behind the design
Built as an all-around performer and everyday running staple, the Middle Short is a silhouette we've been refining since the very beginning. It's our go-to short for crushing the majority of our mileage and bestseller. Made from our ultra-light AFO stretch woven fabric, the Middle Short wicks, breathes, and dries super quickly and has an integrated brief liner and two pockets for your essential carrying needs.

AFO
Ultra-light and fast drying, AFO is a stretch woven made from recycled polyester. We use it across our Singlets, Splits, Middle Shorts, and 2-In-1 Traverse Shorts for high-performance styles that feel lighter-than-air.
Shop All AFOsustainability
Our AFO fabric is composed of 88% recycled polyester. We use high-grade recycled polyester made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic like rPET (a form of recyclable plastic commonly found in single-use bottles and containers) to reduce the impact of our apparel without sacrificing on performance, durability or comfort.
AFO fabric is also bluesign® certified meaning it is free from harmful chemicals and is fabricated in a way that meets a high environmental standard.
