Gym shorts

Gym shorts for men and women, made for lifting, running and classes. For women, the Evolve Seamless Shorts: high waisted with a scrunch bum, a 5 inch inseam on a size M and sweat-wicking seamless fabric, in sizes XS to XXL. For men, the Evolve Shorts: a regular fit in 80% cotton and 20% polyester, with a drawcord waist and open side pockets, in sizes S to XXL.

Which workout shorts for which session?

Start with the training. For squats, lunges and leg day, you want shorts that stay put and let your hips move. For women that means a high waisted seamless short; for men, a regular fit training short. Running and HIIT call for lighter athletic shorts that keep you cool. See women's gym shorts, men's gym shorts, and running shorts for women and men.

Seamless or cotton?

Seamless shorts are knitted in one piece, so there are no side seams to rub and the fit stays close, like leggings cut short. They suit lifting and studio classes. Cotton blend shorts sit looser and feel soft, for the gym and for every day. The Evolve Everyday Shorts are French terry, made for rest days. See all seamless shorts.

How gym shorts should fit

Seamless shorts should feel snug without digging in at the waist, and the hem should stay where it is when you squat. Ours are squat proof, with a long narrow gusset that stretches with you and cuts chafing. Men's training shorts need room through the thigh so the hem does not ride up at the bottom of a squat.

What to wear with gym shorts

Pair the Evolve Seamless Shorts with a sports bra to build a gym set, or wear leggings on colder days. The Evolve Shorts go with an oversized gym t-shirt, or browse all men's shorts.

What is the difference between gym shorts and running shorts?

Gym shorts give you room for squats and lunges and are often cotton or a cotton blend. Running shorts are lighter, often with a split hem and a built in liner, in a fabric that dries fast.
Do the seamless shorts ride up during workouts?

No, our seamless shorts are designed to stay in place during workouts. However, it’s important to ensure you're wearing the right size. If you find that your shorts are riding up, we recommend sizing up for a better fit and added comfort.
Do the seamless items shrink after washing?

No, our seamless items do not shrink after washing. All of our items have been preshrunk to ensure they maintain their size and shape even after multiple washes.
Should I wear leggings or shorts to the gym?

Both workout leggings and shorts are great options for the gym and exercise. It ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many people opt for training shorts in warmer weather for better breathability and comfort.
