Definitely buy up 1 size. These shorts are great but they definitely run small. I wear a Medium in shorts but these were so tight that they dug into my skin. I replaced them with a Large and they fit great. I bought the 5 '' in black and pink. The only thing that I do n't like about these shorts is the drawstring. They are so thin that it comes out of the wash tangled and twisted tight every time. It's annoying but not that big of a deal.

[ These are basically the combination of the UA Heatgear compression shorts and woven training shorts. The liner is very comfortable and supportive and the shorts are nice and cool. First time I wore them was for an indoor bike workout and I liked them. Liner wicks sweat well, very little soaked through onto the shorts themselves.

5 AM44
[ These shorts are exactly what I was looking for. I train a lot in kick boxing and these shorts give me the flexibility to get full extension while not compromising my posture or stance. The undershorts give me the extra comfort needed to feel secure while training. If flexibility and comfort are what your looking for then go no further because these shorts fit the bill. 100% recommended.

If you like thick waist material for your shorts this is it. I ’ m 280lbs 5 ’ 10 ” so I ’ m wide and play rugby but i also love nike, very impressed with material( which Nike lately been selling us cheap material for insane price)

5 RichA778165061
Love the material they used on this. Very breathable and these might be my new favorite pair of go- to shorts. If the area you live in has very hot summers, this is an essential pick- up. Wish they included zip pockets for extra security but I can overlook that minor oversight. I was glad I got the extra 20% off on this and I might pick up another pair because of how comfortable they are. These shorts do run short and they stop about 2 inches from the knee( I ’ m about 5 ’ 9 ”) so don ’ t buy these if you expect a longer length. Worth the buy 👍

5 Kingsley835904547
Perfect material, very comfortable and easy to move around in everyday whatever your doing. Overall awesome buy!

5 DRJx2
Solid feel for the runners and athletes. On first wear, came off a little stiff but I ’ m sure the fabric will give more in time after wears and washes. The liners are a bit snug and bunches up when squatting. However, I ’ d buy again. Solid shorts!

They want another color just to change things up. We have to wash them after every time they wear them so they can have them the next day. So far so good.

5 Ethan
These shorts are breathable and thin with a good elasticity to the waist band. Typically, I 'm not a fan of a liner but this one is light and comfortable. The moisture wick relaxed fit is perfect for running, sports, or everyday wear. The only downside to these shorts might be the zipper pocket.

5 JoeyD
These VRST running shorts are incredibly comfortable! Constructed from a very thin, lightweight fabric, they almost feel as if you 're only wearing briefs. They have a sewn- in liner that does n't feel like typical, swim- trunk liners, the material is so soft you wont even know you 're wearing them. Pockets are deep enough to hold a wallet, keys and a phone. The shorts I received lie just above the knee, at 5' 9, I love that... they dont make me look shorter. I 'm 250lbs and the XXL fit perfect. They 're also perforated just below the belt line and down the inseam.... it really makes a difference in keeping you cool down there!!

Men ’s VRST 7 ” shorts. These shorts are very comfortable. Although they have a lining inside the shorts that I ’ m not crazy about, they get the job done. They don ’ t stay wet long which is always a plus when working out.

Great shorts, light, good length( I ’ m 5 ’ 6 ”). The more I run the more I want shorts that cover what they need to cover but otherwise get out of the way. There ’s a decent sized zippered pocket in the back which I don ’ t always need but it ’s also not noticeable so it ’s a well designed feature. I have them in black and football gray and hope Nike offers more colors like navy, gray, and light blue.

I got these shorts mostly to wear to bed or around the house after I showered after a day on the golf course or working games as a hockey official. I do n't necessarily see myself working out in them, but for what I needed them for, they are great. They 're lightweight, breathable, and are very cool. Overall, they are n't as short as they 'd seem with a 5 '' inseam, as you can see in the pictures. I am 6' 4 '' with long legs, and they do n't seem excessively short to me.

5 hannahj367447978
I was not a huge fan of the low rise versions for coverage reasons and upon trying these on I fell in love. They have slightly more coverage, are super lightweight, beautiful colors, and they are great for strength training and running. Overall a great purchase for the spring/ summer. I ’ d recommend going a size up because they do fit slightly small but also because of the slit in the leg it would be easy to get away with going true to size if you are fine with a tighter waist band.

My only complaint is that the actual color of the shorts dont match what is shown in the pictures. The gray ones for example look like a lighter gray but in person are very dark. I find this to be a common pattern with Nike ’s products. Maybe they use a filter on their photos and edit the lighting which in turn changes the color in the photos. These are great shorts. I mainly use them for running and functional training but they are so comfy i even wear them around the house casually. I love shorts that are a bit forgiving around the waist and dont feel like they are suffocating me. The Nike Stride shorts tend to make me feel that way. Also the liner is a great size on these shorts and actually fit, much wider than the stride shorts. I think if you ’ re built wider or maybe your a body builder type with more muscle, then these might be a better fit. I wear Medium in shorts and pants in general and I ordered a Medium in these.

[ These Nike shorts are amazing!! I love the way they look there super retro and cute definitely in styles look! The feeling and fabric is a nice very soft like a fleece feeling wind breaker material. It is very light weight, comfortable and stretchy material. There definitely breathable and a casual comfy look. I absolutely love them!

5 T
[ Wow! Just ran 2 miles in these can honestly say I ’ m very pleased. I typically would never run in shorts due to chaffing but thought I would give these a try since they were advertised as sweat wicking. The shorts did not disappoint. During the run I did sweat quite a bit as you can see from armpits in pic and the shorts did not get wet one bit. I wore a size 0x and at first try on thought they were a big loser than I would like, but that loser fit played into comfortability. During my run I was extremely comfortable, did not have to tug on bottoms to pull them down or adjust fitting. They also have built in underwear, which is a plus. This is a piece you want regret, if your active, they perform exactly has advertised and if your looking to run errands comfortably you will still be stylish.

5 Alicia
[ The first thing I noticed about these shorts are how light weight the fabric is. They fit true to size and I love the wide waist band. I am plus size and these are the best fitting loose athletic shorts j have found. The fabric feels super light, perfect for workouts or wearing out and about on hot days. My only complaint about these shorts is that the pockets are not big enough to hold my cell phone securely. It hangs out and falls out easily. That being said these are still my go to shorts.

5 Stephanie

5 Errynr
[ The women ’s chaser shorts are so cute and fit perfectly. They are very comfortable and I don ’ t feel overly exposed. It ’s super cold so I mostly wear them to the gym but look forward to wearing them outside when temperatures warm up. They are so cute I would totally wear them out not just running. The fabric is really nice and very comfortable. They definitely seem very well made and are holding up beautifully. I will definitely buy more.

5 Kate
[ This pair of shorts is light, airy, and super comfortable. It feels super light to touch and when you wear it it feels like you have nothing on. It's super duper comfortable. However, the length is really short. It does have an inner slip so that your underwear does n't show but it does n't really have full coverage, so I do n't feel like I can work out in a public gym with these shorts. But for private workout usage, it is great.

5 MattB
[ The women ’s chaser 3 ” short 2. 0 is the perfect addition to my running and workout attire. I love the adjustable drawcord in the waistband( which is tucked inside of the waistband instead of having strings hanging out) and the small pockets big enough to hold keys while I ’ m out on a run. I found that the shorts are great for running and biking- with the built in liner to help avoiding the shorts from riding up and the 3 ” length is great for allowing movement. The fabric is lightweight and comfortable, which allows more time focusing on my workout and less about unbunching or constantly pulling material one way or the other. I also love that the top of the shorts are stretchy and provide maximum comfort while the lower half are lightweight and breezy material that doesn ’ t rub on my skin. Looking forward to wearing these shorts for many workouts to come!

5 Krista
[ The shorts fit great. I have a longer torso and the waist ban is high but I feel like I have enough room in the inseam. The material is silky but breathable. The colors are vibrant and trendy. I do feel like they are shorter than other shorts, that are a similar style, but my bottom is covered. I like the built in underwear. It ’s comfortable but makes me feel compressed. I would definitely purchase another pair of these shorts. They are great running shorts. They don ’ t ride up when I run. They stay in place. Great pair of running shorts.

Right away they are super lightweight and stretchy. The 5 '' length is right on trend and the neutral olive colorway I have looks awesome with anything. The faux fly and back pocket make these superrrr versatile. They do not flare out much at the thigh which I like. These fit true to size for me. Having a waistband you can cinch is clutch too. These handled leg day with ease- no restrictions! The woven fabric feels great to the touch and wicks moisture crazy fast. If you are looking for shorts you can wear to the gym, but also can somehow look good enough to rock a polo with- these are them. Very impressive!

5 AndreaL
[ These shorts are amazing. I ’ m a big fan of the 5 ” inseam, combined with how light the short is – it ’s perfect for your runs or any other workouts. They don ’ t feel baggy and there aren ’ t any distractions when wearing them, they ’ re exactly how a performance article should feel. The Dri- Fit technology works better than ever as it keeps you dry throughout your workout. Another benefit is that after a wash, they dry very quickly and this is without using a dryer- making them ready to use with a quick turnaround. The waistband is a great touch as it keeps them in place and not sliding down, and then the drawstrings are there in case you need. Great shorts for workouts, however I can see myself wearing these in the warm summer days casually too. Just a great short overall, highly recommend.

5 CheriM661658909
Great fit, wears well& lots of compliments. However the orange[ Monarch] color seems more of a rusty fall orange then a summertime orange that we thought it was when ordering online. Somewhat disappointed but will keep them. The Baltic Blue& Lavender[ Rush Fuchsia] seem true to color.

5 Neil95309874
Favorite shorts I own. I have worn these a handful of times and they are I don ’ t have one negative thing to say about them! I ’ ll wear them on runs and just keep them on for whatever activity or errands I do after that. The zippered pocket in the back is great. It is big enough to hold an iPhone 13 pro but not too big where it ’s moving around a lot. The zipper opens and closes smoothly without any snags. Definitely want more of these!

I first started buying under armour with Christmas money from my family as a kid in 2004 for the first time and now 25 years later I ’ m buying a bunch of stuff bc the quality is impeccable, I still have polyester boxers from under armour since 2012, I ’ ve never had any others companies boxers last 13 years and not look grunge

If you haven ’ t tried these new compression shorts, you will absolutely notice the difference. Admittedly, I purchased my last pair of compression shorts years ago. The fabric today seems to be stretchier which is more comfortable than trying to squeeze into my old pairs. I also really like the wide waistband.

5 JSSATC
I ’ ve bought these compression shorts for my boyfriend in black and gray on multiple occasions. He has at least 3 pair of each color. They fit him well. Give him compression and freedom of movement. They wash and wear well.

As soon as you put them on you can feel the quality of the material. The biggest compliment is how soft the material is. It dries very quickly. It dries faster than any other brand I ’ ve worn. Having 2 side pockets help while running and you want to bring your phone along.

5 Avester
Got these for my son, he loves them, super comfortable, light and has pockets, that was his favorite feature. The fabric is breathable and easy for him to more around. The is easy to wash and dry, no shrinkage.

5 David
These shorts are super lightweight. They are breezy and made for running comfortably. I used these for a run in the track and on the treadmill and I can move fluidly and easily. Not restraints. Better than the shorts I ’ ve used with other competitors

5 BeautyReviewer
[ The Women ’s Chaser 7 ” Short 2. 0 is my new go- to shorts for working out. There are days when I procrastinate my exercise routine. On those days, I have to drag myself off the couch to work out. These shorts, however, are a great motivator. I find myself looking forward to wearing these shorts to work out. The shorts are fun and comfortable. They feel great. The material is thin and lightweight which makes movement easy and comfortable. The shorts move with me. The material is highly breathable, furthering the comfort level. I love that there are pockets on both sides as well as a small pocket slot in the back. The fit is true to size. I ’ m a size small and it fit me perfectly well. There is also a drawstring to tighten or loosen if necessary. The style is sporty and looks perfect for working out. The color is neutral, yet looks lively. The design of the leg opening, along with the material is what I like best. It ’s designed in a way that allows maximum movement.

5 Lfab
[ I really like these chaser shorts. They are the right length to keep everything covered. The lehth prevents chafing. They are a wonderful light weight fabric that is so smooth. They run a little large, which is OK.

Love the Dash shorts. The shorts fit perfectly and are very breathable and lightweight. The shorts are silky soft, very breathable and light as a feather. I highly recommend. The pockets could use a zipper or some sort of closure. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

5 Twinkletoes
[ The Brooks Dash 2- in- 1 shorts performed extremely well both on road and trail runs. They fit true to size and the fabric was excellent for my typical 6 mile runs. The built in compression shorts were ideal for hot runs and prevented chaffing during humid days. Like all Brooks products the materials used in the shorts is high quality, performed well against sweaty abuse and washes. The shorts looked new even after a month of runs and washes.

5 Jon
[ The compression liner provides great support and fees secure. I like the clean minimalist design. Thank you Brooks for sending me this free pair to test.

5 Haileybell
[ Got these shorts for my husband and they immediately became a new favorite. I ’ m ordering more for his birthday! He ’s tall and lean but does CrossFit in addition to running, so he has thick thighs. Finding shorts/pants that fit in both the waist and the thighs has been a challenge, but these fit the bill. Some bullet points:- Waistband is non- pinching- Liner fits nicely, reduces chafing- Athletic sizing/fit- Mobility is good while wearing- Feel very supported Will absolutely be purchasing more and am going to look to see if there ’s a women ’s version too!

5 MC13
[ I bought these for cross training, but have worn them mostly for running lately. I tend to stay away from the 2 in 1 for running, but have really enjoyed these! They are very comfortable and breathable. I live in the south and they held up well in extreme heat and were very breathable and did not get soaked or heavy with sweating. In the gym, they stood up to cross training and lifting heavy without any issues. Will definitely be adding a few more of these to my rotation!

[ If you ’ re someone who likes wearing compression shorts under your shorts, these are a must as it is the perfect 2 in 1 combination. The liner on the inside is very comfortable and most importantly not restrictive. Wore these at the gym and felt amazing for leg day. The liner does a great job with compression and the shorts themselves are light and flexible. The liner also features a phone pocket, I typically put my car keys in there as I don ’ t like leaving them on the ground, but I ’ ve also put my plus sized phone a few times and had no issues at all. When wearing them they feel sleek, supportive and most importantly light. I see myself wearing these on both hot and cold days, even for workouts outside of the gym. Highly recommend them, they ’ ll help you take your workouts to the next level.

5 ChrisK956377907

I love these shorts because the baggy basketball shorts being used to workout are over and I am so happy. Plus, I 'm older and need to dress my age and not try to look younger. I like the lining as well and I do not have to purchase under shorts for them. Thank you.

[ I own a lot of different brand biker shorts and theses are the first ones that actually do not rise up. I could run, lift, and cross train and never have to do the annoying pull down that I have to do with my other high- end brand shorts. I usually do a medium in biker shorts but the small actually fit perfect on my pear shaped body. What really stood out to me first was the rubber material on the inner legs which made the shorts stay in place. The shorts are super soft and comfortable. They also keep in my stomach which is nice. I took these on several runs and they kept me sweat free. Highly recommend!

5 AmandasCool
[ These short tights are great compared to other similar style shorts I own. They do fit slightly snug on the legs, but fine on my waist. The material feels nice to the touch and is stretchy. They are comfortable to wear on runs. The seams on the inside bottom legs are seamless. There is physically no seam that I see. There is also a clear grippy material on the bottom of the legs that is awesome for keeping the shorts from riding up. It ’s smooth and not itchy or irritating. The pockets could be a little wider, but they are super deep, which makes up for the width. I love that! Nothings worse than trying to shove your phone in a pocket that ’s too small only for it to flop out. Overall, I really like these shorts for running in!

5 LizzzReviews
[ These shorts were the perfect addition to my routine. They fit true to size( ordered my usual size- small). Plus, they do not budge! No rolling down or having to re- adjust a million times! The fabric itself is soft, keeps me dry, and the color is so cute! I love that these shorts stay on so well and still have pockets. I run daily and these shorts are now one of my top favorites to run with!

5 RunnerMama
[ I love these shorts! I got out for several shorter runs and then some long runs in these and they really held up great. The seams are n't rough or uncomfortable, and the length is just right to cover the part of my thighs that tends to chafe on long runs. I like the rise on these, and they look really nice with a sports bra or with a top. The light purple color is really beautiful!

Frequently Asked Questions For Best Running Shorts To Prevent Chafing

When searching for running shorts to prevent chafing, consider features such as moisture-wicking materials that help keep you dry, flat seams to minimize friction, and a comfortable fit that allows for freedom of movement. Look for styles that include built-in liners or compression shorts for added support and to reduce skin-on-skin contact. Additionally, consider shorts with a longer inseam, as they can provide more coverage and help prevent chafing between the thighs.

The best materials for running shorts to avoid chafing are typically lightweight, breathable fabrics that wick moisture away from the skin. Look for options made from polyester, nylon, or blends that include spandex for stretch. These materials not only help keep you dry but also provide a comfortable fit that moves with your body, reducing the risk of irritation during your runs.

Different styles of running shorts can significantly impact chafing prevention. For instance, 2-in-1 shorts often feature an inner layer that provides additional support and reduces friction, while traditional running shorts may offer more freedom of movement. The choice between longer and shorter inseams can also affect coverage and comfort, so it's essential to choose a style that aligns with your running habits and personal preferences.

Yes, there are running shorts specifically designed for long-distance runners that focus on preventing chafing. These shorts often incorporate advanced moisture-wicking technologies, ergonomic designs, and seamless construction to enhance comfort during extended runs. Additionally, many long-distance options feature features like built-in liners or compression elements to minimize movement and friction, making them ideal for those who log significant miles.

Fit is crucial when selecting running shorts to prevent chafing. Look for a snug but comfortable fit that allows for movement without being overly tight, as excess fabric can lead to rubbing and irritation. Additionally, consider the waistband design; a soft, adjustable waistband can enhance comfort and help keep the shorts in place while you run, further reducing the risk of chafing.
