Go-To shorts for workouts and running

This has been my go-to workout and running short for many years. These fit true to size. They wash well and last a long time without any fading, stretching, or wear.

Not flexible

No, I don't recommend this
Shorts don't flex to well compared to other UA shorts. Otherwise they are lightweight. Would not buy again.

Hi! Thanks for putting these to the test and sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear they kept things lightweight, but we hear you on the lack of flex. That’s a big part of moving comfortably, and it sounds like these didn’t deliver the way you expected. That’s not the experience we aim for, and we appreciate you calling it out. We’d love the chance to help you find a pair that moves better with you. Keep an eye on your inbox, we’ll be reaching out to help.

Great shorts for working out in or just lounging around the house. I was a little skeptical about the 5" inseam thinking they might be a little to short, but I like them. They a great way for me to show off my muscular thick thighs without looking ridiculous. I'm 6 feet tall, 185 pounds & a large fits great.

Two of my sons have these shorts. My middle son has had them since last track season and wears them for meets. They are very comfortable and have held up well. My youngest son just received his to match the rest of the relay team.

Finally, running shorts with usable pockets. The fit is great and the pockets allow me to carry gels and lightweight gear with easy access. No more reaching in. Very happy.

It is very hard to find a pair of shorts with a mesh liner, especially in a nine or 10 inch inseam. These really fit the bill. Very well-made and lightweight. I hope they continue to offer these shorts in the future.

Light and airy. The built in briefs can be a little bothersome at times, but overall great running shorts.
