Too tight waist band
I have run 3-5miles 3x in these shorts and have to say the only, yet major drawback, is the tightness of the waistband. I really like the fabric, it is soft and flowy. The fit and inseam length are great, with the shorts staying put while in motion - no creeping up the thighs or backside. The waistband is narrow and uncomfortably tight. I am thinking of cutting a slit in the side of elastic to see if it will be more comfortable. I am 5'1" and 110lbs with athletic thighs. I tried on both the S & XS, and kept the XS as the S were too large / droopy for me.
