Leader Booty Shorts

The mark of a good booty short is one that hugs your ass just right, and the Leader Booty Shorts are on our radar for a reason.

You’ve got an elastic waistband with a drawstring waist, so your fit is up to you. Naturally, this short should fall just at your waist. Unlike a marathon short, this pair isn’t scalloped, so that tension can be held on your butt itself. You’ve got pockets, thankfully, on each side. For the branding-averse, all you have branding-wise is a tiny logo on the left leg.

Nylon shorts like these are great for workouts that would otherwise leave less breathable shorts soaking wet: a long run on a hot day, that ass-kicking HIIT class, and so on. Alternatively, you’ve got a great short to wear over your swim briefs, around the house, or even out — gotta let that butt breathe. Squat day anyone?

• Mid-rise fit — sits just at your natural waistline
