Is $29.98 a good price for these shorts?

Yes. At $29.98 at ShopSimon as of November 8, 2026, they cost less than typical Calvin Klein shapewear at full-price department stores.

How do these fit compared with regular underwear?

They run small. Many owners suggest going one size up from your usual Calvin Klein size, especially if you are between sizes.

Light to moderate. The tummy panel smooths and the mid-thigh length prevents rub, but this is not firm-control shapewear.

Black, Lilac Quartz, Ice Water and Turf, in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL.

The mid-thigh length works under most dresses and skirts, but check the hem against very short styles so the shorts do not show.

Discount sites like ShopSimon tend to be cheapest on clearance colors and odd sizes; black in core sizes usually costs more.
