Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.7 / 5 from 29 reviews.

Great quality and fit. Definitely will be ordering again!

Kelsey W. 5/5 Verified August 21, 2026

Biker shorts are not my go to when it comes to athletic wear, and I was super nervous about trying them. When I got mine from Royal Change, I was instantly amazed with them; I had never felt so good about how I looked in them! They were also super comfy, not too thick of a material and perfect for workouts or everyday use. Will definitely be purchasing again!

Caroline V. 5/5 Verified July 29, 2026

Customer photo review of ESSENCE 4.5" Performance Short

Perfect for doing lots of walking, these stay down with no constant pull up. The navy color is perfect for wanting subtle color.

Amber H. 5/5 Verified July 22, 2026

5’ 1” and 113 lbs wearing size medium shorts - I love them they are my second pair!

Melissa V. 5/5 Verified July 21, 2026

Lisa H. 5/5 Verified July 18, 2026

Love the shorts. Soft, supportive and comfortable

Marnie B. 5/5 Verified July 18, 2026

I bought several biker pants and tops. Have only tried the black set and love them. They are very comfortable and stylish. Can’t wait to try the remaining items in my order.

Dagmar M. 5/5 Verified July 17, 2026

The fabric, the color, the lenght... omg! LOVE IT 😍❤️‍🔥

Paola M. 5/5 Verified June 10, 2026

I love the fit and comfort of these shorts! They do run a tad small...I am 5'3" and 145 pounds and needed to size up to an extra large. Exchanging the large for extra large was very easy! I'm so happy with this purchase!

Megan M. 5/5 Verified June 2, 2026

Comfortable!

Melissa W. 5/5 Verified April 27, 2026

Chica C. 5/5 Verified March 16, 2026

Kara P. 5/5 Verified March 7, 2026

Love the fit style and compression. Ordered a medium- I am 132 and 5'4. Perfect fit. Super soft material!!!

Shannon C. 5/5 Verified March 2, 2026

Love the fit, style and compression. Ordered a medium- I am 132 and 5'4. Perfect fit. Super soft material!!!

Shannon C. 5/5 Verified March 2, 2026

These are my favorite shorts as I love a 4.5” length with no front seam! Depth Blue is a pretty color and looks great with the high neck sports bra in the matching color and with other RC sports bras I have from the Essence and Bold collections. The fit is very compressive with very minimal times when I have to pull down the shorts when resistance training or doing cardio.

Maureen V. 5/5 Verified March 1, 2026

Love the color!

Rosemarie L. 5/5 Verified February 27, 2026

Shorts are very comfortable and true to size.

Nicole L. 5/5 Verified February 18, 2026

Perfect fit!

Tiffany H. 5/5 Verified January 14, 2026

Both the navy and green shorts fit perfectly. Love the make and the material. I’m pretty sure I’ve ordered something from everyone of the launch es and have never been disappointed.

Mitzie F. 5/5 Verified December 11, 2025

I have several of those shorts. They are so comfortable and yet offer enough compression without being too tight. I love the material.

Karin K. 5/5 Verified December 10, 2025

Nice shorts! Easy exchange to change sizes

Allyson P. 4/5 Verified June 26, 2026

Feel great and don’t roll!!❤️

Joy L. 4/5 Verified May 7, 2026

My daughter likes these shorts.

Sandra C. 4/5 Verified March 7, 2026

I am short 5’2 so I like the length of the shorts. The top does roll down on me during workouts but I wear a shirt so no one else sees it. I think the fit is still a good fit for me.

Stephanie C. 4/5 Verified December 13, 2025

Tighter than expected. Wish it had pockets. Material and colors are beauitful though!

Leigha J. 3/5 Verified July 22, 2026
