I would give these 6 stars if I could

These are my favorite shorts I own!! The pockets are secure but still super comfortable, they are flowy and light but still have good coverage, they are so flattering but still a very technical piece of gear. You can fit so much stuff in these but hardly even tell when you're running because the pocket system is so secure and well-designed, my phone doesn't even bounce in the back pocket.
I own three of these now (two from previous seasons) and I love the fit tweaks they have made compared to previous seasons. They fit true to size, I usually size up to a M in the AFO Middle shorts but I prefer my suggested size chart size S in these. (5'6 135 pounds, waist 28)
Seriously the holy grail of shorts, treat yourself and just buy a pair if you're on the fence. I like the neutrals but would love to see more fun colors and patterns! Gold star perfect shorts 10/10 thank you janji

Perfect length!

I’m 5’6 120 lbs and the small fits perfectly. I have been searching for a short the perfect length not too long but not so short that butt shows out the bottom. 10/10 no notes.

These are literally the best running shorts. Very lightweight & loose feeling. Doesn’t parachute or ride up.

Perfect trail marathon shorts

I have been wearing these shorts to train for my upcoming trail marathon and plan to wear them on race day. They are so comfortable I forget I'm wearing them! Having all of the pocket space is a life saver on long runs, and the waist band doesn't feel weighed down even when the pockets are loaded with gels, snacks, etc.

The waistband is a bit more snug than my other Janji shorts so some people may want to size up for comfort. They are also a little long IMO and I would love a slightly shorter version, but these are still great!

My Favorite Shorts I Have and Will Ever Own

Please bring these back!!! These shorts are absolutely genius. They’re comfortable, flattering, and functional. I can’t even begin to explain how particular I am about trail running shorts but I literally wear these into the ground and I really need a new pair. The fabric is light and soft, and the waistband easily holds my phone, keys, fuel etc.. so well that I lose my phone all the time (forget it’s in my waistband haha). I get so many compliments - I swear these are the best shorts I’ve ever worn!

Perfect Trail Shorts

I love these. The integrated waistband pockets are genius, and there is no bounce when stuffed full of fuels. I’d love some little pull-tabs on the outsides to make getting stuff in/out easier while racing in the next version. I was able to get my normal size and found the liner to fit nice and snugly for good coverage during windy conditions. The fabric feels weightless even when completely soaked in the rain. My only gripe is that you NEVER seem to restock!!

Where have these been all my life??

Did my first run in these shorts yesterday and holy cow. Phone in the waistband with no issues, plus my key and chapstick and they'll hold so much more. I can't wait to take them for a long run. They're 3", but they feel like 5" shorts and I absolutely love it. I'm a sweaty runner, and these barely held any of it, ending the 6 mile workout almost dry except for the pocket my phone was trapping heat in. Can't wait for other shorts to wear out so I can buy some more, these are truly fantastic.

Love the pockets!

Great shorts! Very comfy, I love a full split, and the pockets comfortably hold a lot, but do look quite funny if you're wearing a shirt that goes down past your hips with full pockets.
