    Comments about ID Elite Short:

    I love these shorts.

    However, the BLUE are definitely sized a full size too small, and I am not someone who wears my shorts loose. They pull across the front in a very unflattering way, but going a size up will fix the problem. (I have the nightlife in my regular size, but I got them 2 years ago so I don't know if the fit on them changed)

      Comments about ID Elite Short:

      These shorts are wonderful! I bought both colors! I knew they would be a little shorter than what I was used to. I wanted a pair of shorts that were short though. O my gosh! I went out and ran 7 miles in them! They were so comfortable. I felt like I was running in my underwear! (Obviously not...lol). These cover me appropriately but are very liberating!

      Comments about ID Elite Short:

      My whole closet is filled with size 12, and all those clothes have a comfortable fit, some even a bit wide. But this L was certainly not size 12 or 14. I had to change it XL.
      But the material and quality looked great, so in the right size I'll run in it with pleasure no doubt.

      Comments about ID Elite Short:

      I had a bigger crush on these shorts until I started running distance in them to be honest. If you are prone to chaffing on the thighs than maybe these shorts aren't for you. I love them for short runs but anything over an hour and they almost exacerbate the rubbing issue. They are my favorite shorts for anything else though!

        Great shorts for racing. They are really comfortable and they look great too. I use these for all my races from the 5k to the marathon. I particularly like them for the marathon because of the pockets for gels. I can easily carry 4 gels and haven't lost one yet.

            I have 3 pairs of these shorts and I take the draw string out so it will sit flat. These are so comfortable that sometimes I wonder if I'm wearing shorts at all. The pockets are nice for the gels during marathons.

              These are my go to marathon shorts. The best part is the little side pockets which are perfect for gel packs on those long days. They are comfortable and light weight.
