I love the quality of the shorts

I love the quality of the shorts. They fit my body shape, don't lose their shape over time and have plenty of pockets for keys etc. They are the best shorts that I've found on the market.

I also have the feel good factor of knowing that Happystride support mental health charities too.

Amazing company

Amazing company! I emailed to change my postage choice and heard back very quickly from Pete, who was super friendly and very helpful. Plus, Happystride shorts have encouraged a once anti-shorts wearer to wear shorts, with their most awesome designs!

Best running shorts ever

Best running shorts ever! Love the patterns, the amount of pockets it has (3!!???) and the fact that they actually secure my phone. They don't roll up, good quality material. Will be saving to increase the collection...

Having run in these for the first time…

Having run in these for the first time today, they are almost exactly what I’m looking for. The pockets are a great size. I’d like a longer ‘undershort’, I don’t understand why women’s shorts are always so skimpy, but these are the best I’ve found so far.

I'm a basic b*tch and i love it

I've had my eye on these shorts for ages! 25% off for London Marathon persuaded me and I am so glad because I love em! Great fit - I'm size 10 and 5:2 and went for the small, so comfortable and flattering, and all the pockets....already thinking about getting another pair! Speedy delivery too, especially at what must have been a busy time, thanks Happystride.
