Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Athletica S1 Scrunch Booty Shorts special?

Athletica S1 introduces our velvety soft 4-way stretch fabric technology – a premium polyester-spandex blend that contours and smooths while feeling luxurious against the skin. The ruched centre-back seam enhances shape with intentional design, and the squat-proof construction means you can train with complete confidence.

What does 'velvety soft' actually mean?

It's a specific fabric finish that creates a smooth, luxurious hand feel that's noticeably softer than standard activewear. Think buttery-smooth meets second-skin comfort. You'll feel the difference the moment you put them on.

How does the ruched seam enhance shape?

The ruched centre-back seam is strategically designed to contour, support, and accentuate your natural shape from every angle. It creates subtle lifting and definition without looking artificial or overdone. The effect is refined and intentional.

Are Athletica S1 Shorts squat-proof?

Yes. The squat-proof construction and high-quality fabric blend stay completely non-see-through during squats, lunges, and floor work. We recommend wearing nude-toned underwear for extra confidence and full coverage during your training.

How do Athletica S1 Shorts fit?

True to size with a high-waisted fit and supportive waistband that features extra elasticity for a secure, stay-put feel. The shorts contour to the body without feeling restrictive. If you're between sizes, go with your usual size.

What's the difference between Athletica S1 and Soul Scrunch Shorts?

Athletica S1: Velvety soft fabric, ruched centre-back seam, high-waisted, smooth second-skin finish – premium comfort focus

Soul Scrunch: Ultra high-waisted, side pockets, scrunch seam, reflective logo – practical sculpting focus

S1 is about luxurious fabric and comfort; Soul adds functionality with pockets.

Can I wear Athletica S1 Shorts for high-intensity training?

Yes. While the fabric feels soft and luxurious, it's built for performance. The 4-way stretch, squat-proof construction, and breathable feel make them ideal for Pilates, functional training, and studio sessions.

Do Athletica S1 Shorts have pockets?

No. The S1 design focuses on a clean, sculpted silhouette with smooth lines and no disruptions. If you need pockets, consider the Soul Scrunch Booty Shorts instead.

How do I care for Athletica S1 Shorts?

• Wash inside out in cold water to preserve the velvety finish
• Air dry to maintain elasticity and ruched detail
• Avoid fabric softener – it can reduce the fabric's soft feel over time

What activities are Athletica S1 Shorts best for?

Designed for: Pilates, Yoga, Studio. Perfect for reformer sessions, barre, mat work, and any activity where comfort, coverage, and confident movement matter most.
