Best shorts, more colours!
Best shorts I have ever owned! I wear them all the time! I love the 5" length! More colour options. All the fun colours are always in the shorter lengths.

Awkward fit
Purchased for my 5’5” daughter and they just look awkward. Not long, not short. Tight in odd places.

Under Armour response
Hey, there! Sorry to hear the fit and sizing of our shorts were off for your daughter. We know that the look and feel are everything and when it's not perfect, it can throw off the whole vibe. The size and fit guide on the gear's product page will tell you the exact measurements for our clothes and can help you find shorts that offer an amazing fit. We're sure we can find something that is just what she wants. I'll reach out to get more details!

Great length for long legs!
I’m about 5’10 and I thought the length of these was so perfect! Definitely a little longer than most shorts, so I felt like I could wear them a bit higher waisted and love them! Great color options also!

Comfortable, lightweight shorts
These are great 5” shorts. They are the perfect length (much more coverage than the 3" options). These shorts dry quickly, are roomy and have pockets!
