Tek Gear Bermuda Shorts for Women — Versatile Active Comfort
We designed these bermuda shorts to give you coverage and freedom wherever your day takes you. The mid-thigh inseam flatters every body type while the moisture-wicking stretch fabric keeps you dry through hot yoga sessions, brisk neighborhood walks, or errands across town.
The polyester-spandex blend we use in these bermuda shorts stretches in four directions so you can lunge, squat, and bend without restriction. The moisture-wicking finish pulls sweat away from your skin and spreads it across the fabric surface where it evaporates quickly.
Sizing that fits real bodies
We offer these shorts in six sizes from XS through XXL, with each size graded to accommodate natural waist and hip proportions. The wide elastic waistband distributes pressure evenly so there’s no pinching, and the internal drawcord gives you fine-tune control when you need it.
The 9-inch inseam hits mid-thigh on most body types, providing coverage without restricting your stride. If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit, we recommend sizing up — the drawcord will secure the waist while preserving the relaxed feel. For a closer fit that highlights your silhouette, stay true to size or consult our sizing guide for hip and waist measurements.
Pockets built for real life
Both side pockets are cut deep enough to hold a standard smartphone without the corner peeking out. We angled the pocket openings slightly forward so your hand lands in them naturally when you’re standing or walking.
The pocket bags are constructed from the same moisture-wicking fabric as the body of the shorts, so they won’t turn into sweat traps. Reinforced bartacks at the top of each pocket prevent tearing even when you’re carrying keys, a card wallet, or energy gels on a long run.

Common questions about tek gear bermuda shorts
They generally run true to size, though some customers with narrower waists prefer to size down and use the internal drawcord for a secure fit. If you’re between sizes or want a looser feel for casual wear, sizing up works well. Our sizing chart provides specific waist and hip measurements for each size to help you choose.
You can wear them for running, walking, cycling, and studio workouts. The moisture-wicking fabric and flatlock seams make them suitable for any activity that involves sweat and repetitive motion. Many runners prefer a shorter inseam, but if you want more coverage or chafe easily, the 9-inch length works well for distances up to a half marathon.
The wide elastic waistband is designed to resist rolling, but if you find it shifts during high-movement activities, tighten the internal drawcord slightly before you start. Wearing the shorts at your natural waist rather than lower on your hips also helps keep the band flat and secure.
The fabric is opaque even when wet or stretched during deep squats and lunges. We use a tightly woven polyester-spandex blend with enough density to prevent transparency. Light-colored versions like heather gray maintain coverage just as well as darker shades.
Machine wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle, turned inside out to protect the fabric finish. Skip fabric softener since it can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce performance. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air-dry for longest lifespan. Avoid bleach and high-heat settings.
The side pockets are open without zippers or closures. They’re cut deep and angled to keep items secure during movement. If you need a zippered pocket for valuables during intense workouts, consider pairing these shorts with a small running belt or armband.
While the fabric is durable, chlorine can degrade spandex fibers over time and cause colors to fade faster. If you plan to wear them in the pool regularly, rinse them in fresh water immediately after swimming and wash them as soon as possible. For frequent pool use, dedicated swim shorts will last longer.
