I’m very particular about my running bottoms, and these shorts did not disappoint. The inseam didn’t ride up or catch, so I had zero issues with chafing. The material feels light and breathable making them comfortable even on longer runs, especailly in the hot Phoenix weather. My favorite feature is the waistband—it securely holds a 500ml flask along with my poles, which is a huge plus for trail runs.
These shorts are amazing!! Perfect for any trail adventure. The belt built into the waist band actually fits everything you need (phone, gels, soft flask, car keys, etc) with minimal bounce. The short liner is great at preventing chafing on longer days. Plus fabric is all very light weight and breathable.
I love these shorts, especially the waistband, in which I can fit a flask, sport beans, tissues, chap stick, etc. (Could fit my phone, but that goes in my bra.) My waist and hip measurements are both on the cusp of S/M (5'6", 133 lb). I got the medium. The waistband fits great, but the liner shorts ride up and are definitely not compressive. I am going to try the 3" in a small and hope they work better.
Thank you so much for your detailed feedback! We're glad to hear you love the shorts and especially the waistband. We appreciate your feedback on the liner fit and compression, and we'll share it with our product development team. We hope the Small 3' shorts work better for you!
The website doesn't make it clear but these ship from China. When I got the tracking info my heart sank a little bit, and I thought I might have fallen for some Temu-grade crap. Boy was I wrong. These shorts are awesome! Well worth the money. The pockets and storage are all I could have hoped for, and they stayed cool and dry during long hot runs.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that the shorts exceeded your expectations.
