Hot Pants...

[naughtoj]

SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!

I am in a mad search for workout shorts. I am VERY picky when it comes to workout shorts for some reason and prefer the Hot Pants style that are very short, low rise with a little elasticity (to keep em snug) and NO DRAWSTRING!! I hate drawstrings!! I like the stretch to be just enough to where I can pull em on and they stay put but they don't push all these fat rolls out the bottom (Like traditional bike shorts)

Does anyone have the faintest clue as to what I am talking about. Seems like the little black shorts Cathe wears in Intensity would qualify but I don't know where to find them. I have looked at Ross and TJ MAxx but everything has a stinking drawstring....anyone have links????


Thanks!
Janice

Hi Janice,
The shorts Cathe wore in the Intensity Series was from Hot Skins. Actually, her pants and the top from Pymamid Upper were from Hot Skins as well.
www.hotskins.com They have elastic waist that forms a v in the front and no drawstings. Hope this helps a little.

Janice:

the 'v' shorts from Hotskins certainly would be ideal, but you know what I found for $6.99 at Target? The same thing in a more affordable package, under a name of St. Moret on the label. I find them very comfy, I do weight taining, cardio kickbox and step in them and am very happy with them.. For that price, you can't go wrong!

Now, don't get me wrong, Target is not, repeat NOT MY REGULAR SHOPPING DESTINATION!!!!!! But, who am I trying to kid?!?!?!?.......

p.s. they do not have a drawstring

Hi Janice,
I have about ten pair of the shorts that Clare is talking about that I got from Target. The only colors they have in Phoenix that I've found are blue and black. They hold up really well, too! HTH!:7

Hey Hey, I'm off to Target this weekend. Thanks Clare and Sherry for the heads up.

Janice, the ones at HotSkins cost around $30. These ones at Target sound like a very good deal. We don't always have to be in the same outfit as Cathe right? ;-)

I LUUUUUV Le Tar-zhay. Sometimes when I'm there I think about how long I could live there if I got trapped inside.

Yep - good ol' Georgie W. and his cronies can go to their bunker when it all falls apart - but I'm goin' to the Le Tarzhay! LOL!

Janice, I went to Wal-Mart a few weeks ago and found some boycut workout shorts that are very close to what Cathe wears and they were about $4.00 a pair, I really like them. I don't know if they have them at your wal-mart, but you can check, I like cheap when I can find it, then I can spend good money on what I really want, like more exercise dvd's lol. Hope this helps .... Rhonda :7

O.K., this may sound really wacky, and I honestly don't know if it will beat the prices of Wal-Mart or Targ'et.....but I LOVE them......my husband's boxer/briefs Silly, I know, but they are so darn comfortable that I bought my own for working out. They have a nice waistband that doesn't cut in, they are loose enough to be really comfy, but still sort of tight and actually, amazingly, a bit flattering. Then length for me is perfect, and they don't ride up. I hate all the tugging and pulling. I prefer the black because it obviously goes with any top color, but they come in grey, white, navy, med. blue.......and some guys think their wives are kinda sexy in them:7

Thanks for the advice everyone... I am off to Target and Walmart before I order from Hotskins. Gotta have those new Rykas now too...

Sherry...thanks for breakin' it down for me here in Phoenix!!

oooooohhhhhhh..... I want the shorts the crew is wearing in "Legs and Glutes". They seem to be wearing these little hottie black shorts in all the tapes. Does anyone know which short they are on Nike's site??
I looked, but could not tell which shorty short they were.

Anyone??

Janice:

it could be one of two shorts by Nike, either the #22413 Low rise workout short or the #224567 Shorty short which has the slight "v" at the front.

These two are so similar, it could be either in black!!!

Don't think you could go wrong with either

That is what I figured Clare...thanks! I went to the NIKE outlet here in Phoenix today and they had no such shorts! I got a moisture wicking tank top however for 9.99. I guess I will have to order the low rise workout short on the net....
