Women's R-Gear High-Speed Compression 6" Short

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

First, I almost never wear shorts because I have full thighs and shorts generally creep and bunch up or just look unflattering. The length on these shorts is nice, modest but not ridiculous. I wore them around the house for a bit to see if they would creep up and they seemed okay, but when I wore them for a short run today they did ride up a bit (though not awfully). Also, the fabric does not qualify as compression in my book, it fits snugly but definite not supportive to me. They'll be added to my rotation for very hot days instead of capris, but they still aren't quite perfect if you're "curvy".

I am definetely a woman who "needs some extra coverage!" Haha, but I just look at it as more to love! However, sometimes you just feel like compressing things a little. That's why these Women's RRS Velocity 6" Compression shorts are right up my alley! Whenever I wear them, things feel way more compact. And you should see the stares! For all those "large and in charge" women out there who occasionally feel the need to compress, I highly recommend these!

I love these shorts. I ran over 7 miles in them with no chaffing! They are a nice length on my leg and I like the plain black color. Easy to mix and match shirts to go with. I usually wear a size medium running shorts (in other brands) and that is what I ordered here and they fit perfectly. The side pocket does not seem overly useful but I can go without a pocket most of the time. I also ordered the newer version of this short (with the yellow stripe) and that one didn't fit as snugly & it seemed to be 3/4" shorter in the leg. The back pocket was nicer and bigger so IF you really NEED the nice pocket I would recommend that one instead. But I prefer this one! I am returning the one with the yellow stripe.

I am a 50 something women that bought these for a Warrior dash, so I was covered when I got all wet and muddy. They fit well and performed the way I wanted. Kept me covered and comfortable. I will wear these running in the future and will purchase more

I originally purchased this short over the winter to wear as an additional layer under pants for my cold weather runs. I am ordering another pair b/c it has quickly become my favorite pair of shorts to wear alone. It stays exactly where it is supposed to without riding up and looks and feels fantastic!! Love that I have more color choices!!!

I have trouble wearing shorts and this pair actually fits well. Usually shorts start to creep up as I run but these stay in place! I would absolutely recommend them!

Was looking for some compression shorts for running...and love these. I'm likely going to purchase another pair...and love that there's a zipper pocket

This is a great pair of shorts for running and light biking. Comfortable, good fit and looks good.

I bought it for working out and spin class. It's nice to have shorts in a variety of lengths. After I received mine, I bought more for my family members. I thought they'd love the fit, too.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These are the best shorts! I now own three pairs, and they are the only shorts I wear to run in. The inseam is the perfect length so that it hits in a spot on my leg that is both comfortable and flattering. I have not had any problems with them riding up like I have had with other shorts in the past.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I love these shorts. My thighs are my biggest part, so I can't wear baggier shorts as they ride up. These do not. I am on my 2nd size (had to buy smaller as I lost weight).

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

My #1 priority for running shorts is that it has to have at least one pocket that is big enough to carry an iPhone. I was floored to find a compression short that met this criteria. Not only that, but it is actually located in a convienient spot. Oh yeah, they are also super comfortable. I originally bought these to wear under my running pants in the winter to help keep my thighs warm but have used them on there own a few times during this mild fall here in Eastern PA. These must have been designed by a woman!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I've been looking for shorts or a skort for the past few years that actually stays down and covers my thighs so I don't get that awful [*] rub. I've tried others, many others. But this is the first one that I'll actually buy again! I ran 7 miles today (the longest yet in these shorts) and I didn't need to bend down and pull them down at all! I'm getting ready for a third marathon and I will be buying more of these

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

Despite logging a marathoner's miles, I have a very curvy lower half. This is the most comfortable pair of shorts I've ever found, for a few reasons. First, no pinching at the waist or hem - the elastic lies flat (even if your stomach isn't). They ride up a teeny bit on the leg, but otherwise stay put. They're long enough to help stop thigh chafe. They're also long enough to prevent you from feeling scandalous while running around in compression shorts. The pocket is serviceable for compression shorts - you can easily carry ID or some cash for a post-run pit stop...maybe also a single car or house key. These have made me a believer and they're now my go-to shorts for speedwork, long runs, and racing.

These shorts are perfect for running - not too tight, but not too loose! Great for those of use whose upper thighs touch :)

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These shorts are the best thing ever for running! I run 60-70 miles each week. Wearing these compression shorts is like running with just an extra layer of skin between you and the elements. You may sweat, but the fabric doesn't show sweat marks. The compression holds your legs "in" and they don't rub against each other at all. The stomach is equally held tightly, but comfortably, in place. Additionally, the side zipper is a great place to put your car key. These shorts are fantastic!

I really like the feel of this material, but I didn't get the right size. I normally wear a Large in running bottoms and ordered the same for these. I found they were way too loose for 'compression' shorts! I think they would have been great in the right size, but I will have to return them. I recommend ordering a size smaller than you usually order, as they are supposed to feel tight! I look forward to trying them out in a Medium!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I love the fit, however next time I would go a size smaller. I think with my weight lose I misjudged my true size. I do love that the shorts cover my "mom belly", I didn't feel any jiggle when running, I was VERY comfrotable.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I just wore this in my very first half marathon. I am sooo glad i bought them. Fit very well, very comfortable, and even look good. I am a little curvy and felt very confident in these. Definitely going to buy a couple more pairs!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These are almost perfect. They could use a little more compression in the thighs because they do right up just a little.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I've worn these shorts for years....love them, until this time. With my last order in Aug 2009, I noticed they've changed the seeming on these shorts. More seems---more scratchy seems. I've never gotten abrasions before and it's all right along the new seams.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These are the best running shorts ever... especially if you're like me and have a bit of an issue with other shorts riding up or thighs rubbing together. They are the perfect length and they stay in place while running. I'm sooo sad that they're no longer selling my size. Please, please, PLEASE don't discontinue them!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I workout 5-6 times a week, running, weight training and t-25 workouts, these shorts are great for every type of workout. They provide support and stay in place while working out. I own 5 pair, they are the only short I use. I am 5'5 135 pounds and I wear the medium.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These are great shorts.
I wore these in the USMC Marathon and they were perfect.
They stayed in place, didn't ride up and no chaffing.
My only beef with these shorts is the drawstring is too short...I have to put these shorts on VERY carefully or the draw string retreats into the waist band.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I'm about 5'3" with narrow hips and muscular legs, so shorts riding up when I'm running is a constant problem for me. I wore a size small in these the other day for a 6.5 miler and they didn't move once. They even stayed put during a CrossFit workout with lots of box jumps and heavy lifts.

While the material is not exactly quick-drying (I live in a very humid climate), I didn't feel like the shorts were weighing me down with my own sweat. I will definitely be buying additional pairs of these and would love to see some more colors!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I had the 8" style but wanted something shorter for summer. I have larger thighs and have had other compression shorts in a shorter length that rode up to my hip crease which is uncomfortable. My 8" shorts didn't ride up so I thought I'd give these 6" ones a try.

I CrossFit 4 times a week and am a runner. I have used these shorts in both situation and am very pleased. In fact when running I swore the shorts felt like they were riding up but when I check they hadn't. Phantom ride ups I guess.

The only problem is that now that I found they worked, my size is out of stock. Please get more size Large and some fun colors too!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I bought these shorts based on the good reviews. I have been looking for a solid pair of compression shorts that are not booty shorts or super tight. They are a good length and sit higher on the waist, which I like. I wouldn't really call these true compression shorts though - the material is pretty loose. They do move and come up when I run. I thought these would be a good short for summer running to keep things in place, but they are so not breathable that I have a hard time wearing these in hot weather. The logo on the front left is also already coming off and I've only owned them a few weeks. I find the pocket's placement really odd so will probably never use. I do really like these for biking, though.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

These are my faorite shorts. I have 4 pairs and wear these almost exclusively for my serious (esp. long) runs. The zip pocket hides keys or credit card/ID/cash comfortably. And, they do not ride up at all. I was hoping to buy another pair today and I sm so sad that you are out of the medium size. I hope you get more in stock soon!

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I bought a pair of RRS compression shorts a few years ago. I run 4-5 days per week year round. That first pair of shorts is still part of my gear and they have held up wonderfully through many hours of running and many washes! This most recent purchase of another pair of compression shorts are even better quality! Comfortable, no rubbing/chafing, and supportive fit. The hidden pocket is also a nice feature. I plan to buy additional pairs of these shorts! I have had Nike and Under Armor Compression shorts and RRS brand is bar far the best and reasonably priced.

Comments about R-Gear Womens Road Runner Sports High-Speed Compression 6" Fitted Shorts:

I needed a compression short that was thin enough for Texas heat but not too thin. After reading all of the reviews, I was sold! I wish I would have discovered these years ago! Best. Compression. Short. Ever! These work well under my running shorts to avoid the dreaded thigh rub. I am 5'4 and wear a size 8 and ordered the medium. I'm still in awe at how soft they feel and they don't squeeze me like a boa constricter. I can't say enough about these and will be buying another pair soon. Bought these for the upcoming 2014 Hood to Coast Relay in Oregon.
