Wonderful

These are the most comfortable shorts I’ve ever worn. I LOVE the waist band. Usually high waisted bottoms are so tight on me, but these are perfect without being baggy in the hips.

Tummy control but not restricting

Love the length (4”) and the material. I’m mixed on the high rise - it provides good coverage and a little control without being restricting, but I’m not used to shorts with such a high waist, so sometimes that extra fabric feels annoying. For reference, I’m 5’2” and 107 pounds and I ordered size 4. The fit is perfect - not too tight, not too loose.

Best Mom Shorts!

If you are short waisted or have had a baby or both you must own these. I am back ordering my 2nd and 3rd pair. So good!

Something Different

I am not a high waisted short type of person, but these shorts just may change me. The waistband is wide and holds you in without feeling suffocating. They are a bit more form fitting than I’m use to, but not at all uncomfortable. The inner thigh material is longer than the outside. Different, but not a deal breaker.

The perfect running shorts

If I could give these 10 stars I would. I love them so much I have multiple pairs in the same color/print. They are so comfy all around. The roomy zipper back pocket holds my phone and gels for races. I’m in my 50’s and the 4 inch length is perfect and the high waist provides a bit more coverage especially when worn with a sports bra or crop tank. The only running short I’ll wear. Thanks Oiselle..these are the perfect running short.

My everything shorts

I love these shorts! I use them for everything —Running, SUP, CrossFit, Beach days swimming. They have a nice waist that does not put any pressure on my sensitive tummy. The shorts (and liner) stay in place while active.

Not for me

I wanted to love these. Everyone else does! And yes, they’re comfortable. The waist is soft, the material is light. I put them on, hopeful and excited to test them out.

But alas. There’s just so much fabric! My thighs are pretty muscular and not only do they gobble this fabric up, there’s so much material that it’s uncomfortable to run with it all bunched up.

The best rogas yet!

I’ve been wearing roga shorts for over 10 years and have always had the regular fit. These high waisted rogas fit beautifully, are very comfortable, and look great. So good that I have to order a second pair!

Great shorts

Love these shorts, start off feeling a little snug but stretch just enough. Only thing that could improve them is a drawstring waistband. I'm almost 5'10 and normally qear size 28 in jeans. I got the size 6 which fits well.

Love these

Only thing I don't like is the one pocket - two would be great! Otherwise they are wonderful shorts

I’m surprised at how much i love these shorts. The pattern is fun and colorful, and i think they are the best fitting Rogas i own. They may be slightly narrower through the upper hip than previous years’ Rogas. Very flattering, even when drenched in sweat

Never Had a Roga I Didn’t Love

My all-time favorite running shorts. I’ve never had a pair of rogues that I didn’t love and wear to the bone. Love these colors and the fit is perfect especially for this postpartum runner. Five stars all around.

YeSSSSSS

I am a LONG TIME Roga lover, but this is my first pair of high rise rogas and I am OBSESSED! I am currently pregnant, so I ordered a size up from my normal roga size and absolutely love the added support around the belly!

The BEST athletic shorts!

This is my 6th or 7th pair of the high rise Roga shorts. (I own both the 4in and 6in inseam.) As a 45 year old high school coach and PE/ Health teacher, these are perfect! The shorts do not ride up and they have secure pockets galore. I have a few friends now addicted to the high rise Roga as well. They are well worth the cost. EXCELLENT quality!

Chafe more than regular roga

I was excited for the high rise but these seem to chafe and ride up more than the regular roga shorts? I feel like when you're running the waistband is thicker so it draws the fabric up more when in motion

Ride up

These shorts fit amazing- but I they ride up terrible when running. I'll keep them for hiking, but unfortunately won't be used for what I purchased them for.

Best ever!

I’m an avid runner and former competitive triathlete and I love these shorts! They fit perfectly, no binding or chafing and the high rise waist adds to their comfort.

Great shorts!

I’ve struggled to find running shorts I like, but these are great. The high rise waist sits at a great spot and the width and stretch of the waistband feel comfortably supportive. The phone pocket is very handy as well. The 4” length offers the coverage I prefer to shorter shorts. The brief is comfortable and stays in place.

My only complaint is I wish they offered this short in more solid color choices.

Love the high rise roga style. Wish they'd bring back past colours, though. Especially juniper.

My new favorite running shorts

Thanks to a social media ad, I originally purchased the Wyld flower print and LOVED them so much I purchased the same style in Flower Burst and Black. The Wyld Flower fit absolutely perfect while the Flower Burts runs big and the Black runs small. This is the only reason I gave 4 stars. The inner liner stays in place, they are super comfortable, and my phone fits securely in the back zipper pocket. These 4” inseam is perfect for coverage and I love the high waist.

Too loose in waist to tight on hips

Weird fit

I loved my original roga shorts from over 10 years ago. They still fit great except got paint stains so I was excited to try these high waist ones. I must have a similar body type to other low reviews. I ordered a 6 according to the size chart. It fit well in the glutes, but were too loose in the waist and thighs and caused a weird flare. 4 was too tight in the glutes/pelvis. Afraid 8 is gonna be too loose in the waist to keep shorts up. I wished they still made the soft waist with inner drawstring, but I guess that would limit storage options. Will try the regular roga shorts since other reviews say those may fit better than high waist ones.

Disappointing

I purchase this pair in my usual size. I expected the same fit and unfortunately the high rise created and issue where they rose up on me when I ran instead of staying in place like the Roga shorts and tool belt rogas. I had to continually pull them down to stay covered and comfortable. Sadly I removed the tags because they were my usual size and I was unable to return them. I would send a video but I would feel uncomfortable doing that. I am 5’5” and 120# and purchased a size 4. I truly believe a 6 would be too large.

Comfy & flattering!

Just got these and love the fit! The high rise waist band is so comfortable and flattering. No muffin top haha! The 4” length is perfect. Im 5’3. Not too long, not too short and doesn’t ride up. The flower burst design is so pretty. Please make more colors/designs!

High Rise Roga

The design is practical. I found the sizing on the large side. I used the sizing chart on the Oiselle site and ordered accordingly but the shorts were so large that my phone was flopping around the zipper pocket & thumping against my back. Couldn't put anything in the big slit pocket because the shorts were so large that things fell out. The colors & design are great.

The best running shorts for pregnancy!

These are the most comfortable shorts I've found for running while pregnant - I just went up a size. Currently at 23 weeks and the waistband is stretchy enough for some more bump growth. Happy that I'll be able to wear them postpartum as well since they aren't typical maternity shorts!
