All about the Groundwork
Breathable, moisture-wicking fabric provides light compression with an unnoticeable feel in stride

Stays put
Silicone grippers on the hem prevent the fabric from riding up + keep the short in place during high-output movement

Unfussy + secure fit
Ergonomic waistband design contours the hips for optimal comfort in stride while power mesh lining offers secure support

Infinity drawcord
Allows for an adaptable fit + will not get tugged out in the wash

Pocket it
Two deep side pockets can easily accommodate the largest phone sizes (plus case) + minimize any movement or bounce

Keep it separated
An internal waistband pocket can stash card/cash or key

Back pocket duals as pass-thru
A back pocket can be used to store nutrition or as a pass-thru to secure a top or lightweight layer

sustainability

Groundwork Knit is made using a premium grade nylon that has a significantly tighter woven filament than standard synthetics. Tighter filaments mean less microfiber shedding in the wash-cycle, plus greater durability of the garment (longer lifespan, more wearing).

Groundwork Knit fabric is also bluesign® certified meaning it is free from harmful chemicals and is fabricated in a way that meets a high environmental standard.

Amazing shorts

I own 10+ pairs of these (across 3 different style iterations). They’re amazing! Skin-like with deep pockets and a good grip. The 2024 iteration seems a bit tighter in the waistband. My regular size still fits, but just a note.

Best running shorts of all time

I have tried so many shorts, thought I liked them, but have always had to pull them up or down to stay in place. This is the only pair of shorts I’ve found that stays in place for every run- even a marathon! They’re long enough to prevent chafing, tight enough to stay in place, and great high rise without digging in to my sides. The perfect shorts.

Comfy running with great pockets

I already have a few pair of these, so could not resist the sale pricing to get another pair. I use these Janji shorts for short to medium length runs, so far up to about half-marathon distance. I will try them for longer distances as I train for my ultra. I have not tried them for longer distances. The legs stay in place, they don't bind, and I don't have to pull them out of my nether regions. I do use body lubricant (Glide) for anything over 10 miles, but have felt no need to do so for the shorter runs. I'm not sure I need to lube for the longer runs, but why take the chance?

Great comfort and feel. The pockets are an excellent feature with plenty of space for a phone and fuel.
