Are there any bike short style shorts and/or leggings you especially like for CrossFit that are comfortable without underwear? Or favorite shorts that have a built in brief? Can’t do g-string/thong bc of bacteria transfer (I’m at higher risk, it’s a personal thing). I generally wear Patagonia active hipsters under whatever workout shorts, but just interested in alternatives.

@blueblur777 Immediately came here to recommend CVG, I love these shorts and have slowly replaced every single pair of bottoms and sports bras in my closet with their products. FYI I find the 5" shorts to be the shortest I can go for CrossFit as a 5'8" lady without obnoxious thigh rubbing! They end up being the perfect 'bike short' length - just below where my thighs touch so they don't roll up or move, but short enough that they look nice. I also have a variety of capris and ankle-length styles for the colder months.
Also - I just checked my order history for this comment, and I realized that most of my pairs of shorts were bought back in 2021. Even my newer pairs were bought in Oct 2022, and I workout every single day, wash after every wear, and living in Texas - l put my shorts through a LOT. Every single pair is in great condition, I can't think of any signs of wear at all. TBH I feel like I really should reward myself with a few new pairs for this! They also have a lot of sales, although it's worth it to get some of their basics as well.

@gertlush I like the Lululemon Wunder Train 8 inch short. Light colors do show sweat so if this bothers you, i would stick with darker colors. Material is light and I have also found it durable for CrossFit. Sweat dries very quickly. They come in regular fit as well as contour fit for curvier builds with a bigger difference between hips and waist. They also have different inseams lengths but I like the 8 inch longer inseam because I sometimes experience the legs riding up with a shorter inseam. Hem hits be below biggest part of my thighs and keeps the hem down.
@godsdaughter Second these. They don’t ride up to bunch right under the butt like shorter ones do.

@gertlush Lululemon speed up shorts have built in underwear that I find very comfortable and I like that they don’t roll up on me.
