What is Irish Army Yoga Shorts - Irish Army?
The Irish Army Yoga Shorts are a performance-oriented bottom designed for adult athletes who demand a blend of flexibility, support, and style.

Frequently Asked Questions
What material are the Irish Army Yoga Shorts made from?
▾
The shorts are constructed from a soft microfiber blend that varies by production location. In the U.S. and Mexico they contain 75 % recycled polyester and 25 % elastane; in Latvia the mix is 82 % polyester and 18 % elastane. Both versions weigh about 225-230 g/m² and provide four-way stretch.
Does the high waistband affect comfort during long sessions?
▾
Yes, the high waistband is designed to sit securely on the hips without digging in, thanks to the soft microfiber and elasticized edge. It distributes pressure evenly, which helps prevent the shorts from shifting during prolonged poses or cardio intervals, keeping you comfortable for the duration of the workout.
How do the shorts handle moisture and odor?
▾
The microfiber yarn wicks sweat away from the skin and dries quickly, reducing the chance of moisture buildup. Additionally, the fabric’s antimicrobial treatment helps limit odor formation, so the shorts stay fresher between washes, though regular laundering is still recommended after intense sessions.
Is the fabric recyclable after use?
▾
While the shorts contain recycled polyester, the overall garment is not currently part of a take-back program, so they cannot be directly recycled through most municipal streams. However, the high-quality fibers can be repurposed by textile recyclers that accept mixed-material apparel, extending the material’s life cycle.
Can I wear the shorts for activities other than yoga?
▾
Absolutely. The four-way stretch, breathable microfiber and flat-seam construction make the shorts suitable for Pilates, high-intensity interval training, dance rehearsals, and even casual athleisure wear. Their sleek silhouette and moisture-wicking properties keep you comfortable whether you’re in a studio, gym, or on the go.
