Okay, so I'm a 5'3 thick queen with some serious muscle (thanks, squats!) and these XL shorts FIT. The colors? Spot on to the pics - no catfish situation here.

The material is stupid soft, like 'why-are-my-workout-clothes-this-comfy' level. They hug my thighs a bit but in that good 'I actually look snatched' way. POCKETS! Though fair warning - the fabric's slippery so maybe don't stash your AirPods in there mid-burpee.

Used them for weight training and they held up great. Haven't tried running yet but they passed the squat test with flying colors (literally, I got the yellow pair). For the price? 10/10 would buy again.

PS - If you're between sizes, size up for that perfect loose-but-not-baggy fit. These shorts are my new gym uniform!
