Great shots

I've had the shorts for over a month now, and have taken them on a number of runs in different weather, and they have felt absolutely great, like a second skin. I'm not sure about the compression bit, but it does hug the thighs quite nicely and doesn't move around. Pockets are a great thing to have, although the phone pocket can only fit a small phone. I'd definitely recommend them.

That said, a couple suggestion for 2XU:

The sizing is a bit confusing. On the website, the sizing was based on weight and height, which for me it got completely wrong. I was then sent another different size system, and then on the box there was yet another. It would be helpful to have a consistent sizing system, ideally by measurements and not height / weight. For reference I'm 5"6 and 130lb, and the small ended up fitting me well (it may be cause I'm overall more muscular?).

Second, in your next iteration, pockets - they're great, but hard to find and dig things out of when I run (I keep having to stop and try to find what I have stashed, or try to stash things back. 2 larger zip pockets would be helpful - one to fit a larger phone, and one smaller one for the smaller items. Even a side pocket if it's feasible? Pockets are awesome.

Prefect!

Bought these for running, what sold me was the ample pocket space on the rear waist band, which is enough to fit my phone, keys and glucose gel. They're an excellent fit, the compression is just right and I love the comfort of a high waist. I own three now!
