Wide Waistband Sports Shorts
How to measure
Use these steps to find the best size—either measure your body (recommended) or measure a pair of shorts that fits you well.
Measure your body
- Waist: Wrap a soft tape measure around your natural waist (the narrowest point) or the position where you plan to wear the wide waistband (for high-rise wear above the belly button). Keep the tape snug but not compressing.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and buttocks with feet together.
- Thigh: Measure the fullest part of the upper thigh (about 1" / 2.5 cm below the crotch).
- Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam down the inner leg to where you want the hem to sit.
- Front rise: If you want to check how the shorts will sit, measure from the crotch seam straight up to the top of where the waistband will rest.
Measure the garment (if you already have the shorts)
- Lay the shorts flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric.
- Waistband (flat): Measure straight across the top edge of the waistband from one side to the other and multiply by 2 to get the circumference. If the waistband is elastic, also measure the maximum stretched width to know the range.
- Hips (flat): Measure across the widest point and multiply by 2.
- Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam along the inner leg to the hem.
- Length: Measure from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the hem at center front or center back as needed.
- Thigh & hem width: Measure across and multiply by 2 for full circumference.
Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm. For a comfortable fit, allow about 2–5 cm (0.8–2") extra ease at the hip and thigh depending on desired tightness.
Materials & features
Wide waistband sports shorts are typically engineered for movement and comfort. Common fabrics and what they do:
- Polyester or nylon + elastane/spandex – gives quick-drying performance, four-way stretch and good shape retention.
- Elastane/Spandex – provides stretch and recovery so the wide waistband hugs without digging in.
- Mesh lining or breathable panels – added ventilation and moisture release for high-intensity workouts.
- Flatlock seams – reduce chafing and increase comfort during repetitive movement.
- Wide, double-layered waistband – smooths, supports and helps the shorts stay in place during activity.
If you need the exact fabric breakdown for a particular color or batch, check the garment care label or product spec on the product page.
Model information
Example fit reference shown in product photos:
- Model height: 5'9" (175 cm)
- Wearing: Size S
- Model measurements: Bust 32" / Waist 24" / Hips 35"
- Approx. inseam shown: 3" (7.5 cm)
Fit note: the wide waistband is designed to offer a snug, supportive fit at the waist. If you are between sizes and prefer a less compressive feel, consider sizing up.
Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle; wash with like colors.
- Turn shorts inside out before washing to protect the outer face and any prints.
- Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach and fabric softeners (they reduce moisture-wicking and damage elastane).
- Zip any pockets and fasten closures to prevent snagging.
- Line dry or tumble dry on low. High heat shortens elastane life—avoid hot dryers and high-heat ironing.
- Do not dry clean unless the care label specifically allows it.
- Rinse promptly after contact with sunscreen, oils or chlorinated water to avoid staining or fabric breakdown.
- Store folded rather than hanging for long periods to prevent the waistband from stretching out.
Quick fixes: remove small pills with a fabric shaver, spot-clean makeup/deodorant marks with a gentle detergent, and reshape the waistband while damp to maintain its contour.
Style tips
- Workout: Pair with a supportive sports bra or fitted tank and your favorite running shoes for a streamlined training look.
- Athleisure: Tuck a relaxed tee or wear a cropped hoodie over the shorts; add low-profile sneakers or slides for casual outings.
- Layering: Use the shorts under a longline shirt, oversized button-down or lightweight jacket for transitional weather.
- Color & proportion: High-waist shorts pair well with cropped or tucked tops—monochrome outfits visually elongate the legs.
- Accessories: Try a minimalist belt bag or cap to keep the sporty look modern; ankle socks and chunky trainers add an on-trend edge.
- For modest coverage: Choose a longer inseam or wear compression shorts underneath.
