Adams Women's Compression Shorts

I am an average size L (12) and the large size of these shorts was WAY too tight. Very high-wasted and long in the thigh.

I wear compression shorts for medical reasons, focusing on compression of my abdomen. I've tried many varieties of shorts; the low-waisted ones tend to compress well at the abdomen but unfortunately can be uncomfortable and, if they're providing good compression, leave a bit of muffin-top which is visible even under other clothes.These Adams shorts sit closer to the natural waist, but are made with such a strong, stretchy material that they still give good compression across the whole garment.They look sheer when held to the light, though the material feels thick. However, when worn, they seem opaque enough to cover underwear. There is definitely visible panty line due to tightness.The strength of the stretchy material makes them hard to put on, but once they are on they do not feel excessively tight. They're comfortably tight.I purchased one size down from my current shorts size (I typically do this to make sure I get good compression; most of the time it works out). One size down from shorts size was the right selection for this item used as a compression garment.I typically wear shorts with about a 10"-11" inseam. This item has a longer inseam than most of the other compression shorts I've tried. The bottom is just about the same as the bottom hem of my shorts, so with movement and so on it may peek out the bottom a bit. The colors are very bright and peeking will probably be visible. Fortunately there's a range of colors; I can just try to coordinate with my outfit, or I can wear longer pants/skirts.This is an excellent choice for abdominal compression. It may not be perfect as daily wear under every kind of "regular" clothes, but will still work well with some. It will probably be fine on its own as a workout garment.

I ordered these in red and in blue in the same size. The red fit great but the blue are a size too small although they are labled and tagged the exact same. Strange

I was looking for something to wear under my skirts and dresses so I would not have to wear stockings to prevent chafing. This was perfect. Breathable, non-abrasive and not too tight but provided some support. I have washed them 3 times and no signs of wear. Definitely would buy more.

Love these! Awesome fit!
