Yoga Shorts Frequently Asked Questions

Is it OK to wear shorts to yoga?

Definitely. Many people prefer shorts to long leggings or tights when they go to yoga class. Especially for hot yoga or in warmer weather, women's yoga shorts are a comfortable choice that allows for full movement. If you wear loose-fitting athletic shorts, be sure to include briefs or short tights underneath for full coverage in inversions.

What are yoga shorts made of?

Yoga shorts for women are typically made from a blend of synthetic fabrics to prioritise comfort, breathability and movement. Polyester is popular because it's lightweight, durable and moisture-wicking. Elastane is known for its incredible stretch and elasticity. But elastane itself doesn't provide much structure or support, so it's usually blended with other fibres. Some yoga shorts blend in cotton for a softer feel against the skin. However, pure cotton isn't ideal for yoga because it absorbs sweat without wicking it away, which can leave you feeling damp and uncomfortable.

Can you use running shorts for yoga?

Running shorts might work in a pinch for yoga, but there are some drawbacks. Running shorts tend to be shorter than yoga shorts, which means they can be revealing during poses like Downward-Facing Dog or lunges. Running shorts are designed for efficient straight-line motion, where yoga involves a wider range of movement, including twisting, bending and inversions. Running shorts might not offer enough compression or support for these poses, or they might bunch up. Yoga shorts for women offer a comfortable fit and good coverage.
