Description
Meet the next generation of our bestselling Breeze Short. We took everything you love about the original version — the light and airy fabric, comfy knit waistband, and incredibly soft liner — and tweaked it with a few performance-minded upgrades.
For the new Bamboo-Lined Active Breeze Short, we moved the secure zip pocket from the back to the side, so you get less bounce and more comfort when you’re doing crunches or yoga on your back. The 5” inseam gives you more coverage without restricting your movement.
