Less is More: The 7 Best Yoga Shorts for Women! (2021)

If you’re worried about showing off a little too much skin, check out these long yoga shorts from Baleaf.

Falling just above the knee, these yoga shorts for women feature a muffin-top-preventing high waistband, moisture-wicking fabric, and incredibly affordable price point! 

On the other end of the length spectrum we have these super stylish short yoga shots from CRZ Yoga.

Although there may not be much that meets the eye, literally, these yoga shorts still feature an anti-drop waistband, hidden pockets for essentials, and flat-lock seams for chafe-free comfort! 

These days, most yoga shorts are going to have the basics: moisture-wicking fabric, hidden pockets, minimal seams, and so on. 

Everlane’s yoga shorts have all this and something most other options lack. 

What’s this bonus feature, you ask? 

How about the knowledge that you’re helping save the planet while working out, as the Everlane yoga shorts are made with 58% recycled nylon! 

What separates the Beyond Yoga shorts is the brand’s proprietary, and technically-marvelous “Spacedye” fabric. 

The Spacedye fabric’s essential characteristics are quick-drying, moisture-wicking, shape retention, and enabling maximum range of motion. 

In other words, everything you need from the best yoga shorts!

Although I love these Nike shorts for yoga, the reality is they are among the best shorts for any workout!

Featuring mesh panels for breathability, ergonomic flat seams, and a flat elastic waist, these shorts will have you looking and feeling great every time you work up a sweat! 

The unfortunate reality is that most yoga shorts are made with a slightly uncomfortable and rigid fabric to achieve the moisture-wicking and compression traits that workout shorts typically demand. 

I don’t know how they do it, but these FP Movement yoga shorts feel like cotton.

I would be super comfortable just wearing these yoga shots to lounge around, and I truly couldn’t say that of many other workout shorts!

Alo has become one of the hottest yoga brands recently, and these biker shorts exemplify this popularity perfectly. 

Made with a double-knit fabric that feels like a second skin, these shorts also feature flatlock seams, an elastic waistband, and a naturally anti-microbial finish! 

In other words, these biker shorts really let you put the pedal to the metal during your workout!
