Reviews
Bummer.
"I wanted to love these shorts but I don't. Unfortunately, I washed them before wearing them on a run because I'm stuck with them. (Seriously, who doesn't sweat in their running clothes?) The pockets are amazing but not placed well because you have to contort your body a bit to reach them. I had a wedgie after the first mile that essentially stayed there no matter how many times I picked it out. I love the color and the ability to tie the elastic to adjust tightness. The fabric was a little clingy which isn't my favorite type."

My 2nd favorite rabbit shorts
"I’ve been a longtime Leggy fan, relying on those hip pockets for non-bounce phone storage as well as gels. Recently I decided to try breezier models that have great storage and the FKT fit the bill. My iphone 15 in its silicone case fits in the back pocket (I angle it in). It’s not as easily accessible as in the Leggy’s, but there is zero bounce and the other pockets provide room for other items. I wear an XS or S in rabbit bottoms. I opt for size S in the Leggy’s because I don’t want a lot of compression, but have chosen XS in all other models. At first I thought these were too small because the waistband is less stretchy than some other models, but quickly realized it’s by design - so that it stays up securely."

Not my favorite
"I carried my phone in the back phone pocket and while it didn't move much, it pulled the shorts down and I am repeatedly having to pull the shorts up. So while it does carry things, if you use all the pockets, the shorts fall down and even tying the waist as tight as was still comfortable did not help."

Total comfort
"These are the most comfortable shorts I've ever owned. The fabric is so soft and light. I'm a huge fan!"

Shorts for the heat
"These lightweight shorts have a ton of storage. The best part is the draw string waist because the shorts don’t ride up or slide down. These are my new favorite and I’ll be ordering more for running in the Florida heat!"

Fantastic Running Shorts
"I love the fit, feel, and style of these shorts! The back pocket for a cell phone eliminates the need of having to use a running belt which is very nice! My phone stayed in place and never bounced around. The two side pockets are fantastic for putting in a set of keys or gels. I purchased the rabbit soft flask which fits in nicely. It was easy to take out during my run. I could feel the weight of the flask but it didn't bounce around in the shorts. This is my third pair of rabbit shorts and I absolutely love them!"

Fantastic pockets, size down between sizes
"If you're between sizes, go smaller. Don't be like me — I believed the "runs small" with these, and now need a size smaller. The drawstring waistband isn't enough to keep them comfortably in place for running once I add a phone. The phone pocket is the star. I can have running shorts *and* a cell phone pocket? Woot! I wasn't sure about the lack of side splits, but the FKT are baggy enough to not need them."

FKT 4” shorts
"These are great run shorts for carrying my liquid nutrition on my runs."

Great addition to my shorts collection
"I really like these shorts. They have quickly become a part of my preferred rotation. The shorts are lightweight and comfortable. My other Rabbit shorts are smalls, I ordered up a size for these based on reviews. I honestly could have still ordered a small. I kept the medium size because I wanted something less fitted for when I’m coaching and they are perfect for that. On my personal runs, I carry the 250mL hydrapak, fuel, and my phone. It’s nice to have pockets that can easily do this. Since I ordered up a size, I make sure to tie them tight at the waist when the pockets are loaded because otherwise they’d be too loose."

Great shorts with lots of storage
"Finding comfortable shorts can be a pain, but these have quickly become my favorite. Lots of pockets for multiple storage options. Will definitely add another pair when they are back in stock. For reference, I am 5’7” and 158 lbs. I got the large and they are a perfect fit."
