Reviews
Comfortable shorts and plenty of storage
"I had these shorts on during many long runs, including a 50k trail run in humid weather. The shorts fit well, were comfortable, no chaffing (very important to me for long runs), and had plenty of storage to carry gels."

Excellent (minus drawstring)
"Even with a basic shoelace knot, the drawstring has come out in the wash - twice. I’ll need a more sophisticated knot. Otherwise A+ shorts. Comfortable, great pocket space, and (so far) durable."

Great for the storage
"The best thing about this short is the usable storage. Have done daily runs up to 2 hour runs. I can stash gels, keys, even a small soft flask. Material is durable. Would buy again."

Perfect running short
"Love the material, has a nice weight; does not ride up when running. the liner has a great fit. the pockets are many and in the right places for easy access plus a zip pocket for keys. will be purchasing more."

Best shorts ever
"Without a doubt, my new favorite running shorts! The fit is impeccable and it doesn’t ride up ever! The leg pockets even work well enough to hold my phone during trail runs. I couldn’t be happier with that"

Awesome gel space
"I love these for carrying gels! New faves!!!"

Almost there
"Shorts themselves are super comfortable and light. The pockets are almost fantastic, but the spacing does not allow for standard 500ml bottles like other waist pocketed shorts do. And the pockets being outside the drawstring instead of inside make them easier to access but not as reliable for bulkier items. It's great for gels, not much else."

Great Long Run Shorts
"I have a few long runs in these shorts now and ran my first half-marathon in them a little over a week ago. Really easy to store all your gels, phone, etc and easy to access these items on the go. I went with the black color way. The only thing I would do differently is get a small instead of a medium. They are a little loose on the waist. Not bad, just not as snug as I would like. I'm 5'7 about 170 lbs. Would definitely recommend these and will be buying more!"

Stashems Marathon Kit
"Great room/storage for everything I need for my next marathon. Fuel, hydration, phone all fit comfortably and securely"
— John J. (4/5)
Almost useable
"I was psyched to see the new liner fabric, which is much better for hot/humid than the Shredders (which are nylon—terrible when wet!). These also have one more stretchy pocket than the Shredders (running over the phone pocket in back). So the waistband and liner are great. But the main body fabric is a 90% downgrade from the Shredders. After miles in hot/humid conditions, this new “more durable” fabric remains soaked, heavy, and rough—a cheese grater across the thighs with every step. Imagine doing a cannonball and then running an ultra in a crinkly swimsuit you got at Walmart, in conditions that prevent evaporation. If Rabbit had kept the super lightweight main fabric from the Shredders, these would be my go-to shorts. Instead, I only feel comfortable using them for runs so short I hardly need the excellent pockets."
