Light, comfortable and built for long runs on mixed terrain
Inov8 says:
Run long without fearing the chafe in the AIRLITE 2IN1 SHORT.
These 7 inch running shorts feature an inner liner which protects against painful rubbing and chafing. The shorts are moisture wicking, highly breathable and quick drying to maximise your comfort during long sessions.
Featuring a close, slim fitting cut, the AIRLITE 2IN1 SHORT hugs the body, but still allows full freedom of movement as you move up and down hills or over obstacles. A rear zipped pocket allows you to store your valuables and reflective logos on the front and back of the short aid your visibility to others in low light.
Our Verdict
The Inov8 Airlite 2-in-1 Shorts balance comfort and practicality for trail and road running. At 206g (Medium), they combine a smooth, supportive liner with a lightweight, quick-drying outer fabric that moves freely over the thighs.. The wide stretch waistband feels secure and supportive without digging in, keeping the fit stable, while the liner does an excellent job of preventing chafing during longer sessions.
Breathability is strong for a dual-layer design, though ventilation naturally trails behind minimalist split shorts in hot, humid weather. The small rear zip pocket holds a key or gel securely, but space is limited for anything more. For runners looking for dependable comfort and modest storage rather than maximum airflow, the Airlite 2in1 offers a refined, well-balanced design that performs reliably over distance.
