thigh goblins!

These go straight to the crotch when I run in a bad way. It looks very ridiculous.
Otherwise I like them and hoping they are better for other activities.

So good I had my crew wash them for the final 31 miles

I don't usually write reviews and instead rave (or rant) to my friends about gear. However, these shorts are absolutely fantastic. So fantastic, in fact, that I wore them for miles 1-47 of a 100-miler, carrying my phone in the back pocket, and had my crew wash them in the sink to put back on at mile 69 to the finish. I love how light and airy they are, the split is the perfect amount of hot girl leg when hauling or in the wind, and the waistband pockets do not budge, even with an iPhone 17 in a big case! I measure a 28" natural waist, 39" full hip, 145 lbs 5'9", and have quad-goddess thighs, and the SMALL fit great. I could possibly size up to the medium, but then the pockets wouldn't function as well. The liner is the only part of the shorts that I would slightly modify: the cut is ever so slightly too high on the hip, but that might be a "me" problem with needing the small for the pockets to be fully functional. Otherwise, these are elite shorts and I will be buying more to avoid having to ask my crew to perform janky mid-race gear washing!

Best shorts ever

There is nothing in this life I rave about more than these shorts. They are my favorite thing I own and I love them so so much! The pockets make it easy to bring everything I need on a run and they’re so airy and comfortable! I have these in smalls and mediums but I tend to reach for my mediums for a little bit of a less restrictive fit while running.

The only running short you will ever need forever and ever

Just bought my 3rd pair not bc the first 2 aren't amazing but bc I am terrified they will change these puppies and they wont be the same (like with all good clothing). These are the only running shorts I will ever wear again, hands down. comfy, fits me at every stage of my 28 day cycle and hold up SO WELL. the running belt inside is just added bonus. I literally live in these shorts year round. They are snug at first but flex to you! and they make the booty look GOOOOOOOD

Some great features but not a good fit (for me)

The pockets are fantastic! Unfortunately for me… these shorts have too much of a side split and I have thicker thighs. This means the fabric bunches and creates a lot of chafing for me. I’m planning to sew the sides up more so I can hopefully get more use! I want to love them but it may be for my body style they just don’t work. In comparison - I wear the men’s afo 5” and love them in size small. No chafing! Female - 32 and 125 lbs.

Smaller than they used to be

This style of short is my favorite ever. So comfy and great in the heat. I have a couple pairs of multi shorts from a couple of years ago that fit great. The new colors I just bought fit much smaller even though they’re the same size. I could use a size up in these new colors because they fit very tight.

Good shorts

Love the color and the fabric, but the waist band is uncomfortably right to pull on over my (not wide) hips. Once up it's okay, but they don't have much give I ended up cutting off the drawstring since the waist band is so snug, the drawstring is unneeded. The olive green color is lovely!

Just wore these for an 80 mile backpacking trip

Just wore these for an 80 mile backpacking trip through The Sierra Nevada’s. Super lightweight and durable. Worked perfect for dipping in lakes and rivers and getting back on the trail. These were the only shorts that I did not chafe in. Hallelujah!!!

Love these shorts and all the extra pockets. The only thing I was a little bummed about was that I got the grey shorts and thought sweat wouldn’t show too too much but it’s very obvious.

Returning buyer

I bought a few pairs 3 years ago and purchased a new pair (2026). I love these shorts and I appreciate the updated fit - the side split doesn't seem to go up as high on the updated version, and that is a welcome fit change! Overall very comfortable and flattering.

These shorts are made well. They’re just too bulky for my liking. I probably will end up gifting them to someone else.

Sizing is way off

The shorts seem nice but the sizing is way off. I followed the fit guide exactly and I could not even get these over my thighs, even though I should of been at the lower end of the size range according to the size chart. They also took about 2.5 weeks to arrive.

These shorts were better than expected

These shorts were better than expected. I love the material as I feel covered but its so light weight I don't notice it. The waist band is tighter than expected so maybe size up if you don't like feeling constricted. As a thick thigh girlie, these don't ride up when I'm running and thats a first. Almost don't need to wear anitchafe.

Best shorts

These shorts are the best. Only non-spandex shorts I've found that I can load up with no bounce (4 gels + phone). I've worn them for lots of very long runs, including 10+ hours during an ultra with no chafing. They also provide a bit more coverage than I expect from 3" shorts, which is nice if you are tall! :)
