WHAT YOU NEED TO ORDER:

Mandatory Singlet Top and Mandatory Running Short OR the black Compression Shorts. 

The Ladies Compression Running Shorts are adult sizes only.  The basic unisex Compression Running Shorts come in both youth and adult sizes.  The unisex compression short is a longer inseam which you will notice from the photo and sizing information.  Please refer to the sizing charts on the website. Compression shorts run small, so when in doubt size up.

All uniforms are unisex sizes (singlet tops and running shorts).  
Youth sizes will fit as usual standard youth sizes:
YS  - Size 6-8
YM - Size 10-12
YL - Size 14-16
