Tennis Short : What is it?
| Tennis shorts do not reach the area below the knees so as not to inhibit movement. They are made of lightweight and breathable fabrics like cotton, polyester, nylon, and Lycra and are loose enough to allow freer movement especially while running. Tennis shorts come in Bermuda, tailored, and skort types and are available in different colors and sizes.

Breathability: Choose tennis shorts made of lightweight and porous polyester that wicks away moisture and dries quickly.
Fit: Choose tennis shorts that are not tight around the crotch area to prevent your skin from chafing. They should not be long enough to inhibit your movements especially when you run. Also, choose tennis shorts with an elastic waistband and drawstring that allow you to adjust the fit according to your preference.
