Size Guide
📏 How to Measure Yourself
Measure Your Waist: Wrap a tape around your natural waistline (just above your belly button, where your body bends side to side). Keep the tape snug but not tight. Round up to the nearest inch.
Measure Your Inseam: Measure from the top of your inner thigh (crotch seam) down to the spot on your leg where you want the shorts to end.
1.5–3" = Short/athletic fit | 4–6" = Mid-length | 7–10" = Longer fit
Measure Your Bra Size: Use an unlined, non-padded bra.
Bust: Place the tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping it straight across your back.
Underbust (Band): Wrap the tape around your ribcage, just under your bust.

Between Sizes?
If your measurements fall on the edge of two sizes, consider your preferred level of support:
High-impact activities (running, HIIT, sports) — size down for a compressive, supportive fit.
Everyday or lower-impact wear (lifestyle, casual, yoga, all-day comfort) — size up for a relaxed fit that still offers support.

Love these tights. My 5th pair.
I wore my Chickn Leg half tights yesterday for a run. They felt fine and were just as good as half tights costing a lot more.
great fit and pocket size!, some other brands have thinner or smaller pockets. definitively the best ones I have found out of every brand
Genuinely never felt comfort in a pair of half tights as I have in these
Wonderful fit and comfort for extended exercise and general activity the pockets are a big plus for phone wallet.

If you're on the fence, just buy them and get at least two pairs. I'm more of a short shorts guy, but I like half tights for racing and long runs. These have everything—quality, fit, comfort, price, pockets. They have the same liner as the 2" split shorts, which I've never seen in half tights but really like. Key pocket in the liner and a phone/gels pocket on each hip. For reference, I'm 5'5", 135lbs and S fits perfectly. Nothing beats chicknlegs, let's goooo.
Ordered the pickle set to include the tank, 8” tights and 4” shorts and they’re SO comfortable. I could and might run forever in them! 👀🔥
I wore these shorts for a half marathon and my run belt rubbed off the color. They are now ruined :/ I’m super disappointed.
I’ve worn a lot of tights in my days of running and I’ve never gotten more compliments than I did at the last race with my flamingo. Me tights. They feel great and stylish.
The best performance and value in a running tights. 1st class material and design,glad my running mentor recommended.
I love these half tights and have several pair. They are phenomenal at preventing chafing. However, I’m disappointed with the navy blue. The color difference between the outside and inside means that any wear and tear is magnified. Carry a phone in the pocket and it’s going to wear and show the white side of the fabric. Avoid the navy blue.
Hi Brian,
We're sorry about this defective item. I'm emailing you now so we can resolve this asap for you.

I first saw the Dino-sore print at my local Sports Basement in SF, CA and had to have it. However, I'm a bigger guy and they didn't have my size. That's how I found you online. The XL fits me great and it inspired me to try the 4" shorts. I love running so much and it really resonates w/me to find prints as fun as yours! Only thing I hope is that you will make the Dino-sore print in a XXL singlet. Would that be possible? That would be a dream come true! Thank you for bringing the happiness to us runners. Much appreciated.
I really liked that these shorts stayed in place and did not slide up my leg. I did a 9 mile run in them right out of the package and loved them. The side pockets are quite large (almost a bit too big). My cellphone fit in the pocket easily (however, the size of the pocket allowed the phone to move a little in the pocket).
Be aware that the size of the side pockets allows your phone to easily pop out of the pocket if you happen to stop to use the restroom during a run.
I bought these in preparation for my first marathon (which is in a few days), and I have gone on two runs in them so far — a 10k and a 10-miler. The main reason for the buy was the pockets; the only other pair of running bottoms I have with good pockets are my winter leggings. These half tights have one on either leg and can comfortably fit my iPhone 14 Pro Max and a few cards on one side and at least 4 gels on the other. Everything stays in place pretty well while I am running, and the tights feel amazing. I am 5’8" and about 220, and Large fit well enough to where I would not have bought a different size. I love them and would highly recommend them.
These are fantastic i bought 2 more. great to jog with.
Great value for the money. Holds cell phone securely I would prefer that they would not have a liner. Just preference
My son (18yrs) wore these at a meet yesterday. The meet was all day as he is in the first race and the last race (distance runners get this). He said they were so comfortable on the track and off. They looked comfortable and didn’t ride up. He went on about them so much that we returned from the meet and ordered another pair!
I absolutely love these running tights and I am a woman. The women’s tights are too short for my (age) comfort level. I am 62
5”6 at 157 pounds I ordered the men’s M the smalls were to small around my thighs super quality I road my bike 10 miles in them and ran a 5k all in the same day no problems I normally order the M in the CVG brand at the 7in long
I love running in the men's half tights. I am a big guy 6' 255 lbs. I wear the size XL half tights. I never have issues with snugness on my long runs. I trained for my second marathon in these and they held up to the 18 mile long run test. The pockets had plenty of room for packing gels and salt tabs. I have the whole collection of these tights. My favorites so far are the flag, sloth, dinosore, flamingos, and Moo Choco Cow. In my dreams they will have these in the Sharks in time for the summer 5K season. I love the chuckles and happy comments that my running community gives. We had paper plate awards at our quarterly dinner and I got the Best Collection of Chickn legs award. LOL.

I ordered the forest green 8" half tights and the color is absolutely BANGIN'! I have a 29-30 inch waist so I ordered size small and the fit is perfect. The two side pockets are so deep - they are great for multiple gels and perfect size for my phone. The internal liner keeps everything in place where it should be. The best half tights out there!
