So soft

These shorts are so soft, not much support but it does mention that in the description. I was in between sizes and sized up. I could have probably sized down.

I've been looking for the perfect pair of black biker shorts & I finally found them! The material is perfect. However, they do run small. I fit into a medium but wish I ordered a large. Definitely going to be buying more colors!

Comfy, Flattering, Slightly See-Through
5 years ago
I really love these bike shorts! I got a size M, because thats what I wear in their normal leggings and it works perfectly. Very fitted- love how it hugs my waist line. Will have to wear seamless underwear- w/out a doubt. I got the pink pair, really pretty color, looks exactly like it does online. However, I do have to say that they are a tad see through, so I will have to wear skin colored/close to skin colored underwear- no patterns. I'm sure the other colors are dark enough though that it'll be fine to wear whatever colored underwear underneath.

Very Comfy, but...
5 years ago
I love these biker shorts for everyday wear with oversized shirts/sweaters, as well as for low impact workouts or yoga. Very comfortable, lots of stretch and no rolling up on the legs or down on the waist ban. HOWEVER, I will warn that since the material is so stretchy, you may have a constant camel toe so would not recommend wearing with just a crop top/sports bra if you often have this issue. I usually wear a small to medium in bottoms and the medium was just loose enough to be comfortable but not falling off or moving ; could have gotten a small if I wanted these more for exercise

I was a little skeptical of the bike shorts trend at first, but I decided to try these on in-store and was so pleased! These shorts are comfortable, breathable and I'm already excited to wear them this summer. I was concerned about them being too sheer, but that wasn't the case. They'll be perfect for running errands and yoga workouts. #AEReviewSweepsEntry

INCREDIBLY COMFY BUT RUNS SMALL
5 years ago
I'm in between sizes right now but fit into an XS with all AE leggings. I ordered an XS with these and literally laughed when they got delivered. They were SO SMALL the waist opened was as small as one of my thighs. And yes, they're super stretchy, but still couldn't get it on over my butt. This material is the softest and comfiest material though, I'm definitely going to exchange for a S. Just consider sizing up with these, esp if you're in between sizes.

I’m 5’3-5’4 ish and 156lbs. I ordered a large and am not sure if I want to keep them or try to get a bigger pair. They fit but they bunch a little in the crotch area which makes me a self conscious and I think the XL might be too big. I do love the color and the length, though.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Love the shorts, kinda hate the waistband
a year ago
This may be controversial but I really dislike the criss cross waistbands. I’ve tried them in a couple different aerie bottoms over the years and I’m always left disapointed. I never reach for the criss cross leggings I have because they don’t stay up. I don’t know why I thought I’d feel differently this time, but now im firm in my opinion. It might be because I have a short torso, but the sides somehow always come up to my bra and then fold down awkwardly over my stomach. They also tend to fall down in general and I’m constantly having to readjust and pull them up. They also seem to put more pressure on my waist and can get uncomfortable. I love the regular real me high waisted bike shorts, and wish there were more colour options for those ones, but all the colours come in the criss cross waist. I’d rather not have only my belly button and little pooch exposed, bring back the normal high waist! I will say the bottom part of the shorts is really comfortable and fit true to size (I got medium) but I had to return these
No, I do not recommend this product.

Bring back the pocket
a year ago
I ordered these shorts after my husband accidentally bleached my real me crossover pocket bike shorts. These are fine but they need to bring the pocket back. The fabric is thin and doesn't hold as much as other styles which makes this the perfect comfy bike short for lounging around the house, running errands, or low impact workouts. Those activities are much easier to do if you have a phone for your phone and wallet though

Love These But Not Worth It
3 years ago
These are honestly my favourite pair of shorts. I bought them for my pregnancy and wear them frequently. My biggest complaint is that they started to ball inside the thigh very quickly and now after only 2 months the fabric has ripped. I’m disappointed because I followed all the washing instructions and for the price they should last a lot longer.

Style

I like the crossover style in the front, gives an extra detail to it- when using at the gym but also daily outfit.
Unfortunately I don’t like the seam that gives kamel-toe in the front.
And I would also vote for a new pair without the seam at the thighs end- like the offline goals shorts!

These are okay
3 years ago
Don't get me wrong, the fabric is very comfortable and they're good for hot days because they're thin. However, I have a little bit of belly so the waistband is constantly rolling down anytime that I move. I only use them around the house for this reason, though it's still very annoying. If the waistband was more structured I feel like these would be 1000% better.

Not really what I was expecting
4 years ago
I’m actually kind of disappointed with the material I received. I was expecting the bike shorts to have a nice, thick material for $35. But instead, it’s super thin. It does not smooth out my hips, butt, and thighs like most bike shorts do. I haven’t decided if I will return them yet.

I don’t know why there is so much hype around these. The cut is cute but that’s where it ends. They are THIN and pretty see through. I was expecting these to be thicker and and have some compression to them. Definitely not for working out in. The price is too expensive for what they are. Would not recommend. Would not buy again.

Pretty okay

This is the first pair of bike shorts I have to purchased, so I can’t compare these with anything else. However, I took two stars off for 2 reasons: 1) These shorts have a tight waistband that digs in (really not the comfiest thing, especially if you have fat fluffs like me); 2) they are very loud if you don’t have a thigh gap (when you walk all you hear is ‘swish-swoosh, swish-swoosh’). Though they aren’t the comfiest things in my opinion, I feel like they would be great for summer weather!

The waistband is great but the seams aren’t
4 years ago
These shorts are super soft and I love the waistband. They fit everywhere very well, except for the bottom of the leg holes that has a tight, not stretchable seam where if you have large thighs like mine, it kind of makes them look like sausages. I am usually a large in Aerie bottoms so this was a little surprising. I want to try an XL but I don’t know if a size up will make much of a difference in the seam. I was also surprised that they were slightly on the thinner side.

Runs larger than the move bike shorts
5 years ago
I ordered the regular move bike shorts before ordering these and I sized up to prevent thigh squeezing and they fit perfectly, when I ordered these the reviews said size up so I did and they are too big. They aren’t snug around my waist and the legs are looser than I would’ve liked. I would love to see some consistency with American Eagle. Seems like their sizing has been off recently.

Not for me
5 years ago
I've been wanting a pair of biker shorts since I have been seeing them everywhere but these just aren't for me. They hit me on a weird part of my thigh which makes my legs look short.
These also look tiny out of the bag but they have a ton of stretch so the sizing was fine.
Probably going to return honestly...
