boy shorts

Hip-hugging undergarment

Boy shorts are women's underwear or swimwear bottoms with a low-rise waist and leg openings that extend slightly down the thigh, resembling men's briefs or short boxer briefs.

The style offers more coverage than bikini cuts: I prefer boy shorts for running—they don't ride up.

Also called boyshorts or boy-cut briefs.
