About arc
We started Arc because we were tired of seeing gym wear brands charge $50–$80 for a pair of shorts that cost a fraction of that to make. Great activewear shouldn't be a luxury, and we don't believe you should have to choose between quality and affordability.
From day one, we made ourselves one promise: our shorts will always be $25. No fake discounts, no inflated markups, and no pricing things higher just because everyone else does. We believe that's what premium gym shorts should actually cost.
But Arc isn't just about saving money. We wanted to create pieces that make getting dressed for the gym exciting. Bright colors, playful details, and combinations that stand out without trying too hard. The little matching logo accents, fresh colorways, and clean designs are meant to bring a little more confidence and fun to every workout.
When it came to the shorts themselves, we obsessed over the details that actually matter. A sculpting fit that hugs in all the right places, supportive compression where you want it, soft stretch that moves with you, and fabric that stays comfortable through every lift, run, and rest day. We focused on creating a flattering silhouette that feels secure without feeling restrictive, so you can focus on your workout—not adjusting your shorts.
At the end of the day, Arc is built on a simple idea:
Premium quality. Honest pricing. Color that makes you feel good.
Because looking and feeling your best shouldn't cost $50.
