lbs with a 29.5” waist and 37.5” hips.I bought these specifically to hold my phone, car keys, and dog poop bags. I really don’t prefer the phone arm bands and I’ve had trouble with running belts. I thought the spandex phone pocket in these shorts would be perfect, but since there’s so little material above and below the pocket, my phone bounced up and down on my leg while I ran. Pretty annoying! The back zipper pocket was juuust big enough to hold my car key remote and a couple poop bags and I didn’t feel them while I ran, so no real complaints there. But in addition to the phone bouncing, having a phone in the pocket makes the outer layers of the shorts pop out! My phone is an iPhone XS. See pics. Not a huge deal, just not super flattering.Finally, I discovered with these shorts that I really prefer a lightweight underwear inside my running shorts instead of spandex. My lady bits just need some room to breathe, ya know?Pros:- Super cute (with nothing in phone pocket)- Seems well-made with high quality materialCons:- Medium too big, Small too small- Spandex rides up- Not comfortable to run in- Phone bounces in pocket- Constricting in private area
