Are the inner tights removable?

No. The inner tights are sewn into the shorts as a fixed double-layer construction and cannot be removed or worn separately.

What activities are these shorts suitable for?

The shorts work across tennis, athletics, running, cycling practice, PE sessions and active playground time. They are not waterproof or windproof, so they suit dry-weather sport rather than outdoor training in rain.

Do the shorts have pockets?

Yes. There is one small pocket at the back, suitable for a locker key or hair tie.

How do I choose the right size?

The shorts have an elastic waistband and high-stretch construction (22-23% elastane), so they follow normal body movement. Choose the size that matches the child's usual clothing size; the stretch fabric accommodates a range of movement without pulling tight.

MATEIDIE shorts are a double-layer pair of girls' running shorts with built-in tights, designed to provide coverage and freedom of movement during sport, PE sessions and active playground time. The outer shorts sit over close-fitting inner tights, combining the modesty of longer coverage with the unrestricted leg movement that comes from a stretchy base layer, which matters when a child is sprinting, stretching or changing direction quickly.

Air Supply fabric forms the outer layer, a lightweight recycled polyamide construction that improves ventilation as activity increases. The 23% elastane content in the main material and 22% in the inner tights allows both layers to flex with the body rather than pulling or riding up mid-movement. This double-layer approach addresses a specific need: the outer shorts provide the relaxed silhouette many girls prefer for school sport and casual wear, whilst the inner tights prevent chafing and stay in place during sustained activity.

The elastic waistband sits flat against the body without digging in, and a small back pocket adds practical storage for a locker key or hair tie. The shorts work across tennis, athletics, cycling practice and summer outdoor sessions, with the recycled fabric construction keeping them light enough to pack into a sports bag without taking up space.
