Sport shorts ladies

Women's athletic shorts are the piece of clothing you'll forget you're even wearing during your workout—if they fit right. Our women's athletic shorts are designed exactly for that: opaque, shape-retaining, and with a waistband that stays where it's supposed to. Whether you're strength training, running, or enjoying a summer day outdoors—you'll find the length and fit that suit your workout here.

Opaque athletic shorts that don't show through during squats

The most common reason why sports shorts stay in the closet: they become see-through when you squat low. Our women’s sports shorts are made from a dense nylon-spandex knit with 4-way stretch that stretches without losing its thickness. The Pure Sport Shorts 15cm and the Perform Sport Shorts fit like a second skin, don’t ride up during squats, and remain opaque even during deadlifts and lunges.

Women's Running Shorts with Built-In Shorts: 2-in-1 Protection Against Chafing

When it comes to running, it’s the inner shorts that make the difference. The Hybrid 2-in-1 Running Shorts combine form-fitting inner shorts for support with lightweight outer shorts for full freedom of movement—no chafing, no slipping. A hidden pocket holds your phone, gels, or keys without jiggling while you run. For fast-paced workouts, intervals, and the Hyrox course, the Race Sport Shorts 18cm are also the right choice.

What length? 12 cm, 15 cm, or 18 cm

We offer women's short athletic shorts in three lengths so you don't have to choose between freedom of movement and coverage:

• 12 cm – Fusion X Shorts: the shortest style with a light compression effect, ideal for hot days and intense workouts.
• 15 cm – Pure Sport Shorts: the all-around choice for the gym, yoga, and everyday wear.
• 18 cm – Race Sport Shorts: more leg coverage, less chafing on the inner thighs.

Material, Fit, and Care

Our Sport Shorts are made primarily of 80% nylon and 20% elastane, while the Perform Sport Shorts are made of an exceptionally soft blend of 78% nylon and 22% spandex. The fabric is breathable, quick-drying, and retains its shape. The shorts are cut for a snug fit in sizes XS through L—if you prefer a looser fit, choose the next size up. Wash inside out at 30 °C, without fabric softener and do not tumble dry.
