We're sorry, but we’re currently out of stock of this item. Unlike fast fashion brands, we don’t keep bulk rolls of fabric for rapid restocking - because if for some reason those aren’t used up, we will have wasted CO2, water and other resources unnecessarily, creating more waste our planet doesn’t need.

In a Boody first, we've developed a brand new fabric blending two organic and sustainable yarns to bring you a new workout short. Organic Bamboo gives this active tight lightweight breathability and a flexible stretch while the Organic Cotton rounds the fabric off to create an ultra-comfortable fit.  

Get motivated with our soft and comfy Motivate 5" High-Waist Shorts. Featuring two side pockets, curved panel shaping on the side leg and flat seams with cover-stitching, these short tights are both durable and stretchy. Made from organically-grown bamboo and organic cotton, these breathable bike shorts have a high-waist design with a mid-thigh length and come complete with a wide yoke waistband and a handy hidden pocket. 

Boody is naturally breathable, antibacterial, thermoregulating and hypoallergenic for pure comfort all day long.

Great shorts

These are my go-to shorts for work outs, runs and walks. The material is quite thick, which is what I want when it comes to doing squats, etc. The pockets are great for putting my phone in when I go for walks.
