Meet Prickly Pear Unleash your inner vitality with our Prickly Pear shorts—a bold
tribute to the vibrant heart of the cactus fruit. Inspired by the radiant hot pink flesh of
the prickly pear, these Pune chic shorts celebrate color, courage, and the transformative journey of yoga.
Drawing from B.K.S. Iyengar’s Tree of Yoga, practice is a living organism: roots grounding us, the trunk providing stability, branches reaching for possibility, and at the core—the fruit—our true essence ripening through dedication and discovery. The vivid hue of Prickly Pear reminds us that beneath the protective layers—our habits, doubts, distractions—lies sweetness, strength, and vibrant life waiting to be revealed. Designed for comfort and confidence, these shorts invite you to peel back the layers—body, breath, mind, and soul—with every practice. Let this color inspire you to move boldly, embrace your unique path, and savor the fruit of your efforts. Step onto your mat, shine bright, and let your practice blossom—Prickly Pear style.
Elastic waistband at the waistline bellow the naval, wide triple layer cotton cuffs on the upper thighs which hold the shorts gently close to the skin.
100% Soft Organic Cotton. Monochromatic Lotus embroidery on the back.

Can't have enough of these pants! I love the colors and the high quality of the fabric.
Great color and great fit!
J’adoooooore!🩷
The shorts are fine. But, after paying in full , including tax and import fees,for two pair of shorts, I was told I was to be charged an additional COD charge of 65$ by USCustoms, collected by UPS, paid by a check to the vendor. When I tried for three days to get a response about the charge from Malika Padma, I got no reply until I actually paid the extra $65 and accepted delivery. Then I got an email from Malika Padma “explaining” the additional charge. Their lack of a timely response to my problem and inquiry was upsetting. These shorts are expensive. This additional fee was an unpleasant surprise. I am not happy with their service.
Hi Marian,
We’re truly sorry for the frustration you experienced with your recent order. We completely understand how upsetting unexpected customs fees can be. Unfortunately, import duties and brokerage fees are determined by each country’s Customs and are outside of our control, they can vary depending on the shipping method and destination country.
That said, we should have responded more promptly to your inquiry, and we sincerely apologize for that delay. We’re a small mother–daughter team doing our best to handle every question personally, and sometimes messages can take a little longer to reach us, but we always want our customers to feel cared for.
Together with Shopify, we’ve now added a customs fee prediction tool at checkout to help estimate any potential import costs before purchase. .
We’re glad you’re enjoying the shorts themselves, and we’d love the chance to make things right, please feel free to reach out to us directly at admin@malaikapadma.com
With gratitude,
The Malaika Padma Team
