Shop Men's Sweat Shorts at Myprotein
Men's sweat shorts built for more than just the sofa. This collection brings together cotton-rich fabrics, elasticated waistbands and relaxed cuts designed for the days between sessions — and the days you still want to move.
Available in a range of lengths, colourways and fits, these men's sweatshorts are made to work as hard as your rest days demand. Whether you're training, stretching, or keeping it casual, there's a cut here that fits the moment.
Who This Collection Is For
These sweatshorts are built for men who want comfort that doesn't compromise on feel. If you've ever reached for a pair of cotton shorts on a rest day and wished they moved a little better, this collection is the answer.
From gym regulars to those who train hard and recover harder, these are the shorts for anyone who wants reliable, easy-wearing kit that can handle light training, active recovery, or just getting through the day without a second thought about what they're wearing.
When to Wear Men's Sweatshorts
These shorts come into their own on the days that sit between your hardest sessions — mobility work, light cardio, active stretching, or a walk that turns into more than expected. The cotton-rich construction moves with you rather than against you, so they're equally at home in the gym as they are outside it.
They're also an obvious choice for everyday wear. An elasticated drawstring waistband keeps things dialled in whether you're running errands or lounging post-training, and the range of inseam lengths means you can pick what works for your preference and the occasion.
Key Features
Cotton-Rich Fabric
A cotton-rich construction gives these sweatshorts a soft, lived-in feel that holds up across wears. The fabric has enough natural give to move with you during lower-intensity activity without feeling restrictive.
Elasticated Drawstring Waistband
An elasticated waistband with an adjustable drawstring means you can dial in the fit exactly where you want it. It sits securely without digging in, making it just as comfortable through movement as it is at rest.
Choice of Lengths
With both 5" and 7" inseam options across the range, there's a cut to match your preference. The 7" length offers more coverage for training and everyday wear, while the 5" loopback option suits those who prefer a shorter, more relaxed cut.
Range of Colourways
From classic Black and Dark Navy to lighter tones like Light Grey Marl and Falcon, the range covers the bases without overcomplicating things. Easy to pair, easy to wear.

FAQs
What are mens sweat shorts made from?
The sweatshorts in this range are made from a cotton-rich fabric blend. This gives them a soft, comfortable feel while still offering enough stretch to move with you during lighter activity. Check the individual product pages for the exact fabric breakdown on each style.
How do mens sweatshorts fit — should I size up or stick to my usual size?
These shorts are designed with a relaxed fit, so they're generally true to size. If you're between sizes or prefer a looser feel, sizing up is a reasonable option. The elasticated drawstring waistband also gives you a bit of flexibility at the waist regardless of which size you go for. Check the product page for fit notes and size guidance.
What inseam lengths are available in the men's sweatshorts range?
The range includes both 5" and 7" inseam options. The 7" Rest Day Sweat Short is the most widely available cut, with multiple colourways to choose from. If you prefer a shorter length, the 5" Loopback Sweatshort in Washed Black is a solid option with the same comfortable construction.
Which style would you recommend for everyday wear?
If you're after a versatile everyday option, the MP Men's Rest Day 7" Sweat Short in Falcon is worth a look. It's got an elasticated drawstring waistband for a customisable fit and a cotton-rich fabric that moves with you — making it just as comfortable out and about as it is during a light session.
How can I check coverage before choosing this style?
The best place to start is the individual product page for the style you're considering — fit notes, length details and the size guide are all there. If you're unsure between the 5" and 7" inseam, the size guide will show you exactly how each length sits at your measured height.
How should I wash men's fleece shorts and sweatshorts to keep them in good condition?
Follow the care label for best results, as recommendations can vary slightly between styles. Check the individual product page for care instructions specific to each style.
What activities are men's jersey shorts and sweatshorts suited to?
These are best suited to lower-intensity activity — think mobility work, light training, active recovery, gym warm-ups, or general day-to-day wear. The cotton-rich fabric is comfortable and flexible, though it's not specifically designed for high-output or high-sweat sessions.
Who designs the men's sweatshorts at Myprotein?
All the sweatshorts in this range are designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. Every detail — from the waistband construction to the length options and colourway selection — is handled in-house with an eye on fit, function and everyday wearability.
