Good Short Shorts

I read a review that said "Sky's out thighs out!" and though "why not?". These are SHORT. And I love 'em. But disclaimer: the storage is limited and you can't run with a phone in your pocket. My phone fit in the back pocket but it flopped around so much it was untenable. So, these are for minimalist runs where you need little storage. The only short I have so far that I might like more is my Rabbit Tried 'n True but those are much heavier/larger. Side note: I bought a pair of Brooks shorts from a place called Run Pro in Eugene like 20 years ago and I still own them (they have zero storage so I don't run in them super often to be fair). Brooks has honestly done me good and I am running on a pair of Ghost 15's and it's my favorite shoe as well for comfort.

Bring Back The Stretchy Boxer-briefs Liner!

What happened to the spandex boxer briefs liner that the 3'' Sherpa used to have? These have been my favorite running shorts, but no more. This briefs liner is not as good. It is mesh, so that is an improvement, but the only plus to this new liner. There's nowhere near enough room in the front, they feel like I put on women's shorts! It leaves me smashed and spilling out. Separation from my inner thigh is non-negotiable in this part of the world, where morning runs are hot and at 100% humidity. You have made a chafing device and I will not subject myself to the torture. I had to return this and I will have to look elsewhere now for running shorts. :(

These shorts are awesome! Fit great, liner is very comfortable and holds things in place. Sky's out thighs out!

Fits very well with a good waist band that holds well.

Got This Right

THIS....is the way shorts are supposed to look and fit. They look and feel like running shorts, not basketball shorts passed off as running shorts. Tell the folks in R&D, "Good Job!"

Liner Ripped

These shorts were great at first. I loved the material and how light weight they were. Unfortunately the inside liner ripped and no longer kept my manhood in place. I ended up removing the liner completely by cutting it out, and now just use them with tight boxerbriefs underneath. They are still very comfortable and I enjoy them. Just disappointing to spend this much money on shorts for "quality" running attire, only to have it rip within 3 months of purchase.

Very good running shorts. They fit well and the drawstring helps to secure them. Love the way they look on me.

Men's Shorts, But Work Great On Women, Too - I've Purchased Three!

Bought these not realizing they were MENS shorts! Found another pair on clearance and had to dig to find another color since I was looking in women's apparel. I have purchased three pair now, they are very comfortable, and the XS men's in this style fit only slightly larger than the XS-S I typically buy in Women's.

Awesome Shorts

My go to shorts for the long runs. The pockets are excellent for carrying the gels.

Meh!

They're okay. I was some what disappointed that the waist has little stretch to it. You need to rely on using the internal draw string to keep them on your waist. I was after basic 3 inch short with a place to put my car key fob. For the money these sorts re not worth it.

Feels Like Nothing!

Great pair of shorts, feels like I'm wearing nothing. I'm a smaller man (5'5, 120lbs) and the XS was still a bit big, but the drawstrings make it all work.

Fantastic Shorts

Light breeze comfortable with plenty of great pockets - lovely shorts

My first pair of shorty shorts and they feel like I’m wearing nothing. Light weight, move well. Great for tempo and speed work. Pockets hold nutrition and necessities in place. I’ll pick up another pair at some point.

Very fashionable, lightweight and fit really well! Thoroughly enjoy my new shorts! Highly recommend them!
