And considering athletic-driven styles can make for the perfect warm-weather alternative to your favorite workout leggings, there's really no better time to hop on the trend. That said, if you're unsure of where to locate the best biker shorts to transition from barre to brunch, you've come to the right place — there are double-duty styles you can slip on for workouts and beyond just a few scrolls away.

Being able to reference reviews from customers who've tested a product out before you is always helpful, and luckily there are several biker short styles that have received the stamp of approval from fellow shoppers. Take this $59 Elation 8" Short In Powervita™ from Athleta; it's received more than 100 reviews from customers and has been rated just under five stars.
