Fabric & Performance Technology

We engineered our bermuda shorts with advanced performance fabrics that work as hard as you do. The proprietary moisture-wicking blend pulls perspiration away from your skin to the fabric surface where it evaporates quickly, keeping you dry during intense workouts.

Four-way stretch construction ensures unrestricted movement in every direction, whether you’re holding a warrior pose or powering through burpees. The durable, abrasion-resistant fabric maintains its shape wash after wash, while the antimicrobial treatment prevents odor-causing bacteria from building up. Built-in UPF 30+ sun protection shields your skin during outdoor training sessions and weekend adventures.

Fit & Sizing Guide

Our CALIA bermuda shorts feature a high-rise cut that sits at your natural waist for secure, flattering coverage. The wide waistband smooths and supports without creating bulk or discomfort during movement.

Finding Your Perfect Fit

We recommend ordering your regular size for a true-to-size fit that follows your body’s natural curves. The stretchy fabric accommodates various body types while maintaining a sleek, tailored appearance. If you prefer a more relaxed fit with extra room through the hips and thighs, consider sizing up one size.

Styling

Care Instructions

Proper care ensures your bermuda shorts maintain their performance qualities and flattering fit for years of wear. Machine wash cold with like colors using a gentle detergent free of fabric softeners, which can break down moisture-wicking properties.

Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry for best results. Avoid high heat settings that can damage the stretch fibers and reduce fabric elasticity. Do not bleach or iron. For best performance, wash your shorts after each wear to remove sweat, oils, and bacteria that can compromise the antimicrobial treatment.
