The Perfect Length, Durable, and Travel-Friendly

I am 5'4" and bought these shorts in the Regular size because it adds more length to the good 5-inch inseam, making them absolutely perfect and age-appropriate for me with great coverage without being too long. Shorter styles don't offer enough coverage, but these make me feel incredibly comfortable...

It's also changed, but not in a good way

I purchased this style in 2024 and 2025, the fabric, length, color and design in 2024 are my favorite. 2025's version has been shortened and fabric feels so thin and flimsy.

Comments about Wayfind High Rise 5"" Short

Great mom shorts! The length is perfect. I like the 3 inch for running and working out, but the 5inch length is great for going out or being out with the kids at their sports activities. They are modest, comfy and cute. I like the placement of the pockets. I have to always get an XXS in shorts with Athleta, even though with leggings I do an XS. The shorts seem to run a little bit bigger. I am 5'4" 110 pounds for reference and the XXS is great, even with my long legs.

Great fit! Not frumpy!

Get these!! I'm in love with the lightweight fabric, pockets, zipper pocket and 5" length of these shorts. Comfortable wide waistband doesn't dig or itch. I'm uber picky and will pick these again and again. I'm 5'5" and 127#, athletic build. XS is perfect! Not a frumpy length and versatile for athletic or casual wear.

These shorts fit great and are incredibly comfortable. The high-rise waist is flattering and stays in place, and the 5-inch inseam is the perfect length for me. They're versatile enough for hiking, walking, or just wearing around town. Lightweight, comfortable, and easy to move in—I find myself reaching for them again and again.

comfortable for sure! I have bigger hips and a smaller waist, so sits up pretty high. Wore them for pickleball, great pockets and super easy to move in!

Comfy and great 5" length for tall girls!

I love these shorts! It was difficult to find a 5" length in Navy blue but Athleta did it. Thank you.

My new favorite go to shorts. They look polished and can be dressed up or down. These are the perfect pair of shorts! I have 3 colors and find myself wearing them all the time in the summer. The length is perfect and I love the deep pockets. #sweepstakes

My first time trying this style of shorts. I like that they are a little longer length. Comfortable fit with elastic waist and pockets. Lightweight and great for travel.
