HOW IT ALL STARTED

It all started when, while working as a saleswoman in a chain of specialized running stores, I realized that I wasn’t the only one constantly adjusting my shorts because they kept riding up.

Despite various alternatives—such as two-in-one shorts and looser models—I never found shorts that truly suited me. As a result, my thighs suffered, and I ended up with irritations and chafing in the groin area. I was really fed up with spending my training sessions getting annoyed with my shorts instead of focusing on my workout.

That’s when the idea came to me: to create THE PERFECT SHORT, for myself and for all the women who experience these irritations during their sports activities!

I envisioned a model slightly longer than the “7-inch” shorts offered by major brands, featuring an integrated silicone band at the bottom for optimal support.

The first prototype stayed in place perfectly, but an overly tight seam created a garrote effect, which wasn’t very flattering. Beyond comfort, I wanted to design a piece where women truly feel good, and we all know that includes a flattering cut and a compressive fabric.

I also added several practical pockets:

  • A zippered back pocket for a phone or a small flask
  • Two small side pockets for keys or gels
  • A large pocket on the right side for the phone

And finally, an essential detail: an internal elastic band for a perfect fit at the waist.

Three months later, after the initial trials, I can guarantee you that this is the only pair of shorts I can stand!
