Product Summary
Created with an Italian yarn blended together using a full-interlock knit construction, Alphalete’s Amplify Shorts are designed to highlight curves, provide support, and move with your body. These high-waisted shorts utilize a 3-tiered, tapered waistband which is form-fitting and offers a solid level of compression. There is no front seam which creates a streamlined look.
Adding a stylish touch, the Amplify shorts feature a back scrunch seam detail as well as leg and glute contouring panels to accentuate curves. This rear seam adds a unique look but may feel uncomfortable to some who prefer a seamless design.
