Training Shorts

Training shorts for sportswear programmes needing secure waist construction, practical inseam options and movement through warm-up and session wear.

Black training shorts with elastic drawstring waistband and side pockets

Overview

Product overview

Training shorts support lower-body freedom for gym, field and general training collections. Waistband security, inseam length and pocket decisions define how the short behaves in motion.

They differ from coordinated shorts-set bottoms by standing as a flexible short SKU that can pair with multiple tops across a training range.
