Reviews

Strength to Summit

"This is my first pair of summit chasers. I’ve mostly worn them so far for strength sessions but look forward to taking them for a run soon. The color is fun and they fit my muscular thighs and seemingly won’t ride up despite their shorter length."

Jaime L. (5/5)

My new favorite running shorts

"I love these shorts. The pockets, the movement. . . all of it. 115lbs/ 5'3" and the XS fit perfectly. What I don't love is they are sold out in my size and there only a few colors. If someone over at Rabbit could take care of that. . . :)"

Kity (5/5)

Great for any activity

"Loved these on our recent hike and run on the AT. Very comfy even in a headstand!"

Rebecca H. (5/5)

Super Cute and light!

"I love how these shorts look with the UPF deflector 2. 0. Such a cute combo. I love the length of the 2. 5 insane, and the lightness of the material in the shorts."

Jennifer W. (5/5)

Just OK

"Daughter has enjoyed running in these but draw string comes out of shorts and gets tangled in the wash , every time, which is annoying"

David M. (3/5)

I wanted to like them

"I am not a fan of these. The material is stiff and they are not too flattering with how they lay. I am 5 5" and 130 pounds and bought xs. Will be returning them."

Dawn (3/5)

The best!

"Love the pockets! They look super cute and are incredibly comfy. Could definitely be used for racing!:"

Theresa N. (5/5)

Love these shorts!

"My go-to shorts for most running and recovering days. Love the pockets, quick drying, light weight, comfortable - it has it all. I love all of my Rabbit shorts and these are a consistent daily favorite. Thanks Rabbit!"

Sarah (5/5)

Nice shorts!

"These shorts are super comfortable. I love the lightweight fabric. I’ve been only running in Lulu shorts for the past 12 years because I could not find any better. Well, Rabbit is better. Material is comfortable and the liner fits perfectly. I did not have any riding up or chafing. I’ve tried every brand out there so take my word for it."

Kristi B. (5/5)

Love

"Very similar to the old mountain climber shorts, which are my all time favorite. Little longer rise and seem slightly bigger all around, but love these too! Still a small - 5'3" and 123 pounds."
