With a sleek, minimalist design and high- quality materials, these shorts are both durable and versatile, easily transitioning from sports to everyday wear.

Great pair of shorts. Fits great and very breathable and flexible. Shorts have been worn playing basketball, practicing baseball and worn casually. Fits any occasion. Great quality and appears durable.

5 Petey
Shorts are very comfortable. I wear them when I run, and thus far they have held up nicely for several 4- 6 mile runs. As the weather warms I will definitely try them on longer outings. They do not ride up and the interior lining has not created hot spots. The pocket size if extremely convenient for carrying needed items on the run. They compare extremely well with the name brand shorts I have come to rely on for running, and I will definitely look for more of these VRST 7 '' shorts. The shorts do run a little larger than the other big name brands I have purchased. Consider purchasing one size smaller.

5 Ian H 123
I ’ ve been wearing the Nike Men ’s Dri- FIT Challenger 7 '' Brief- Lined Shorts for a few weeks now and they ’ ve quickly become a staple in my workout rotation. The fit is just right—athletic but not too tight—and the built- in brief liner offers excellent support without feeling restrictive. The Dri- FIT material keeps me cool and dry, even during intense runs or strength training sessions. I also appreciate the 7- inch inseam—it strikes the perfect balance between coverage and mobility. The side pockets are roomy enough for keys or a phone( though a zip pocket would be a bonus), and the waistband sits comfortably without riding up or digging in. Whether I ’ m hitting the gym, going for a run, or just wearing them casually on hot days, these shorts check all the boxes. Definitely recommend grabbing a pair—or two.

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.

5 VictorM124664765
These are the training shorts I 've always wanted. I generally hate shorts with liners because the elastic in the leg holes is irritating and annoying. I usually opt for linerless shorts and athletic boxer briefs. These are everything in one. The benefit of these shorts is that the outer shorts are attached to the inner liner. The pockets on these shorts stays put. I have another pair of Nike running shorts and the pocket liner pokes out the bottom when I put my phone in there. So annoying. The only thing I 'd change is the advertised phone pocket in the back is much too small for my iPhone Max. Otherwise these are perfect.

[ The Mens Breakaway Shorts from Brooks come in the eye catching Neo Limeade shade of green. This pop of color will help you stand out to any passerby while you ’ re out training for the next race, or just getting a few miles in. The upper mid- thigh length design with the split side hem helps to have no issues with chaffing or fabric irritation. The fabric is a polyester spandex mix that is wonderfully breathable and can give and stretch whenever needed. It comes with two small pockets for a key or card storage. My very favorite features that stood out above all were the elastic/drawstring waist band and the added inner liner. Those two kept me feel secure throughout my run without added fussing or adjustment.

5 Zrunner
[ What can I saw. These 3 ” breakaway shorts are nothing short of sexy and functional. For more experienced runners, you begin to notice that longer lengths shorts become obtrusive and somewhat restrictive. I found myself typically running in an old pair of 5 ” PT shorts that I got issues from the Navy. I thought 5 ” was sufficient. Then I tried a pair of the 3 ” breakaways and my goodness, what a difference. These 3 ” breakaways make you feel faster, stronger, and they look stylish. The added bonus of the 3 ” length is that the shorts don ’ t feel restrictive or obtrusive particularly during long distances runs. These shorts feel, well, freeing. I ’ d recommended these not only to more experienced, seasoned runners, but also to new runners who want that “ seasoned runner ” look and feel!

5 Jared
[ I recently went on a trip with the family in warm sunny Florida and I found myself getting great use out of my Brooks Men ’s shorts. The lightweight fabric kept me cool and comfortable the whole week. Whether I was on a trail run or running around with my kiddos in the parks, I was super comfortable! I didn ’ t experience any chaffing and I loved the color.

[ These shorts are now a permanent fixture in my training wardrobe because they are light and moisture wicking without riding up. The lining doesnt bunch or stick to the shorts themselves and while the pockets are small, the back pocket is a nice addition. Small pockets mean less bouncing and hitting my legs so overall that ’s a plus.

5 RonB
Fits as expected. Pockets hold gels and snacks for long runs. Zip butt pocket fits large phone. Not excessive flop when carrying gels and phone. Fun color.

[ Impressed with these shorts. They ’ re lightweight and super comfy. The included inner brief liner is convenient, but I generally wear sports trunks while running anyways, to avoid chafing.

[ The Brooks Men's Core Journey 7 '' Running Shorts have been a great addition to my runs. They are lightweight and comfortable, and I barely notice them while I ’ m moving. The waistband sits comfortably without shifting, and I don ’ t have to mess with it once I start. The built- in liner is supportive and keeps me cool, even on longer runs. I have to say, the pockets are great. It ’s so convenient to have space for the essentials without feeling weighed down or distracted. These shorts are comfortable, practical, and designed with runners in mind. I ’ ve really enjoyed wearing them and will definitely keep reaching for them on my runs.

[ The Brooks Men ’s Journey 7 '' Running Shorts are a game- changer for any runner seeking the perfect blend of comfort, flexibility, and functionality. From the moment I put them on, I was impressed by how lightweight and supportive they feel. The internal lining provides just the right amount of support without being restrictive, offering a sensation of almost “ nothing at all ” while running—making every stride feel effortless. The flexibility of the fabric is excellent, allowing for full range of motion without any discomfort or chafing, even during longer runs. What truly stands out is the thoughtful design, with several pockets placed both front and back. These pockets are incredibly convenient for storing essentials like gels, keys, or a phone, ensuring that you can keep your hands free and still have easy access to your items. It ’s a small detail, but it makes a big difference in the overall experience. As for sizing, these shorts fit as expected, offering a true- to- size fit that ’s neither too tight nor too loose. The waist is secure without feeling constrictive, and the overall cut provides a flattering yet comfortable fit. After several washes, they retain their shape and color, making them easy to care for and durable. Overall, the Brooks Men ’s Journey 7 '' Running Shorts combine top- notch comfort, flexibility, and practicality, making them a must- have for runners who value both performance and convenience.

[ The Brooks Journey running shorts are exceptionally comfortable, with a fit that feels secure yet flexible. The design is sleek and modern, with a well- placed zippered back pocket that was large enough to fit my phone. The fabric is lightweight, breathable, and quick- drying so these performed when when I used them for intermediate length runs as well as casual workouts. I found the internal lining comfortable and also appreciate the wide, soft waistband which stays in place without digging in or causing discomfort.
