Best Boxer Shorts For Running

[ Extremely comfortable very durable high quality shorts. Running with these shorts is extremely comfortable and the quality is amazing. I would highly recommend the black/grey color as it matches with everything. The zippers on the shorts are an amazing touch for storing small accessories. Favorite touch to the shorts are the small reflective hits near the waistband.

[ I have traditionally been a road runner, but have recently ventured off- road onto trails, and really like the functionality and feel of my new 5 ” trail shorts! They fit just as great as my usual “ road ” Nike Flex Stride shorts, but have an upgraded, more durable front paneling to protect against any stray branches you might come across when navigating tight trail runs, as well as a more flexible and breathable material across the remainder of the short. With an inner lining built in, they kept me cool and dry while on my run just like the rest of my favorite Nike 2- in- 1 shorts. I also really appreciate the effort to provide increased utility support with five pockets and four elastic loops for my essentials. The loops on both sides were more than enough to carry my towel and water bottle while on the trail, the key pocket kept my keys securely in place, and the new rear pocket with horizontal zipper( as opposed to the vertical zipper on my old Flex Stride shorts) made it much easier to secure and access my phone. Thank you SO much for the new pocket, this might have been my favorite feature/upgrade, the older rear pockets with a vertical zipper are a daily struggle for me lol I might go with a slightly longer pair if the path runs through thick brush, a pair of 7 ” shorts might protect the thighs a bit more, but overall I ’ d say these shorts are a great option for keeping you comfortably on the move while in the trail!

[ These shorts are all different levels of awesome and innovation. Made from sustainably sourced materials and they have all day comfort! The material is very stretchy, breathable, and lightweight. Which is exactly what you want from a pair of running/workout shorts. The utility of the shorts matches the great comfort with deep zip closure pockets on both sides of the shorts, there are two loops on both hips that are made from almost a bungee cord like material that works well for holding things such as, a shirt or towel or even work well as pull tabs to pull the shorts up! I ’ m not a huge fan of the inner lining of the shorts, it kinda gives me swimming trunk vibes. I noticed a slight “ hug ” from the lining when I first put the shorts on but that feeling quickly went away and these felt like I could keep them on all day and sleep in them. I love the camo print on the bottom and back of the shorts, but my favorite detail is definitely the little subtle Nike Trail logo. All together these shorts have uber amounts of utility, are super comfortable, and being 5 ” they show off the hamstrings a little so what ’s not to love.

[ I was honestly expecting the short to be a run- of- the- mill short with cool graphics and maybe more sturdy fabric, but I was amazed by all the little( and important) details included. The first thing that caught my eye was the zipper back pocket. The zipper actually has a band that allows you to open the pocket without having the fiddle around too much. On those extra long runs, that definitely helps! The other thing I was impressed by were the elastic loops on the side of the shorts. Usually when it gets too hot on a run, I take my shirt off and tuck it in the waistband which can be hazardous for reasons you might imagine. The loops make it really easy to take layers off without worrying about revealing too much. Lastly, I was amazed by how lightweight it is. The fabric is generally lightweight and vented, except for the areas you would want ideal wind protection. Overall, I ’ m impressed by all the features that were packed in the shorts, especially at the price point it ’s marketed toward.
