Base Shorts - Natural
Sits high on the waist and stays there with no pinch points. Sculpted and smooth without restriction, holding shape through Pilates, training, running, the warm-up and the walk home.
Finishes between mid and lower thigh. Each size is cut slightly longer than the one below, so the shorts finish at about the same point on the leg across the range. Knitted to hold you firmly, they come up slightly on the smaller side. If you are between sizes, take the larger one. You keep the hold, with a little more room to move.

The cellulose is tested for antioxidant activity. Dermatologically tested, rated Excellent. Finished with a moisture-wicking treatment derived from micro-algae.
