Men's Workout & Gym Shorts

Men's Gym Shorts for Lifting, Cardio, and Every Day

Our men's gym shorts work for lifting, cardio, and everything in between, so you don't need a different pair for each workout. The fit is athletic but not tight. Call them training shorts, running shorts, or gym shorts. They’re great for any type of workout.

These men's workout shorts are made with stretchy spandex and poly fabric, available in 5-inch inseam lengths. The shorter length works well for high-intensity training or everyday wear. When it gets cooler, pair them with a graphic tee or a casual hoodie.

Men's Workout Shorts FAQs

What are the best shorts for gym workouts?

Look for lightweight fabric that lets you move freely and doesn't bunch up. Our workout shorts are made for lifting, high-intensity training, and cardio, and they stay comfortable while you do it.

Are Mad Hatter men's workout shorts good for running and other activities?

Yes. They're made for many kinds of training, including running, cardio, circuits, and lifting. The fabric is light and breathable, so one pair covers your whole week. Check out our men's casual apparel for pieces built the same way.

What size are Mad Hatter men's shorts, and do they run true to fit?

They use standard men's sizing and run true to size for an athletic fit. If you like a looser fit, size up. Check the size chart on each product page, since fit can vary a little by style.

How do you wash gym shorts without ruining the mesh?

Wash them cold and skip fabric softener, which can make the fabric less breathable over time. Line dry when you can, since heat wears out elastic waistbands faster.

Who are men's workout shorts best for?

Anyone who works out and then wears the same shorts for the rest of the day. Not sure where to start? Shop our popular products to find the go-to option most guys land on first.
