Good short, great value.
This is a good, no-frills running short. It's not made of a stretchy material like so many running shorts are now, but that explains why it costs much less than others. This short does have a moisture wicking liner brief and overall it is a comfortable pair of shorts. The inseam length hit right above the knee which is how I like my shorts to fit. They are not too long and not too short. If you are looking for a basic running short that is high-quality then this is the short for you. I use mine for my daily 5-6 mile runs and they work just great.
Even better than Patagonia
I guess they're intended to be running shorts, I wear them to the gym. Very comfortable, lightweight and well-fitted.
New favorite running short.
With longer shorts you sometimes end up with bunching when you run hard. These have proven me wrong. Longer inseam yet stay firmly in place when on the go. Soft feel to the fabric and drawstring surviving ok after a few months of use. Worn in some pretty high humidity and heat and no worse for wear.
