"These shorts are incredibly lightweight and very comfortable. The waistband on these shorts might be the best waistband I have ever encountered. It's supportive, but very soft. It's very nice. The fact that these have pockets too is mind-blowing. The liner is tight enough to keep things in place. Only downside I would say is that the light colored shorts become a little bit see-through when they're covered in sweat."
"Not the best walking around shorts as they are a little puffy in the middle, but they are perfect for running!"
"So far, I’ve used them on a few of my longer runs, and it genuinely makes a difference. It took me significantly less time to get warmed up (less than a mile to get in the groove as opposed to closer to 2 some days) and then the recovery was also a lot shorter. I was expecting to be down for a couple 2-3 days post running a half, and I was feeling ready to run again the next day. Now, I did wear them for a little while after my run as well just to get use of the during and after effects of compression sleeves, but I think my mind has been changed on running in them because of how much of a difference it has truly made. Not so sure on shorter speed runs yet, but who knows? I’m looking forward to more time with them and getting the full benefits."
"Took these bad boys for a spin finally and they were wonderful! I had been holding off due to the slightly aggressive windbreaker material but it was not an issue in use. No annoying sounds from the material, super comfortable, reasonable sized liner, and they even have normal pockets which is a bonus! Held up well to a lap in the scrub oak. Was not very windy but these would likely provide some protection from that. Probably not the best super hot weather shorts but great for mornings or the shoulder season."
"I like the shorts generally. The back pocket is big enough for my phone and they are comfortable to run in. The stiffness of the outer shell causes a swishing sound and feels outdated compared to newer fabrics"
"The shorts have a hole in the right front pocket. But other than that i like them."
"Fit fine, but really stiff shell fabric that makes them loud and not overly comfortable"
"Shorts are comfortable, worn for several half marathons, and longer (18+ mile) training runs. Rear pocket is convenient, but cell phone (Pixel 6a) barely fits in rear pocket, might be a problem with a larger phone."
"Nice material, good quality just a bit short in length for me to really love these."
"This shorts is very lightweight and comfortable."
