Elevate High Waist Pocket Shorts

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a woman in possession of a mobile phone, must be in want of a pocket. Enter the activewear shorts with practical panache - an answer to the age-old question: ‘Where do I put my phone?’ Cue applause. These high-waisted numbers combine a body-sculpting fit with a rather clever V-shaped waistband that makes your core look ready for prime time, not prime rib. This snazzy cut does wonders for the waist and, yes, creates that much sought-after illusion of obliques (without requiring you to actually do any). The waistband is wide and reassuringly supportive too - nothing’s rolling or folding here unless it’s yoga mats or Pilates balls.

These shorts boast dual side pockets that are unassuming until you casually pop your phone in one (no coat needed to stash valuables at brunch again). They’re made from polyamide and elastane with moderate stretch, which means comfort for days whether you're running sprints or running errands. And who doesn’t love a good squat-proof fabric? These are not see-through at all! Flatlock seams help prevent chafing so there’s no risking friction burn on the afternoon walk. Simply chuck them in the wash and tumble-dry for convenience’s sake and…voilà! Ready for another round of whatever life throws at you.
