Women's Gym Shorts Australia

Women's gym shorts have one job: stay where you put them while you squat, sprint and stretch. Every pair here sits high on the waist and is squat-proof. Choose the SYNQ Sculpt Shorts in seamless compression, the neon VIVID Shorts, or the ribbed KNAKRD Original Shorts, the black gym shorts that started the brand.

Before you choose

How do I know what size to order?

Everything here is true to size — take the size you normally wear. Every product page has a size chart, and the fit recommender will confirm it against your measurements if you'd rather check.

Will they go sheer or roll down?

No. Every colourway is squat-tested before it goes on the site, and the high waistband is cut to stay put rather than fold over. If a pair ever behaves otherwise, we want to hear about it.

How long will delivery take?

Order by 2pm (Sydney time) and it’s packed and shipped the same business day. Shipping is free on orders over A$120, and every order is tracked from the moment it leaves us.

What if it doesn't fit?

You have 30 days to send it back and we cover the return postage — so trying a size costs you nothing but the time it takes to repack the satchel.

High waisted gym shorts for women that don't ride up

A high waist that holds through every rep

Nothing ruins a session faster than shorts that roll at the waist or creep up your thighs. All three styles sit high and stay put while you move. The SYNQ Sculpt Shorts use seamless compression, so there are no waistband seams to press into your skin. The VIVID Shorts feel secure without feeling tight. The Original Shorts pair a high waist with soft ribbed fabric and a scrunch detail. Our reviews keep saying the same thing: comfy and squat-proof.

Squat-proof gym shorts, even in bright colours

Lighter shorts are where most brands let you down, so every KNAKRD colourway is squat-tested before it goes on the site. That includes the neon VIVID shades and pale SYNQ colours like Glacier White and Butter Yellow, not just the black pair. SYNQ is our smooth, breathable seamless fabric that holds its shape wear after wear, and the Originals use a ribbed knit that stays opaque. Bend, lunge and stretch without a second thought.

Seamless, neon or ribbed bike shorts

Go for the SYNQ Sculpt Shorts if you want tight gym shorts with a sculpted, seamless feel, in thirteen colours and sizes XS to XL. Choose the VIVID Shorts for four neon colours in S to L. Start with the Original Shorts for classic black scrunch bum bike shorts in S, M and L. Each pair has a matching bra, and a set costs less than buying the pieces separately. Shipping is free over A$120, with free 30-day returns.
