There are lots of different types of shorts on the market—running shorts, football shorts, tennis shorts—so what's the difference, and do you really need a pair of tennis shorts?

TENNIS SHORTS FOR MEN

Tennis shorts for men are usually longer than men's running shorts. They’re designed to give you a full range of motion when you play, but they don’t have the same level of support as running shorts. Though, they can be more comfortable if you’re not used to wearing tight clothing.

Tennis shorts come in lots of different styles and colours, and whether you're looking for the traditional men's white tennis shorts, or a brightly coloured pair to stand out from the crowd, you're sure to find the right pair of shorts for you in our range.

TENNIS SHORTS FOR WOMEN

When it comes to women's tennis clothing, there is a little more choice out there. Women can choose to team their tennis polo with a skirt or skort, or many women choose to wear a dress on court. Although, both coloured and white tennis shorts are still a popular choice for women. You can also buy super practical ladies tennis shorts with ball pockets - the balls even stay in the pockets as you move.

At Decathlon, we have tennis shorts for men, women, and kids so the whole family can look the part both on and off the court. They're comfortable, and are generally made from a moisture-wicking material to keep you dry while playing tennis. They provide moderate support and coverage, and can also be worn for other activities, such as yoga, though we do have a great range of yoga clothing too.
