5-inch, 3-inch and split running shorts with pockets

Women's Running Shorts

Style Inspiration

Our women's running shorts come in three cuts, so you can match the short to the run. The fitted LuxeForm 5-inch sculpting short stays put on long runs and helps prevent inner-thigh chafing, and the 3-inch LuxeForm mini gives you the same snug hold with more freedom. The Cheeky Flyaway split short is our lightest pair, with a 2 to 3-inch inseam, open side slits and an optional seamless liner for race day, track sessions and hot summer miles.

Running shorts with pockets

Every pair has a place for your essentials, so you can leave the running belt at home. LuxeForm shorts have a full-size secret back pocket that holds your phone, cards and keys. Flyaway shorts have a hidden waistband pocket for a key, card or gel.

How to choose your running shorts

  • Long runs and marathon training: pick the 5-inch length for coverage that does not ride up.
  • Racing and speed work: go for split running shorts for a full, open stride.
  • Treadmill, gym and cross-training: the 3-inch mini moves from your run to your lift.
  • Want a liner? Choose the Black Flyaway with the built-in liner, or browse our 2-in-1 running shorts.

Fit and sizing

Sizes run XS to L. Flyaway shorts are loose and flowy, so size down for a closer fit. LuxeForm shorts are fitted and true to size. Prefer more compression? See our spandex running shorts and biker shorts with pockets. Complete your kit with a running sports bra and polarized running sunglasses.

Frequently asked questions

It is your choice. Our Flyaway split shorts come with a seamless built-in liner or with no liner, so you can pick the coverage you like. The liner is moisture-wicking and stays dry and comfortable from a 5K to a marathon. Our 5-inch and 3-inch sculpting shorts are a fitted style worn without a separate liner.
Our Flyaway split shorts have a 2 to 3-inch visible inseam with open side slits for full stride range of motion. For more coverage, our sculpting shorts come in 5-inch and 3-inch lengths with a fitted, stay-put feel. The split style is ideal for road races, track workouts and hot days; the sculpting lengths suit longer runs, gym sessions and anyone who prefers a snug fit.
Yes, every pair has a pocket. LuxeForm 5-inch and 3-inch shorts have a full-size secret back pocket that fits your phone, cards and keys. Flyaway split shorts have a hidden waistband pocket that holds a key, card or gel without bouncing.
No. The open side slits on the Flyaway shorts keep fabric away from your inner thighs on every stride, and the Black pair comes with an optional seamless liner.
Running shorts are lighter and shorter, prioritizing airflow and stride freedom. Biker shorts have a longer 5-inch inseam and a compression fit that provides thigh coverage and muscle support for strength training and multi-sport use. Both work well for running, and your preference depends on whether you like a flowy feel or a compressive, second-skin fit.
For long runs and marathons, most runners prefer the LuxeForm 5-inch short because the fitted length stays in place and helps prevent inner-thigh chafing over many miles. If you like a lighter, airier feel, the Cheeky Flyaway split short with the built-in liner is our race-day pick. The LuxeForm back pocket fits your phone, and the Flyaway waistband pocket holds a gel or key.
