Plus-size running skorts: Best options for inclusive sizing (UK & us)
PLUS-SIZE RUNNING SKORTS: BEST OPTIONS FOR INCLUSIVE SIZING (UK & US)
Finding quality running skorts in plus sizes requires brands committed to true inclusive sizing. At FLANCI, we firmly believe runners of all body types deserve gear that fits well, feels good, and moves with them on every route.
We want you to set the pace, not second-guess your outfit.
Inclusive sizing is stitched into what we do. Our plus size running skorts come in a wide range of sizes, from XXS to XXXXL, and are available in both regular and long lengths. This means that you can choose the coverage that suits you.
No squeezing. No settling. Just a fit that feels right!
More Miles, less wardrobe negotiation
Why does inclusive sizing matter so much? Because if your skort starts staging a mini rebellion mid-run, your focus is gone in a flash.
When fabric pinches or the waistband rolls, your energy shifts from powering forward to pulling your activewear back into place. Properly sized women's skorts with supportive stretch and a waistband that supports your curves eliminate distractions and keep your attention on the finish line.
The fit frustrations we fix (So you Don’t have to)
Not all plus size running skorts are created equal. We’ve all tried a skort that looked cute on the hanger and betrayed us by mile two. FLANCI remedied that.
Fabric that feels good
If the fabric is stiff or heavy, you notice it quickly. Heat builds. Thighs chafe. Fun disappears.
FLANCI’s ladies skorts aren't just vibrant and bold, they’re also made of an 85% polyester and 15% spandex blend. The polyester is lightweight and keeps moisture away from your skin. Spandex brings 360-degree stretch, so the skirt and inner shorts move with you instead of holding you back.
No pockets? No way!
You’re not heading out empty-handed. You’ll have your phone, keys, card, and maybe a gel or two that needs stashing.
Our women’s skorts feature deep side pockets built into the inner shorts to hold your phone securely, plus a zipped back waistband pocket for keys or cards. You head out hands-free, with no awkward stuffing or mid-run reshuffles required.
Lack of style
Activewear shouldn't fade into the background.
Our designs are known for bold prints and standout patterns, from florals to graphic styles and seasonal drops. These are skorts you will wear for a run, then keep on for the rest of your day. Because practical is great, but practical, pretty, and playful is so much better!
Anti-chafing features
Our plus size running skorts are designed to help keep chafing off your route.
We make our skorts with flat-lock seams, so you’re not dealing with raised stitching pressing into your skin. Your skorts lie flat and feel soft against you while you move.
Each skort includes close-fitting shorts that sit comfortably against your body. This helps reduce skin-on-skin friction and gives you secure coverage that stays in place. No riding up. No mid-run rearranging.
A unisex gusset is integrated into the inner shorts to allow more natural movement through the centre panel. This improves comfort in high-motion areas and helps limit rubbing where it matters most.
Brands that truly offer extended sizing
Extended sizing shouldn’t feel like you have unlocked a secret level. Yet in the UK, performance skorts that truly cover a wide size range can still feel frustratingly limited.
FLANCI keeps it simple. Our skort collection runs from XXS to XXXXL, with regular and long lengths available across the range. You get the same bold prints, the same performance fabric, the same thoughtful construction, no matter your size.
There is no separate section. No watered-down version. You fall in love with the design first, then pick the size that fits you. Easy.
Our skorts fit into your life, not the other way around.

Style your skort, own your run
Our women's skorts are infused with personality, and you can make them your own by:
Choosing the length that feels right
Our ladies' skorts come in regular and long lengths, so you can pick the coverage that makes you feel secure. Some of us love a little extra on the thighs. Others prefer a shorter cut for warmer days. There is no correct answer. There is only what feels good on you.
Playing with print
We’ve got ladies' skorts in florals, graphic patterns, bright designs, and darker tones. Try what catches your eye.
Defining your waist
High-waisted ladies' skorts can create a flattering silhouette by sitting further up on the waist and giving you support through the midsection. Tuck in your tank or opt for a vest to highlight that shape, a small tweak that can shift the whole look.
Layering with purpose
Throw on a lightweight running jacket or an oversized hoodie for an easy off-duty feel. Layers add dimension and let you move from run mode to coffee mode without a full outfit change.
Skorts in every size to go beyond the run
Our ladies' skorts aren’t just for training. Pair yours with a relaxed tee and trainers for errands, brunch, or travel days.
With sizing options to suit every body, you can move, groove, and look good doing anything your day throws at you!
