Women's Running Shorts for Everyday Training

From steady road miles to treadmill sessions and weekend long runs, women's running shorts need to feel comfortable without restricting your stride. Shop lightweight running shorts from Nike, adidas, ASICS, New Balance and PUMA, with breathable fabrics, secure waistbands and different fits for everyday training.

Relaxed running shorts offer freedom around the thighs, while fitted and high-waisted styles provide closer coverage. Choose shorter 3-inch running shorts for a minimal feel or longer 5-inch and 7-inch designs when you prefer additional coverage.

Moisture-wicking fabrics, adjustable waistbands and lightweight stretch materials make these versatile options for regular training, gym sessions and warmer weather.

Women's 2-in-1 Running Shorts and Lined Shorts

For runners who prefer additional coverage and support, women's 2-in-1 running shorts combine a lightweight outer layer with fitted inner shorts. The close-fitting liner helps limit skin-on-skin rubbing, making these styles particularly appealing for longer runs and marathon preparation.

Brief-lined running shorts offer a lighter alternative, with breathable inner support and greater airflow during warmer sessions.

Shop women's lined running shorts in different lengths, including high-waisted designs and fitted styles that stay comfortably in place as the distance increases.

Women's Split Running Shorts for Race Day

When the pace increases, lightweight construction and freedom of movement become priorities. Women's split running shorts feature higher-cut side seams, allowing greater movement through the thighs during faster strides.

Shop lightweight racing shorts and split-leg designs for track sessions, interval training, 5K races and marathons. Quick-drying fabrics, minimal liners and streamlined cuts help keep excess material to a minimum.

From adidas Adizero racing shorts to lightweight Nike performance styles, find race-day clothing designed around unrestricted movement.

Women's Running Shorts with Pockets

Storage becomes increasingly useful during longer runs. Women's running shorts with pockets provide space for essentials such as keys, cards and energy gels, with zipped compartments and stretch waistband pockets available across selected designs.

High-waisted running shorts can offer additional storage around the waistband, while fitted running shorts may feature thigh pockets that keep smaller items close to the body.
