Maternity Shorts: Style & Comfort for Every Trimester

Find maternity shorts at Kohl’s that blend comfort and style for every trimester. Choose from soft, easy-fit options perfect for warm days and active moments—designed to help you feel confident. 

Types of Maternity Shorts

Classic Maternity Jean Shorts

Denim is a wardrobe staple that you shouldn't have to give up. Maternity jean shorts at Kohl's are engineered with premium stretch denim that accommodates your shape without sagging. You can find everything from trendy distressed cut-offs to polished Bermuda lengths.

Athletic Maternity Shorts

Staying active during pregnancy has immense benefits, but you need gear that moves with you. Athletic maternity shorts are designed with moisture-wicking fabrics and four-way stretch to handle everything from prenatal yoga to a brisk walk around the neighborhood. Look for biker short styles which are currently on-trend and offer the added benefit of preventing inner-thigh chafing—a common comfort hurdle during pregnancy.

Summer Maternity Shorts: Linen and Soft Knits

When the heat hits, lightweight fabrics are non-negotiable. Summer maternity shorts made from linen blends, cotton, or soft rayon offer maximum breathability. These often come with drawstring waists (functional or decorative) that sit under the bump for a relaxed, beach-ready vibe.

Selecting the Right Fabric for Comfort

Cotton and linen are breathable and gentle, perfect for sensitive skin during pregnancy. Spandex and elastane add stretch and help shorts keep their shape as your body changes. For workouts, tech fabrics manage moisture to keep you cool and dry.

Sizing and Shopping Tips

Choose your regular pre-pregnancy size when shopping for maternity shorts—Kohl’s brands are designed for a comfortable fit as your belly and hips grow. If you’re carrying twins or notice extra weight in your legs, consider sizing up in shorts for added comfort. Check each brand’s size chart, as fits may vary.
