Women's Running Shorts

What styles of running shorts are there?

Running shorts come loose, split or close-fitting: loose and split styles maximise airflow and freedom, while a fitted short or mid-tight offers support and stays smooth under everything. The one you pick comes down to the feel you like and how far you are going that day. Many runners own a couple of styles for different runs. A supportive, longer-length option, the women's running mid tights are smooth and stay in place longer during efforts.

How do you stop chafing in running shorts?

Chafing comes down to fabric and fit, so choose shorts with a soft liner or pair them with seamless underwear, keep everything snug rather than loose where skin rubs, and add a little anti-chafe balm on hot, long runs. Quick-drying fabric that does not hold sweat helps a great deal too. Small tweaks make a big difference over the miles. The women's running underwear range holds seamless, chafe-free base pieces to wear beneath them.

What do you wear when it is too cold for shorts?

As the temperature drops, close-fitting leggings keep your legs warm while still moving freely, bridging the gap before full trousers come out. They trap heat, wick sweat and layer neatly under shorts on the coldest days, so nothing feels bulky. Switch across as the mornings cool. When shorts feel too cool, the women's running leggings range keeps your legs warm on chilly runs.

What should you wear for running in winter?

Once winter really bites, warm running trousers give the most cover and hold the cold at bay while still breathing, so you never feel clammy on a long, chilly run. Many runners move from shorts to leggings to trousers as the season turns, adjusting as it gets colder. Let the weather set the pace of the change. Once winter bites, the women's running trousers range wraps up the warmest bottoms for the season.
