Love!

3 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love them so much that this us my third pair. They are my summer comfortable shorts that I use to run errands, go to the gym, and just recently wore are Disney in 90 degrees weather all day. They are comfortable and the perfect length.

Runs a full size small but otherwise excellent

1 year ago

I got these shorts off the clearance rack in store so I was able to try on Large and XL. The large (my usual size 90 percent of the time) did not even slip over my hips! The XL fit like a large. Not exaggerating. On the bright side, they are beautifully fitted near the body without too much compression. The fabric is thick enough that I might have the option of undies if I so choose. On hikes I often prefer to skip my usual leggings for something less skin hugging. These shorts are like relaxed leggings. Although I see in the product photos the models are wearing them pretty tight. They seem to be on sale cheaper online than I paid in store but the quality is high and I think they will be great for hiking since they are slim enough to layer yet thicker and less revealing than typical legging bike shorts.

Just no

Not true to size, not terribly flattering and not very comfortable. Definitely not up to typical north face standards. Bought for hiking but can’t even imagine wearing these on the trail.

Absolute favorite hiking shorts

1 year ago

BEST HIKING SHORTS EVER. I purchased my first pair 2 years ago and they were my favorite. Unfortunately tore them beyond repair on a root during a mud run and I grabbed another pair when they went on sale. They are snug to get on but once over your hips they fit like a glove. they don't ride up like normal biker shorts when hiking/scrambling on high peaks, and they are super flattering. they hold up to abrasion very well and are compression so if you dont like them tight size up. do yourself a favor and grab 2 pairs

Athletic Fit!

1 year ago

I love the fit of North Face workout pants! I’ve got big, strong thighs & these are the only tight pants that don’t squeeze a dent at the leg while still fitting in the waist. A joy to workout in whether I’m lifting weights, spinning or taking a class.

Dune Sky Shorts Saved the Day!

2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's usually hard to find quality plus-size shorts that fit me well, but these Dune Sky 9" went beyond the call of duty. My day at the Kern River was saved by the ability of these shorts to take a lickin' and keep on tickin'! These shorts allowed for me to hike around the area, (fall!) into the Kern River, and still give me a comfortable feel for the entire days excursion with 0% thigh chafe and 100% style. 10/10 would recommend these shorts to anyone in need!

Favorite walking/running/biking shorts! love the pockets!

2 years ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've owned and worn these shorts for 2 season now and they still hold their shape. there are two snug side pockets and one on the back waist, all hold a cell phone and make my walks/runs/biking more enjoyable. They are good support and I like the higher waist. I recommend them to everyone, I love them that much. I also own the longer 7/8 tights and use them in the fall/winter. The 7/8 tights are good for colder weather 30 degrees and warmer. Highly recommend!
