Mom Shorts

Love the fit and feel of our Mom jeans and pants? We've got some really good news. You can get the same style without the full length when you choose Mom shorts from American Eagle. We make them in multiple fit options so you can have the exact look and style you want, and they come in Curvy, Highest Waist, and Classic styles with all the best details. Plus, with tons of choices for fabric and color, you've got options when it comes to this throwback-inspired short. Need more proof that she knows best?

The Mom short is all about comfort where it counts, and adding a '90s-inspired look to your oufit of the day. Classic Mom shorts sit straight across the waist for a comfy, relaxed fit, while the Curvy version is designed for curves and has more room at the hip and thigh. Looking for a little more? The Highest Waist Mom short uses our highest rise, but still offers the same laid-back and relaxed fit. No matter which fit is your fave, you can alway find the one that feels best at AE.

Our women’s shorts come in tons of different fabrics, ranging from soft denim to lightweight linen, classic corduroy to stretch twill. Our Mom fit is no different, meaning you can have all the throwback vibes with your fave fabrics, too. Choose Mom jean shorts made with comfy stretch denim, or go all-in on the authentic denim look with rigid cotton that doesn't stretch at all. Linen shorts keep things light in spring and summer, and corduroy shorts are all about layering in the fall. Choose from prints like plaid and camo, or stick with classic denim washes that range from super light to super dark to create a look that's all you.

AE women's shorts and skirts are made to feel good so you can feel like your best self, which is why we make a bunch of different fits and fabrics! Choose from denim shorts in fits like Mom and '90s Boyfriend, or go for a classic look with stretch khaki shorts in varying lengths. Keep your look light this summer with soft shorts made from lightweight fleece and linen, or go for the athletic-inspired trend in bike shorts. Mix and match them with your fave women’s shirts & tops for a look that's just your style. Whatever your shorts style is, there's something for everyone at American Eagle.
