Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Harmony High Rise 6 Inch Short is designed for women seeking comfortable and supportive activewear for lower intensity workouts and daily activities. Its key benefit is the blend of soft, stretchy fabric with a flattering, form-fitting silhouette and high-rise waist for optimal coverage. A potential caveat is its suitability primarily for lower intensity activities, not high-impact training. Key features include a 6-inch inseam, flatlock seams for reduced friction, and a reflective logo for visibility.

FAQs
What type of activities are these shorts best for?
These shorts are ideal for lower intensity sessions such as yoga, pilates, walking, light stretching, and everyday casual wear. They are designed for comfort and ease of movement during less strenuous activities.
What does 'high rise' mean for these shorts?
High rise refers to the waistband sitting at or above your natural waistline, providing more coverage and a secure feel.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for women's activewear. Measure your waist and hips and compare them to the chart. Since these have a slim fit, consider sizing up if you are between sizes or prefer a looser feel.
Are these shorts suitable for running?
While they can be used for light jogging or walking, they are primarily designed for lower intensity activities. For intense or long-distance running, you might prefer shorts with more specific technical features for that sport.
How visible is the reflective logo?
The reflective New Balance Flying 'NB' logo is designed to catch light and increase visibility in low-light conditions, such as dusk or dawn. It provides a safety enhancement for outdoor activities.
What is the material of the shorts?
The shorts are crafted from a soft, stretchy polyester fabric, designed for comfort and flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a more relaxed fit, especially if you prefer less compression.
Chafing occurs during wear.
The flatlock seams are designed to minimize chafing. Ensure the shorts are oriented correctly and consider wearing seamless underwear underneath. If chafing persists, these shorts may be best suited for very light activity.
Waistband is rolling down.
Confirm the elasticated waistband is sitting comfortably on your natural waist. If it continues to roll, it might indicate the size is slightly too large or the shorts are not intended for the intensity of the activity.
