Reviews: Nike Swift Women's High-Waisted 10cm (approx.) Tight Running Shorts with Pockets. Nike.com

Rated 5 out of 5

Love these!

I was a bit hesitant to order these due to many reviewers saying they ride up, but I love the Nike Swift leggings so much i decided to give them a try. They are great. I sized up to a medium because the waist runs a bit small on these. They stayed in place and my phone didn’t bounce in the pocket. They are comfortable and just feel great on. I would love to see a version of this short in a longer inseam as well! Maybe a 6 or 7” inseam.

Ride up instantly, chaffing

I was hoping that in a 5” length these shorts would prevent thigh chaffing. Unfortunately they ride up instantly—well before the running starts. I should have just gone for the 3” and just used body glide to avoid 2” of material bunched up—so not comfortable.

ALMOST good. How about a redo?

I’ve put several miles in these so this is a fair review.
What I liked: 1) they’re not insanely high waisted, a hard thing to find these days; 2) pockets are great, and 3) material feels nice.
What I did NOT enjoy: the pant legs don’t stay put. Maybe if I had beefy running legs they would stay put, or if I had less of a gut and could fit in an XS (I’m 127lb and 5’ 5”).
Will be returning.

Doesn’t prevent chafing

I have thick thighs and have bought 1 pair of running shorts that were perfect. I think Nike discontinued them so I searched for their next best option. Given that these are running shorts and longer length I assumed they’d be perfect I was wrong. They roll up so much the chafing was instantly. Ima medium in all my Nike bottoms and they fit well all around so I think it’s certainly the material…

Size up

Size medium does not fit like and 8-10 these fit more like a 4. Sizing way off. Shorts ride up too much making it uncomfortable to wear.

Not ideal.

Look great, but they do rise up whilst running, which isn’t great for running shorts. Not really fit for purpose.
