Athletic Works Women's Plus Size Core Active Dri-Works Bike Shorts

These are absolutely my go-to shorts. I wear them to work out in, go shopping or just staying home. I have about 6 pair of black ones that I have had for years and was pleased to see a few other colors, this being a dark brick red color. The fabric content 90% cotton, 10% spandex is everything to me. They wash up so well, don't pill and are so much more comfortable than thise with high nylon, polyester, or spandex contents.

These are my go-to shorts. Great fabric 90% cotton 19% spandex. Wash up great, no holes, doesn't pill. I wear them to work out, garden...pretty much my everyday shorts. My only wish for these is for them to have a pocket.

The Danskin Now Women's Plus Active Bike Shorts are so comfortable and I highly recommend these and I am able to more comfortably. The fit is perfectly and I cannot wait to order more of these from there website. I have no complaints. I will also use these for work because we can wear black shorts with tennis shoes with the children.

I love how comfortable these shorts are and they fit true to size. They are well made with a crotch rather than just a seam. They are knee length which is exactly what I was looking for and with a lot a stretch and recovery, they look and feel good all day and night. These are the perfect shorts and I ordered another pair. These will be great for the summer!

This review is for the Danskin Now Women's Plus Active Bike Shorts. Well I have to say I do love these shorts. They are so soft and comfortable. I'm very pleased with the quality and also how sharp looking they are. The black is a nice dark shade and did not fade after the first washing. The description says these shorts have a 4-way stretch and that's exactly right. They stretch with movement 4 ways just the way they claim. I also found them very breathable and just as they claimed the shorts absorbed moisture from all the sweating. I really like how the waist band does not dig in. They sit around my waist snug but not tight. And the waist band comes up just over my belly button just like I prefer. I'd like to get a few more pairs because I love just wearing these around the house too. I do a lot of bending and squatting just around the house cleaning and doing daily chores. So I'm always happy when I find shorts like these that will allow me to do that without cutting into my stomach or stretching out of shape.

Thank goodness these were available in one size too large for me, because I have never assimilated with the style of tight fitting, body-shape revealing pants. The bigger size gives me some loose material for concealment as I prefer. I can be more comfortably active with a slightly loose but stretchy fit and a long top to cover up. So comfortable at the waistline, the material is as durable as, yet not rough like, jean cotton with a metal zipper and button. The wide, covered, flat elastic makes it easy to pull on the shorts quickly. These Bike Shorts are cool and breathable cotton with very comfortable and relaxing stretch from some spandex. They will not overstretch since the percentage of spandex is low. Instead of exercising, my chore life brings me to many different movement requirement tasks. These shorts let me reach up, bend for a long time picking up weeds and sticks, rake and pick up a pile, and move along vigorously trimming branches, or pushing or riding the mower. The Danskin Now Bike Shorts are hardy enough not to tear or rip, and I can perform all the work while hardly needing to adjust the shorts. With no need to pull the waist up, pull the legs down, or shift the shorts around, I can keep actively going and get finished sooner. No tag on the waistband prevents the scratchy itch a stiff label can cause. My activities are very important therefore, the correct apparel for the work is essential. Danskin Now is an apparel line that suits my needs, fits with all the comfort there could possibly be, and is plenty rugged and tough for accomplishing the hard work. The short's color of indigo blue is exactly the color of real indigo. It is not navy dark but dark enough that outdoor stains do not show up—perfect, and a beautiful shade. The length keeps my thighs covered and the shorts go to a couple of inches above the tops of my knees which I like. The thickness is medium and does not feel hot due to the good cotton fabric and wonderful added moisture absorbing properties. The fabric strength prevents snags, wrinkles, and stretching out. All I could wish for would be one pocket or a material hook for keys, however, my shirt pocket is good enough for that when wearing these really nice shorts.

These, "Athletic Works Women's Plus Size Active Bike Shorts" are extremely comfortable. These fit true to size and no matter weather I'm riding my bike, walking, rowing, lifting weights or whatever, I never feel any constrictions while wearing them because the material stretches with me. The material they are made of wicks the moisture from my body. They are made well with quality materials and feel like they will last a long time as well as look great.

These shorts are very comfortable and very well made, the seams are very strong, but have enough give to stretch with you. The shorts go all the way up to the waist and down to my knees, which for me, makes them even more comfortable. The material stretches with you, even when doing warming up exercises for any sport. There was not a single position I tried, that I felt that the seams would not hold up for, or that the material would not comfortably stretch to accomodate. The shorts do not slide or creep down or up during any activity, they wonderfully stay exactly where they should. I found that they did not bunch up at all, anywhere, doing anything. They go through the washer and dryer with no issues at all. They are thin enough to be cool, but are thick enough to not be see through at all. The material is stretchy enough to allow you to comfortably do any movement at all, and it does not become saggy. The shorts are the size they are supposed to be, I am 5'2" and weigh 160lbs, the size I got is 2x, and the fit is good, so it is safe to order the size you wear. There are no pockets in these shorts.

This is a review for a short On the web it says that it is for cycling, the truth is that I think it can be used to take bike rides, but it is not specifically for this. Those that are specific to bike are those that have internal pads for added comfort. Checking the seams is well cooked, and has a small triangle reinforced in the crotch, it is soft and fresh material but it is not Lycra is not stretch. The color is attractive is a turquoise green. The size is plus, easy to wash and dry, do not use bleach. I can recommend it to walk in summer, or to use in the park, it is for informal use, it is very comfortable. My friend is an older person and said she was very comfortable, because it didn't bother her or mistreat her skin.

I received my Danskin Now Women's Plus Active Bike Shorts Received three days ago. Unfortunately they either run very small, or these are mis marked. I am a little disappointed as I was looking forward to using them especially since the temperatures have really warmed here. They are fairly thick, and some stretch but not a huge amount of stretch. I really like the length, and feel. These have a little more “control” to them than my Leggings by them do. I love those; my favorites are the ones with the pockets. I guess these will go to my inspiration pile, They don't have bulky seems or hems, and I think if they fit would be comfortable. The weave is such that you can tell it will let air in to help dry, and its soft. Im positive I would like them, and as I said I love their legging style active wear. When I get back into the store I will try on the next size and see if those will work as I really wanted them. Disappointed I cant help you all more with them, but cant get them on. Really nice fabric, and they feel soft. So I do like that. They are a deep black, not washed out. My other Danskin products have washed well, and haven't lost their color at all. So I would assume the same on these. I would recommend them but if you can try them on until you know this style fits, then I would be fine with ordering more. If my daughter can wear them will try to update the review.
