Baleaf Women's High Waisted Bermuda Athletic Shorts - Relaxed Fit

Our review of these Baleaf Bermuda shorts finds them best suited for women who want comfortable, modest workout bottoms with a relaxed, wide leg that does not ride up. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a supportive 3.5' high waistband and breathable, stretchy fabric that moves with you during runs, gym sessions, or lounging. Fit is forgiving thanks to the relaxed design and a slightly longer above-the-knee inseam, making these shorts a practical choice for those who prefer coverage without sacrificing mobility.

Key Features

• High waist: The 3.5' wide waistband provides a supportive, stay-put fit during activity or everyday wear.
• Relaxed wide leg: The wide, relaxed leg design prevents ride-up and keeps movement unrestricted when running or stretching.
• Breathable fabric: The solid blend (87% polyester, 13% spandex) and heather blend offer quick-dry breathability for workouts and warmer days.
• Stretch and coverage: Stretchy, non see-through material ensures confidence while bending, squatting, or doing yoga.
• Practical length: Above-the-knee inseam (7' for XS-L, 7.125' for XL-3XL) gives modest coverage suited to multiple activities.
• Easy care: Machine or hand wash cold and tumble dry low for simple maintenance after regular use.

Who It's For

These shorts are aimed at active women who prefer a relaxed fit and modest length for running, training, yoga, or casual wear. The supportive high waist and non see-through fabric make them a good match for those who want confidence during movement and a flattering silhouette without compression-only styling.

Those seeking very tight, compression-style performance shorts or a technical fabric focused solely on speed workouts might look elsewhere; this design emphasizes comfort, coverage, and everyday versatility rather than race-day minimalism.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Breathable, quick-dry blends that are stretchy and not see-through.
