Nike Pro Sculpt "Keely Hodgkinson"

As a former college soccer player and current postpartum first time Mom, this length is where it’s at for thicker thighs! Where I made a mistake is choosing the larger size when on the fence - specifically for working out. Don’t get me wrong, I love the fit of the size with a bigger shirt and lounging. BUT, I believe a snugger fit would have kept everything where it should be instead of just sitting on my new Mom pooch (lumpy). I’d share a picture of said pooch, but my confidence isn’t quite recovered from my body evolution. I think if you’re looking for a true HIIT or running short, don’t go up or choose the conservative size based on the chart. It’s forgiving if you’re wanting snug. Length 5 out of 5 stars, no notes. I love the wider waist band, and I didn’t have any issues with riding up even with a slightly loose fit. I just didn’t feel like it did anything for my jiggly bits during intense movement. I don’t love a strong logo on an apparel item, but I appreciate the “there but not there” approach by using the same color in different finishes IF the brand name is on the clothes - referencing the front thigh area. Overall, a great, almost perfect fit and a good aesthetic design. It could easily be YOUR perfect short based on personal preference.

These training shorts are a nice mix of comfort, style and versatility. They have the sweat-wicking material of the classic Nike Pro gear which makes it great for any gym workout. They we comfortable and held up for my walks and rebounding workouts. I wore them to a Pilates reformer class and appreciated the support provided by the high waistband without feeling like it was too tight or restricting. The fit is true to size and the monochromatic stripes along the sides provide a slight slimming effect. The fabric moves with the body well and hugs in all the right places. I feel that the 5” inseam is perfect for providing a bit of modesty without impacting freedom of movement. The one reason for knocking the shorts down one star was the fact that they do tend to ride up in the leg length with movements like squats and running. But overall, these are a great choice for a variety of training disciplines.

I am an avid kickboxer and need to run when in fight camp. I love to wear spandex shorts when participating in both activities and I found the Nike Pro Sculpt Women's Dri-FIT High-Waisted 5" Shorts to be comfortable! These shorts were true to size and fit me like a glove. I really liked the length of these shorts; they were the perfect length for the activities I wore them for. I found that they did not ride up during my runs and they stayed put when kickboxing. They were not see through either which is a huge plus for activewear!!! I loved the wide waistband however I felt like it ‘snatched’ my stomach but made my lower belly bulge out below it. Overall, I’ve added these to my rotation of activewear!
