The bike shorts: https://www.lululemon.co.uk/en-gb/p/fast-and-free-high-rise-short-6%22-pockets/prod11450254.html?dwvar_prod11450254_color=34115

How do they fit? I’m normally a 4-6, I wear 4 in invigorates, 4 in the old wunder under lux, 6 in the f&f, and have a 6 in the old f&f shorts. I found a pair on vinted for cheap, but they’re a size 4 so wondering if I can swing them haha. They have a grippy hem so I’m thinking it’s possible but idk. Let me know if you’ve tried them, how the sizing is, and what you think of them☺️

    I bought them! I’m usually a 4 in aligns, invigorates, fast & free leggings and never tried the old fast & free biker shorts.

    I was excited for them because POCKETS and am looking for some sort for marathon training in lieu of having to wear a running belt to hold all my gels/phone. I haven’t detagged yet because I’m worried they’re going to roll up, like many of the reviews said on the website. I walked around in my house with them and it felt like the grippy hem was moving and the shorts were riding up.

    If I detag to run in them and they roll up I can’t return them so guessing I’m just going to send them back :/ Unless others here can share feedback that they didn’t roll up for them. Sorry if this isn’t helpful!

    I don’t like them. I bought my normal size (6) and they fit great around the waist/hip but the thighs are so huge, they don’t fit snug around my thigh and roll up so badly.

    Sizing down just made them tight and pinchy around the waist. I won’t buy these again.

    I think that the grip is useless on the 6” shorts, at least in my experience. I have grips on these, base pace, and the F&F elite released a few years ago. The grip on the 6” version in all of these just isn’t as effective as it is in the 8” base pace and I’ve never experienced any rolling up on any of the longer length F&F shorts with the laser cut hem (no grip). My stitched hem F&F 6” don’t roll up and I’m glad that I bought them when they were still around. I don’t like the base pace waistband (and lack of pockets for my snacks) and I don’t like the waistband in the new version of these shorts, either. I love nulux, so it has been a ride the last few years as lululemon has messed with my staple.
