An unlikely trend to emerge this spring has undoubtedly been sweatshorts. Once it became too hot for us all to wear sweatpants every day, we didn't want to sacrifice comfort, so sweatshorts emerged as the It item that everyone wants to lounge in or take their social-distancing walks in. Just take one scroll through your Instagram feed, and you'll get a reminder of just how popular the trend has become (and very quickly, we might add).
One of the many great things about the sweatshorts trend is that it can be found for cheap quite easily, especially if you search Amazon. There, you'll find brands like fan-favorite Champion, Soffe (remember those?), Amazon's in-house brands, and more gems. Keep scrolling to shop the pairs that I think are the best, along with some styling inspiration. (And I consider myself kind of a sweatshorts expert at this point, so you're in good hands.)
Wear this mood-boosting pair with all of your neutral tees.
Can't go wrong with Champion.
These are highly rated.
If you want more of a polished look, buy these.
Everyone loves a good dolphin cut.
This longer pair comes in every color you could possibly want.
The drawstring on these is so cute.
The sweet little ties at the hems make these stand out.
I don't know about you, but I practically lived in Soffe shorts in middle and high school.
These look like sweatpants that were cut off, and that's why I love them.
Such a good length.
These are my favorite of the Champion sweatshorts bunch.
Another random highly rated pair for your consideration.
You should probably hurry because these are flying out of stock.
Splendid's knits are ridiculously soft, so there's that.
