These are comfy and great for everyday walking and exercise. Cell phone carrys great in pocketFits well. Moderate coverage and side pockets for phone and key.Cute but no air circulation, so they kind of defeat the purpose of wearing shorts while exercisingI'm 5'2" 135 lbs, 31 inch waist.I thought I had ordered Medium but received Extra Small. It arrived with a cute thank you gift: a drawstring bag. But the shorts were way too small so I sent everything back: shorts, bag and all.I reordered the Medium and received Medium. No thank you gift included this time (I sent it back the first time so it's not like I still had one). But again the shorts were too small. They felt tight and uncomfortable around my legs. So I sent the shorts back again. At this point I was irritated because reviews said these are true to size and I normally wear Medium.I tried one more time. I was tired of them not fitting so I skipped a size and ordered the Extra Large. Received Extra Large, again no thank you gift included (which is kind of annoying since in the reviews you see someone received two. But whatever.) I tried on the shorts. They mostly fit. The legs feel right but the waist feels unproportionate. It's a little big. If only they had a drawstring in the waist. Maybe the Large would have been perfect but I'm done trying. I'll just keep the Extra Large even though I normally fit comfortably in Medium.So the sizing isn't amazing but other than that, these shorts seem pretty good. The material feels nice and breathable. They seem well made. Stretchy. Good for exercise. There's a pocket on each side, large enough to fit a smartphone with an otterbox case on. The pockets are stretchy too so you could fit a small water bottle in your pocket if you really wanted. They ride up a little bit, which is why I selected the long shorts. They're a few inches above the knee. So even though they don't fit as desired, I think these will be decent bike shorts. So try to guess your best size the first time to save some hassle and you might get a thank you gift as well.I have these in two other colors so I knew I would like these. Very well mad and side pockets very easy to access.I bought the large knee length for every day running around. Pockets are great & the shorts are very comfortable. I'm going to get a pair of the shorter length also.Like the fact that the pockets are on the side and cell phone fits perfectly. Don't like putting phone in back pocket as I see so many people do.Love these shorts. Both my sister and I have purchased multiple pairs in different colors. They do not ride up. Love they have pockets.
