CRZ YOGA High Waisted Running Shorts 3 in - Split Breathable Fit

In this review of the CRZ YOGA High Waisted Running Shorts 3 in, the bottom line is simple: these shorts are for runners and gym-goers who want a lightweight, flattering short with a secure high waist and a practical phone pocket. The reviewer found the fabric exceptionally soft and quick-drying, making them comfortable for longer workouts, and the high-rise waistband offers noticeable tummy control. For those prioritizing a sleek look and a built-in liner that usually prevents chafing, these shorts deliver a strong case to buy.

Key Features

• Feathery-fit soft fabric: The material feels weightless and dries quickly, so it stays comfortable through sweaty runs or intense gym sessions.
• High rise waistband: The ultra high waist provides secure coverage and gentle tummy control without digging in during movement.
• Built-in spandex liner: An inner short with anti-slip dots helps reduce riding up and adds modesty for lunges and squats.
• Split dolphin cut: The 3 in shorts with a high split give a greater range of motion for sprinting and tennis while keeping a streamlined silhouette.
• Inner pocket: A discreet inner pocket holds a phone, keys or cards, accommodating larger phones for hands-free runs.
• Quiet, slightly stretchy fabric: The shorts move with the body without the swish-swish sound some technical fabrics make, keeping focus on performance.

Who It's For

These shorts suit women who run, play tennis, or work out at the gym and want a lightweight, high-waisted option with a secure fit. The combination of a high-rise waistband, breathable fabric and a protective liner makes them a good choice for interval running, treadmill sessions and dynamic classes where freedom of movement matters.

Shoppers who need a long inseam or prefer a very compressive athletic short should look elsewhere, as these are a 3 in outer short with a shorter liner and prioritize mobility and a flattering cut over full leg coverage or heavy compression.
