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

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.

I have thicc (tm) thighs that tend to eat every pair of shorts I throw on. These don’t budge or chafe and I don’t have to fix them during my run. I have several pairs and just ordered 2 more because it’s the only thing I want to wear.
The title is the review. These are my favorite shorts for running.
I never have to think about them on a run -- the legs stay don't roll up, the waist doesn't fall down, the pockets keep everything in place. The mid-rise waist makes it comfortable to wear with a shirt (it doesn't feel like you have a bunch of extra fabric) or just a sports bra.
My only desire is a 5-inch inseam with all the fun patterns!
I needed running shorts that would protect my thighs from chaffing during thru hikes. These shorts don’t ride up, stay put, and feel very comfortable! Janji doesn’t disappoint.
I had never worn shorts leggings before and wasn’t sure how I would like them to run. I love these!!! They don’t ride up at all and I keep my phone in one pocket and my AirPods case in the other. I don’t use the elastic drawstrings- maybe if I had gotten a larger size (which I sometimes think I should have ) I would. I’m 5’5 and 130lbs and got the medium.
Great sport short for any activity. Love the deep pockets and no slip grip so the shorts don’t ride up. True to size fit and strong enough to not slip down with items in pockets when running.
I love these shorts! I have no issues whatsoever in them. I just purchased my 7th pair (because I wanted the new design, nothing wrong with my old pairs). The only thing I’ve noticed is that sizing has slowly changed over the past few releases. Most of my older shorts are in M, but I’m officially a L now - might be worth ordering both sizes if you’re borderline like me.
best shorts ever
Great fit for my curvy body. The material is wonderful. I love the pockets on the side. My favorite go to gear for running.
Fit great and doesn't get clingy. Love having two pockets and feeling sleek when I run!
I love everything about these shorts. They’re the only ones I like. The length, material, and grip on inside of end of leg openings is perfect. I buy these in every color I can!
