High Waist Active Shorts

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape and measure while standing, wearing thin underwear or a close-fitting layer. Keep the tape parallel to the floor and snug but not tight. Record measurements in both inches and centimeters when possible.

1. Waist (where the shorts sit): Measure around the natural waist or the point where you want the high waistband to sit. Breathe normally—don’t suck in.
2. Hips / High hip: Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat. For high-waist shorts, you may prefer a "high hip" measurement where the waistband rests.
3. Inseam: Two options: (a) On your body — measure from the crotch point straight down to the desired hem. (b) On a pair of shorts that fit — lay them flat and measure the inner seam from crotch seam to hem.
4. Front rise: Measure from the crotch seam (center front) straight up to the top of the waistband. This is important for high-rise fit and comfort.
5. Thigh circumference: Measure around the fullest part of the thigh, keeping the tape level and parallel to the floor.
6. Total length (optional): Measure from the top of the waistband down the side seam to the hem to compare overall length between styles.

Tip: If you have a favorite pair of shorts, measure that garment flat (width × 2 for circumference) and compare to the product measurements in the size chart. If you fall between sizes, consider the fabric stretch and whether you prefer a snug or relaxed fit.

Materials & features

Exact materials vary by style—check the product label for the precise fabric breakdown. Common materials and finishes used in high-waist active shorts include:

• Nylon: Smooth, durable, quick-drying and abrasion resistant.
• Polyester: Lightweight, moisture-wicking, colorfast and often available in recycled form.
• Elastane / Spandex / Lycra: Adds 4-way stretch and shape recovery for a body-hugging, comfortable fit.
• Cotton blends: Softer hand-feel and breathability but slower to dry; usually blended with synthetics for performance.
• Mesh lining / inner brief: For added support, breathability and quick drainage.
• Finishes: Anti-odor treatments, UPF sun protection, silicone grip at the waistband to prevent rolling, and chlorine-resistant options for swim/triathlon styles.

Example fabric compositions (replace with the garment’s actual label):

• Main: 78% Nylon / 22% Elastane — compressive, quick-dry; Lining: 100% Polyester mesh.
• Main: 88% Recycled Polyester / 12% Spandex — moisture-wicking, soft hand and good recovery.

Note: Higher elastane content improves stretch but requires gentler washing and lower heat to maintain longevity.

Model

Example (for reference): Model height 5'9" (175 cm) — wearing size S. Example model measurements: Bust 34" / Waist 24" / Hips 35".

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn shorts inside out before washing to protect color, prints and silicone grips.
• Machine wash cold (30°C / cold cycle) on gentle with like colors; use a mild detergent.
• Avoid fabric softeners and bleach—softeners reduce moisture-wicking and breathability.
• Use a mesh laundry bag for delicates and zip any pockets or closures to prevent snagging.
• Hang to dry or tumble dry low only if the care label permits; high heat degrades elastane and elastic waistbands.
• Do not iron printed logos or silicone trims; if ironing is needed, use a low setting and press on the reverse side.
• Rinse promptly after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated pools to prevent fiber damage.
• Store folded rather than hanging heavy elastic items long-term to avoid stretching the waistband.

Quick stain tip: Blot stains, pre-treat with a mild detergent solution, and launder promptly on a cool, gentle cycle.

Style tips

• Workout-ready: Pair with a fitted sports bra or tank and your go-to running shoes for studio, gym or HIIT.
• Casual/Errand run: Combine with an oversized tee or sweatshirt and sneakers for an easy athleisure look.
• Layered look: Add a cropped hoodie or lightweight zip jacket for cooler mornings; tuck or half-tuck tops to emphasize the high waist.
• Street style: Match with a boxy crop top, denim jacket and chunky sneakers for a fashion-forward vibe.
• Beach / pool: Wear over a bikini top or with a quick-dry tank for a swim-to-street outfit (choose chlorine-resistant fabrics if swimming).
• Sizing & silhouette: High waist accentuates the waist—tuck tops to define your shape or wear with cropped tops to show the waistband.
• Accessories: Low socks, baseball caps, a compact belt bag or minimalist jewelry keep the look sporty and functional.
• Shoe pairing: Running shoes for performance, slides for casual, or platform sneakers for a trend-forward appearance.
