FAQ's
While active shorts are designed primarily for performance, they've also become a genuine part of everyday casual style, making it easy to transition from the gym to running errands without needing to change. For the gym or training, pair your active shorts with a performance tee or singlet and a supportive pair of training shoes, choosing a lined short if you prefer built-in support for high-intensity movement. For running, a lightweight, shorter length paired with a moisture-wicking tee and proper running shoes will keep you comfortable and unrestricted over longer distances.
Although they can sometimes look similar, active shorts and board shorts are built for very different purposes and perform quite differently as a result. Active shorts are made from lightweight, often moisture-wicking synthetic fabrics designed specifically for movement and breathability during exercise, and they typically feature a shorter, more athletic cut along with a secure waistband built to stay in place during activity. Board shorts, by comparison, are made from a more durable, water-resistant fabric designed to hold up in water, with a looser fit and a longer length that isn't built with performance or breathability during exercise in mind.
Of course! They are designed specifically with running and gym movements in mind. They have breathable fabrics that wick away sweat and stretch so you can workout without any worry.
