Shorts for every kind of session.

Different workouts ask different things from your shorts. Run long in In Pace, train hard in In Tempo or slow things down in In Motion. Choose fitted compression or a loose woven style, with lengths from 8cm (3 inches) to 18cm (7 inches) depending on how much coverage you like. Most styles are high-rise, with different levels of support and pocket storage depending on how you move.

Designed for

Gym and trainRunPilates and yogaEverydayLow impact High impact

Start with what you're doing, then choose your length. In Pace is built for running. In Tempo gives you firm support for gym and hybrid training. In Motion is made for pilates, yoga and studio sessions. Choose 10cm (4 inches) for less coverage or 14cm (5.5 inches) for more. At 18cm (7 inches), you'll get the most thigh coverage. Prefer a loose fit?  The In Tempo Woven Short is 8cm (3 inches) with an in-built liner.

A fitted bike short works with an oversized tee before and after pilates. For training, pair your shorts with the Ribbed Cardio 2-1 Tank. Prefer a looser fit for the rest of the day? Try the In Tempo Woven Short. The Ribbed Cardio Long Sleeve 1/2 Zip goes over the top for the walk in and the cool-down. Black works with almost anything, while Espresso and Stone Brown bring a softer look.

More about women's shorts

Every pair starts with how you'll move in it. Soft fabrics bring comfort to lower-impact sessions, while firmer support is designed for higher-intensity training. Running styles feel lighter over distance. Across Nimble's women's shorts, you'll find fitted and loose styles, different levels of support and lengths from 8cm to 18cm. Details change with the job they're made for, too - from five-pocket storage and bonded seams on In Pace to firm CompressLuxe Eco in In Tempo and buttery-soft StudioLuxe in In Motion. Because the right shorts aren't just about how they look. They're about forgetting about them once you start moving.

They're designed around different types of movement. In Tempo uses firmer CompressLuxe Eco for gym, strength and hybrid training. In Pace uses lighter-compression FreeLuxe, with storage designed around longer-distance running. For everyday, pull an oversized tee over fitted bike shorts and get on with your day. The In Motion Bike Short 18cm gives you more coverage.

Different styles use different constructions to help them stay comfortably in place as you move. Fitted styles include stay-put hems, while In Pace Short 14cm uses a stitched hem designed for distance. Fit can also vary by style, so check the individual product page when choosing your pair.

Choose based on how much coverage you prefer. The 8cm and 10cm styles sit higher on the thigh, 14cm gives you more coverage and 18cm is the longest fitted length in the range. The In Tempo Woven Short has a loose 8cm outer with an in-built liner underneath.

The In Tempo Woven Short does. It's Nimble's loose 2-in-1 option, with an in-built liner underneath the 8cm woven outer, so you don't need to add another fitted short underneath.

Several Nimble shorts give your phone a place to go. The In Pace Short 14cm has five pockets for long runs, including secure phone storage, while selected In Tempo and In Motion shorts also have pockets designed to carry your phone. Check each style to find the pocket setup that suits how you train.

Start with  In Tempo. CompressLuxe Eco gives the fitted styles firm compression for gym sessions, strength work and hybrid training. Prefer a loose fit instead? The In Tempo Woven Short has an in-built liner underneath.

The In Motion styles. StudioLuxe feels buttery soft with gentle support for Pilates, yoga and lower-intensity studio sessions.

FreeLuxe is light compression and barely there, made for distance running.MoveLite is buttery soft and lightweight for lower-intensity days. CompressLuxe Eco feels cool to touch, with firm compression for high-intensity training. The shorts comparison guide sets them side by side.

Start with your usual Nimble size and check the size guide for measurements. Fit varies across the range, from close-fitting compression styles to the loose In Tempo Woven Short, so check the fit notes on the individual product page too.

A high-rise waistband gives you more coverage through the middle and is used across most Nimble shorts. If you prefer a waistband that sits lower, the In Tempo Run Short 10cm has a mid-rise fit. You may also see high-rise shorts described as high-waisted.
