Women's Midi Shorts

If you’re the kind of girl who doesn’t quite love the fit of short shorts but doesn’t want as much coverage as a classic Bermuda short, it can sometimes be a little difficult to find your ideal women’s shorts fit. There are tons out there, ranging from super short to knee length, so finding the perfect mid-thigh length short can sometimes feel impossible. Welcome AE midi shorts to the party and you’ll instantly fall in love with its middle of the road fit. Not too long, not too short, you’ll feel like Goldilocks every time you slip into our midi shorts. Choose a pair of denim or khaki midi shorts and you’ll love the fit and feel of your new favorite pair of shorts from AE.

We’re here to change the game and bring you mid-length shorts that fit your style and preference. Our midi shorts for women are a truly happy medium length - not too long (we have great Bermuda shorts if you’re looking for more coverage!), and definitely not too short (but we have short shorts, too!). Some styles, including our signature denim midi and khaki midi shorts come in longer lengths that you can roll up to the exact length you want. For a cleaner look, opt for a style with finished hems, or embrace laid-back vintage vibes with raw details and frayed hems. Distressed details like rips and tears on your shorts can add a little edge to your spring and summer style.

Our midi shorts come in a range of rises to help you get the fit you’re looking for every time. The classic low rise sits low on your hips, and high-waisted styles sit at the natural waist for more coverage and comfort. Whichever rise you prefer, we’ve got plenty of options in fits and fabrics, too. From high-waisted festival midi shorts to Tomgirl and khaki midi shorts, you’ve got plenty of options to find your next favorites. American Eagle women’s shorts are made from the highest quality denim fabrics in 100% cotton and Ne(X)t Level Stretch fabrication, which creates a stretchy and ultra-comfortable fit wear after wear. We applied this same stretch technology to our twill khaki shorts, too, so you never have to choose between style and comfort.

Whether you’re dressing for the heat of summer, or making short season last as long as possible, we have everything you need to outfit your AE women’s midi shorts. Wear them with all your favorite women’s tops like button down shirts, crop tops, fitted tees and more. When the sun sets on your summer adventures, layer up with hoodies & sweatshirts to stay cozy and comfortable from morning to night. And don’t forget all the accessories to complete your look – we’ve got everything from hair accessories and sunglasses to jewelry and handbags, too.
