Chubbies Workout & Athletic Shorts – Not Just for Roundhouse Kicks

Comfortable, flexible, aerodynamic and most of all utterly radical. Chubbies gym shorts are everything a short should be and MORE.

As your purveyors of thigh freedom and proper-length men’s shorts, we couldn’t just stop at swim trunks and casual shorts. No. That wouldn’t be enough.

We said to ourselves “You know basketball players, Olympic sprinters, & beach volleyball players in the 80s? They looked super cool doing athletic things in short workout shorts. We should bring those to the masses.” And we did.

And we did it In a variety of inseams to match whatever your proper length athletic short is. Whether you want 4-inch workout shorts, 5.5” workout shorts, or 7” workout shorts, we got you. However, if you’re looking for that early 2000s baggy below-the-knee basketball short trend, then we probably don’t got you on that.

Once you’ve picked the perfect length workout short, your next question is probably, “Do you wear anything under gym shorts?”

And honestly, you should probably wear something underneath. That’s why we offer a selection of compression-lined gym shorts. Chafing at the gym is never fun, so we designed perfect compression liners that hug and support all of the places that need to be hugged and supported. We also carry some styles that are unlined as well, so you can make the decision on what to wear underneath.

Below you’ll find some more in-depth information about our workout shorts so you can compare them to each other and figure out which short suits your gym short needs the best.

Ultimate Training Shorts

Our most technical short, just got more technical-er...or something like that. These can do it all: they’re stretchy but durable. Supportive but non-restrictive. And best of all, so buttery-soft that you’ll want to work out longer & harder than ever.

Available in 4” & 5.5” inseams

Best For:

  • - Training: HIIT, CrossFit, powerlifting, upper body day for the 3rd day in a row.
  • - Running: errands, wild, on the treadmill, up that hill.
  • - Pickleball/Tennis: Dink your opponent to defeat.
  • - Rock Climbing: indoor or outdoor, the number of pockets on these guys will help.
  • - Karate: In your basement, of course.
  • - Biking/Spinning: Outdoors, in a studio, or in the comfort of your home. Regardless, you're going to look good out of the saddle.

Features:

  • 4-Way Stretch Fabric:
      - A polyester/spandex blend that is so dang stretchy, you’ll think we made it out of a toy from the 90s.
  • Moisture-Wicking Compression Liner:
      - An improved polyester/spandex anti-cafe liner with an improved fit for comfort, it's more supportive than the outer layer, oh, and antimicrobial, so it’ll keep not just the sweat away, but also the sweat smell.
  • Double Phone Pocket:
      - Keep your phone secure during any activity with phone pockets built into the compression liner, so you can be amphibious...wait, amphibious? We mean ambidextrous.
  • UPDATED Side Slits:
      - We’ve built our foundation on letting your thighs breathe & these should help. No more shorts getting snagged on squats or high-intensity movements.
  • NEW Double-Layered Waistband w/ Drawstring:
      - New combined structure with an internal drawcord for extra support. This provides a secure, safe fit that won’t slip or rise as you sweat and move your way through the day.
  • On-seam Side Pockets:
      - Both provide plenty of storage for all of your trinkets, but with a very clean, minimalistic look.

  • - Weightlifting: Squats, benching, curls, more curls, MORE CURLS.
  • - Tennis: Styling the court from line to line (even great for Pickleball).
  • - Biking/Spinning: Just like our Ultimate Training Shorts, all you need is a fresh towel & you’re ready to ride.
  • - Lounging: In addition to all your workout short needs, these bad boys are perfect for just spending a weekend on the couch.

Features:

  • Boxer Brief Compression Liner:
      - An anti-chafe liner that is also buttery soft to keep you comfortable, breathable, & supported all day long.
  • Zippered Back Pocket:
      - If you wear these throughout the day, you’ll need a place to throw your wallet or cash. This back pocket is sturdy enough to hold all that.
  • Elastic Waistband w/ Drawstring:
      - Create a personalized, perfect fit with the elastic waistband and capped internal drawstrings.
  • 4-Way Stretch Fabric:
      - Do it all in these—Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge.

  • - Hiking: Ones that may involve chasing waterfalls.
  • - Basketball: Dominating in a game of 3-on-3 both in or out of the pool.
