These high-waist gym shorts are shown as close-fitting, above-knee shorts, with Short Red, Short Black, Short Gray, Short Pink and Short Blue options in S through XL. The original product copy mixed a shorts chart with a separate leggings chart. The current product page now gives only the shorts figures. If you saved an old screenshot, check which chart its numbers came from before choosing a size.

Read the four shorts rows

• S: waist 56–71 cm, hips 76–91 cm, listed length 46 cm.
• M: waist 60–75 cm, hips 80–95 cm, listed length 47 cm.
• L: waist 64–79 cm, hips 84–99 cm, listed length 48 cm.
• XL: waist 68–83 cm, hips 88–103 cm, listed length 49 cm.

The printed waist and hip ranges increase by 4 cm per size step; the length increases by 1 cm. Adjacent ranges overlap substantially. A waist near 70 cm, for example, appears in every printed waist band, so a single number does not pick a size. The column heading says “Stretch,” but it never explains whether the low and high values are the shorts relaxed and stretched, or body-size suggestions. Reaching the upper number does not by itself mean the fit will be comfortable.

Compare a reference pair

Take shorts you can wear comfortably. Lay them flat without pulling the fabric. Record the waistband width doubled, the widest hip width doubled, the side length from a named waistband point to the leg hem, and the leg-opening width. If you choose to stretch the reference garment, record how far you pulled it and whether it returns to shape. Ask MAXCT for the same relaxed and stretched measurements on the selected size and where its 46–49 cm length starts. The body-versus-garment measurement guide explains why matching measurement methods matters.

Check where the leg hem lands

On your reference pair, mark 46, 47, 48 and 49 cm from the same waistband point. Look at the marks while standing and sitting. This is a planning aid, not a prediction of the MAXCT hem: rise, leg shape and measurement origin may differ. The source notes possible 1–3 cm manual-measurement variation. Ask for a flat photo with a ruler beside your chosen size if hem position is important.

The photos and chart do not establish support, compression, stretch recovery or exercise performance. For another example of checking conflicting workout-shorts data before purchase, see the high-waist shorts record comparison.
