Frequently Asked Questions For Women's Athletic Shorts
Inseam lengths in this collection range from 3 inches to 8 inches. Shorter 3-inch inseams like the StretchTech Run Shorts are great for running and maximum range of motion, while longer 6- to 8-inch biker shorts offer more coverage and are ideal for cycling, yoga, or layering under dresses.
These shorts work just as well outside the gym as in it. Pair them with a tank top or sporty tee for errands, casual outings, or lounging — the variety of colors, patterns, and relaxed fits makes them suitable for everyday use.
Biker shorts offer a fitted, compressive feel with longer inseams (typically 5–8 inches) that stay in place during cycling or strength training. Run shorts have a looser, lighter fit with shorter inseams (around 3 inches) for unrestricted leg movement during runs and cardio.
Old Navy offers a full range of coordinating pieces. Browse women's activewear tops for matching tanks and tees, or check out women's activewear bottoms for leggings and other options to round out your workout wardrobe.
