BMJL 2.5" Women's Athletic Shorts, High-Waisted with Zip Pocket
Product description
Some workouts call for room to move, others make secure storage and coverage just as important. BMJL’s high-waisted athletic shorts bring those needs together with a split outer layer and a built-in liner.
The quick-dry fabric blends 90% polyester and 10% spandex, while the wide elastic waistband gives the shorts a comfortable, supportive feel during movement.

A longer back, dolphin hem, and left-side zip pocket add practical details for runs, gym sessions, and everyday activity. What makes this design useful across different workouts? It pairs an open-feeling outer layer with an inner layer for coverage.
Key specifications



- Type: Women's athletic shorts
- Length: 2.5"
- Fabric: 90% polyester, 10% spandex
- Design: High waist, elastic wide waistband, split outer layer, built-in liner, longer back
- Pocket: Left-side zip pocket
The double-layer construction is designed to support movement: the split outer layer allows a wider range of motion, and the inner layer provides elastic support and coverage. The quick-dry fabric is intended to help you stay comfortable while exercising. A zip pocket keeps small essentials close, its fit for a phone can depend on the phone's size.

Everyday use
These shorts are suited to running, jogging, gym workouts, yoga, cycling, tennis, volleyball, and other active plans. The side split gives your legs room to move, while the longer back provides additional coverage compared with the front. Wear them for a training session, a walk, or an active summer day when you want a lightweight-feeling short with a built-in liner.



Buyer feedback frequently highlights the comfortable waistband, flattering fit, and longer back coverage. Opinions on sizing and the pocket are mixed, so use the brand size chart to choose a fit and consider your phone's dimensions when deciding what to carry.
Usage tips

Check your body measurements against the brand size chart before ordering. The listed full length is measured down the back from the top of the waistband, and the front is shorter. If you have a curvy shape or fall between sizes, the sizing guidance recommends considering the larger size. For machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water, hang drying or using a low-heat dryer are the suggested options.
What to clarify



What is the fabric blend? The shorts are made from 90% polyester and 10% spandex. For machine washing, use a gentle cold-water cycle, then hang dry or use low heat.
How should I choose a size? Compare your body measurements with the brand size chart. The back length is measured from the waistband, and the front is shorter. If you are curvy or between sizes, the guidance suggests considering a size up.
Will the zip pocket hold a phone? The pocket is on the left side and is designed to hold a phone. A larger phone may be too wide, so its fit depends on the phone's size.
Is it worth it?
For workouts that call for freedom of movement, a built-in liner, and a secure place for a small essential, this design brings those details into one pair of shorts. The high waist, split outer layer, quick-dry fabric, and longer back make it a practical choice for running, gym training, and other active routines.
