Navigating the world of athletic wear can be tricky, and navigating Lululemon's athletic wear can be near impossible. There are just so many options! And with nothing being a really bad pick, narrowing down your choices to the best pick isn't the easiest thing to do. Until now, that is.

Welcome to the ultimate buying guide for Lululemon shorts. Should you get the ABC Classic or the Pace Breaker? A 5" inseam or a 9" inseam? What pair is best for running? Are any pairs good enough to wear to places that aren't the gym? Here, we're tackling Lululemon's six best-selling shorts with deep-dives on fit, function, and style, so you can make the best informed decision before you buy a pair (or a few pairs) for yourself.

No two preferences are the same, so take a look at the design, features, and functions of each pair of shorts below to select the pair that's going to be perfectly suited to you. All of these shorts are exceptional in terms of quality (they are, after all, Lululemon), and whether you want a pair to chill in or a pair to run in, your perfect style is below.

Zeroed In Linerless Shorts

These are a lightweight, barely-there style that are breathable and comfortable. The sweat-wicking fabric has your back through any workout, whether you're going for a run or lifting some serious weights. And with streamlined pockets, features than enhance mobility, and an adjustable drawstring waistband, you'll want to wear these all the time.

ABC Classic-Fit Shorts

Designed to replace your dress shorts, these are like your best everyday pair of shorts, but better. Why? Because they have a stretchy fabric that means you have to adjust less, a comfortable fit with discreet seams, and pockets designed to hold coins, a phone, and your hands with ease.

Pace Breaker Lined Shorts

The Pace Breaker shorts are all about enhancing your workout. These are like the Zeroed In Shorts, except, whereas those are linerness, these do have a liner—so it's mostly down to preference, here. These also have a phone pocket perfect for a run or lifting sesh, and a lightweight, comfortable fabric that lets you move with ease.

License to Train Linerless Shorts

Designed for training, these abrasion-resistant shorts are tough enough for any job. The fabric wicks away moisture, and the tapered silhouette has extra room in the quads and glutes so as to fit just right.

Soft Jersey Shorts

For your casual days, the Soft Jersey Shorts are an infallible pick. Curl up on the couch or hit the grocery store with these on; you'll love the soft, stretchy jersey fabric and the roomy, baggy fit.

Steady State Shorts

Finally, the Steady State Shorts. These are all about comfort, whether that's at the gym or at home. Lightweight, breathable fleece makes these versatile enough to sweat in or to relax in, and the soft, flexible fabric is one you'll never want to take off.
