Do They Ride Up?
Do They Ride Up?
Our shorts are designed to stay put, which is why "don't ride up" is one of the things mentioned most often in our reviews.
HOWEVER... Fit plays a very big part. For best performance, the shorts should feel comfortably snug around the thigh, particularly at the bottom hem and sit on or past the widest part of your leg.
If you're concerned about ride up or chafing, we'd usually recommend choosing an 8" or 10" length for extra confidence and coverage.

Will the Pockets Fit Phones?
Will the Pockets Fit Phones?
Yes, each side pocket fit phones. The rear pocket is designed for smaller valuables and essentials.
We’ve placed the side pockets lower on the thighs to avoid high movement areas around the hips. This keeps your phone and essentials secure with no bounce or shifting. So comfortable, you’ll forget you’re carrying anything at all!

from 1348 reviewsLovely high-quality material with the features that every runner needs. You can really tell that these were designed by women for women.
I’m a fussy so and so when it comes to running leggings but these have wowed me! They feel like a second skin! They stay in place when I’m running and when I’m in the gym, they look good, and more importantly make me feel good, and what can I say about the side pockets….in love! I ordered some Christmas running socks too. Is November too early to wear them? Most definitely not!
Customer service was top quality too.
I've been hunting for the Right pair of black leggings and I've finally found them. Comfy, feel great, squat proof and side pockets. Tick all my boxes.
Went for the x large- I am a curvy size 14 and they are a great fit and so soft. I am 5 ft 5 and the 7/8 leggings are just above my ankles. Really like supporting a young British company and the ethos of the company
especially as an older bimbler!
I have been looking for the perfect running shorts for what seems like forever, but I have now finally found them! They fit snugly without being too tight and do not move or ride up when running. You can literally forget that you have them on and don’t have to constantly pull then legs down as I find I have to with lots of other brands. They also have lots of pockets, making them perfect for a long run or a race. I also love this colour and have ordered more colours since! Plus great service from Bimble & Bolt!
Exactly what I’d been looking for. Two decent sized leg pockets, phone and gels stayed put. Little zip pocket at back. Perfect for keys. Nice and supportive too., no rolling up or down. All round great shorts
Love the quality and fit of the leggings, they are my 2nd pair. Great, quick service too.
My friend recommended these leggings and described them like our favourite SB leggings but better. She wasn’t wrong! They are so comfortable to run in and are completely squat proof.
As a life long fan of another brand, I never thought I’d stray - having previously done so and been left disappointed. BUT these are hands down the best leggings ever! Super soft, tight but not restrictive, stay up, no baggy bits, sweat proof and importantly pockets galore! Defo buying the black pair and can’t wait for mermaid to be back in stock. AMAZING!

I already have the 6in version of these shorts and was looking for a shorter pair but with the pockets …..then these popped up!!
Absolutely perfect…..they don’t ride up, feel amazing and I can still fit my phone, keys and gel in these shorts if I need too!
I wear a size 8 normally and ordered an XS which fit perfectly. The waist is just the right height and very comfortable. Will keep my eye out for this length in different colours!!
The shorts are lovely and soft and do feel comfortable but they ride up, I think the length meaning they sit on the widest part of the thigh just makes them roll up during runs which is a shame
Hi Laura,
Thanks for the feedback and sorry they weren’t quite a perfect fit for you this time.
The 4' length can be a little tricky if they sit on the widest part of the thigh, which can make them want to move upwards during runs. We’re doing a lot of research and testing around the 4' at the moment to keep improving them. A 6' may be a better fit and stop the problem.
If you’d like to give another length a go, just drop me a message at hi@bimbleandbolt.com hopefully we can find something perfect for you
Thank you
Hannah 😊
Already had the longer shorts but wanted a shorter pair for a cross fit competition. Looked great and so comfortable. Huge fan of the brand. Can’t wait for other products to become available!!!
Great length Stay in place and comfy LOVE them
