Womens mesh and performance shorts get their own set of sizing, color, and design questions separate from the mens cut. This guide covers the Bear Grips womens fitness short blank and how to order it in bulk without a wholesale minimum.

The Womens Fitness Short Blank

The Ladies 3 inch Fitness Short from Sport-Tek runs $30.88 VIP base ($37.88 on the free plan) and is the closest performance-fabric match to a womens mesh short in the catalog. It is built for studio classes and gym-floor movement rather than the longer athletic cut used in the mens 7 inch mesh short.

Color Choices That Work Best

Black is consistently the most-requested color for womens gym shorts, largely because dark solids hide the open weave far better than light colors. See the full explanation in the mesh shorts liner guide for why color and weave affect the see-through look.

Pricing for a Womens Roster

Retail priceVIP baseMargin per pair
$34.88$30.88$4.00
$38.88$30.88$8.00
$42.88$30.88$12.00

There is no minimum order and no volume discount, so a studio can order one pair to confirm color and fit before opening it to the full membership.

Design Placement Women Request Most

A small waistband logo or a left-hip mark is the most common request for womens gym and studio mesh shorts, kept intentionally subtle compared to the bolder leg-hem logos common on mens shorts. See mesh shorts design ideas for placement guidance across the category.

Setting Up a Womens-Only Mesh Short Listing
