This versatile short is as happy on a trail run as it is on a fast-hike venture. Made of a recycled polyester / elastane blend, it’s lightweight, wicks moisture and moves freely. The hand pockets and stabiliser smartphone pocket make this short super-practical.
Our Verdict
These feel absolutely fantastic on, the stretchy inner tight and large elasticated hem feel lovely next to the skin, and make for a nice well-fitted pair of shorts that definitely isn’t constrictive, in fact, the level of freedom of movement is unparalleled
The perforated outer material of these two layered shorts is incredibly fast drying and highly breathable as well as being treated with a DWR, this outer layer is perfect for highly intense activities.
The stretchy inner layer again provides good breathability and provides super-comfortable, lightweight support, gusseted design and side split. The silicone hem ensures the shorts won’t rise up and prevents chafing. A zipped pocket provides a safe place for keys and is large enough to stash your mobile phone, 2 mesh backed pockets are located around the waistband are perfect for storing energy gels/snacks
