Question 1

I'm worried about sizing, especially if I have wider hips or thighs. What's your best advice?**

Accepted Answer

This is a common concern. We recommend prioritizing your hip measurement over your waist when using the size chart. Many TikTok and Reddit users with curvier figures have shared that sizing up ensures the leg openings don't ride up, even if the waist feels slightly roomier. The inner shorts have a flexible fit and a secure waistband to accommodate this. If you're between sizes, sizing up is generally the safer bet for comfort.

Question 2

How well do these actually hide the bulk of the padding? Can I wear them under leggings?**

Accepted Answer

The built-in mesh skirt does an excellent job of disguising the pads, creating a cute, streamlined silhouette that looks like a skating skirt, not bulky shorts. However, as some honest reviewers note, if you wear very thin, tight leggings over them, you may see a slight outline of the pads. For complete invisibility, dedicated slim-fit padded shorts might be better. These are designed to be a stylish, all-in-one protective layer you wear *as* your bottom layer.

Question 3

Are these shorts suitable for aggressive skating, like at a skate park or for roller derby?**

Accepted Answer

While the Skating Spirit shorts provide excellent protection for recreational, figure, and trail skating, they are not designed for high-impact, repeated falls on concrete at high speeds. Users in skate park and derby communities often recommend specialized, heavier-duty crash pants for those activities. Our shorts are perfect for building confidence and preventing bruises during practice and casual skating.

Question 4

Is the mesh skirt durable, and can it be removed if I don't want it?**

Accepted Answer

The skirt is securely stitched to the shorts and is designed for durability with regular use. A small number of long-term users have mentioned the side seams can wear with extremely vigorous activity, so we recommend gentle washing. The skirt is **not removable**; it's an integral part of the design that conceals the pads. If you prefer pad-only shorts, you might want to explore alternatives.

Question 5

What if they don't fit or I'm not satisfied with my purchase?**

Accepted Answer
