Accelerate 3" High-Rise Running Short

Sale price A$54
A$0/
Regular price $75

Your favourite running shorts just got a higher rise, giving you that barely-there Accelerate feel with extra coverage. The Black Accelerate 3” High-Rise Running Short is for anyone who wants that ‘wearing nothing at all’ feeling while still staying locked in for runs, jogs, hikes or walks.

Once you start clocking kilometres, that less-is-more design really starts to show up. You can take every stride without being held back, with a 3-inch inseam and high side split that cut back on the bulk, and light, sweat-wicking fabric that keeps you nice and cool. There’s no heavy fabric making you feel heavy or sweaty as you pick up the pace, so you can open up your stride without any extra fabric catching or clinging.

You also get added coverage from the 5.5cm added through the front rise, giving you more fabric through your lower stomach without adding any bulk to your legs. It lets you keep the barely-there feeling, but with a little more security. That extra coverage doesn’t mean heat, either. We’ve added vented mesh to let air move through the waistband, with an external drawstring that lets you adjust your fit before you head out.

The little features also matter just as much. Bonded seams and raw cut edges keep everything smooth to cut down on rubbing, while a hidden back pocket gives you a handy spot for a key or gel or two. They’re a run staple for a reason.

Reviews

The best shorts 😍

"Absolutely LOVE these shorts! I wear them all the time. They’re so comfortable and flattering. My only criticism is that the material is quite light and thin, and unfortunately the stitching ripped when the shorts caught on the edge of my car. I’d love to see the same style made with slightly more durable material."

The best shorts you will ever wear.

"The best running short! I al a size 14-16 and wear these in an XXL. The cut of the short is both freeing and covering for a beautiful flow and performance. The fabric is light, no texture or rubbing making these one of the most comfortable pairs of shorts I own. I allllways get compliments too. I’m an hourglass shape with a mum tum so I prefer to size up one size to help with personal preference on aesthetics."

Cutesy Run Outfit

"The fabric is great. The design is very convenient for an active lifestyle and a runner myself with a touch of girly style. Love the color!"

— Mary C. (5/5)

Amazing but shreds at the bottom

"I love them! My big concern with them is that I have worn two different pairs twice, and they are like shredding at the bottom. I washed them without fabric softener on delicate/cold water and air dried them (I air dry most of my clothes) and it still did it, after only two wears. They are quite expensive too so that’s not great"

— Alyssa (3/5)

Great shorts. Color not as vibrate as picture

"Accelerate shorts are the accelerate shorts. Only reason this review is 4 stars is because the pink color is not as vibrant for the female shorts as pictured. Especially that I bought it to match the male shorts for a mixed doubles hyrox there is a definite difference in color between the two."

— Howaida K. (4/5)

Flattering, but pricey

"I love these shorts! They are super flattering. I wore them for my half-marathon and they didn't cause chaffing, the material is light and comfortable. The only downside is the price, $75 for one pair of shorts is quite expensive, which is the only reason why I wouldn't rate 5 stars."

— Julia B. (4/5)

Love this colour!

"This colour is everything! Super light fit, I sized up so that the band wasn’t so tight around my hips as I have a longer torso. Can’t fault them!"

— Brooke H. (5/5)

Great product and experience

"I bought a pair of shorts for me and the wife, plus a top for her. Unfortunately, first set did not fit well, even though were nice products. Exchange was smooth, and hustle free. Next set arrived 10 days after, and everything looks and fit great."

— Roque C. (5/5)

Stepping Outside My Comfort Zone 💗

"I absolutely love my Accelerate 3” High-Rise Running Shorts in Boysenberry/Pink Rose! The comfort, amount of space, texture, and colour combination are everything. I’m usually not one for bright colours, but I wanted to step outside my comfort zone. I originally purchased these as a statement piece to celebrate completing my first half marathon, and honestly, I’ve never looked back! They made the milestone feel even more special, and I’m so happy I went for something outside my usual style. They’re comfortable, practical, and the colour combo is gorgeous. I would definitely purchase more!"

— Josie S. (5/5)

Perfect Set 😍

"Absolutely love this set! 😍 The quality is amazing, and everything is even better than I expected. You can tell a lot of care went into it. I’m beyond happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone considering buying it. Definitely worth it! ❤️"
