Perfect For Running And Being Seen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the pockets, which are always useful for carrying gels, my phone, and other essentials. And the color works great for running on the street because it’s very reflective.

Comfortable, Lightweight, Fit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally race shorts that fit my thunder thighs fits really well and doesn’t feel too tight around the legs like a lot of running shorts do. Comfortable, lightweight, and easy to move in.

Comfortable And Adjustable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the color, the size was ideal, as were the shape and the cut

Pretty Good Shorts

Love the gel pockets! I don't have to carry my running belt anymore.

Breathable Lightweight Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm more of a tights guy, but these shorts were really nice, and had me wanting to wear them again.

Pockets!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So many pockets! Has the one zipper and then the four cinched outside pockets- could easily fit a few gels and your keys. Will be great for summer long runs

Incredible Shorts!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing shorts. I really like the fit and the fabric — they’re very comfortable, and the look matches perfectly with the singlet.

All Around Short

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Always a solid short for any workout or run or even walk!

Rc Essential Short 5

Lightweight and comfortable. The zippered pocket at the back is the best feature of this shorts. It can fit my Samsung Galaxy S25 ultra and a couple of gels. My keys fit on the smaller hip pocket. And the contents of the pockets don't bounce around. I don't need a running belt anymore!
