Women's Stratus Breathable Short

Warmth you can layer under. Cut for the first step, the second jump and the fourth quarter, the Women's Stratus Breathable Short is lofted enough to hold heat, thin enough to disappear under a shell — mesh placed where heat actually builds, not where it looks good.

The short uses layered thermal construction with a brushed insulating interior, made up in open-structure ventilated knit with visible mesh zones, finished with quilted channel stitching and a brushed inner collar, and given a soft brushed contrast on the inner face, just visible at the hem. Everything else is kept quiet: stitching in a matching thread so the seams read as pressure lines rather than colour. It is cut on a women's block, shaped through the hip with a higher front rise, so you get freedom through the shoulders and hips with nothing that grabs on a cut. The kind of piece that quietly becomes the default.

• Targeted mesh venting through the high-heat zones

• Bonded inner brief that stays put
• Split hem for an unrestricted stride
