This is my second pair of Infiniti shorts. I run lots of trails and these shorts allow me no step from side to side or up a steep climb without restriction. Two side pockets are great for keys or a gel.

I purchased two pair of these a few years ago, and absolutely loved them. The fit was great, loved the liner, and they didn't sit too low. These are horrible. They sit too low, the liner is too tight, and the legs are not as loose as the originals. I have big legs, but my old ones fit great still. I hate these and wish I could return them, but I have already worn them.

      Simply the best running short I've ever worn in my 35 years as a runner. Only suggestion for improvement is to put a key pocket inside one of the two side "gel" pockets.

        Comments about Infiniti Notch Short II:

        I was looking for a short to do longer runs in with storage options, short but not super short length and compression type liner. Shorts fit really well, nylon shell is definitely quick drying and light, but a bit of a bathing suit feel to it (check out the Sherpa 2-in-1 if your looking for softer feel). Compression short liner is a great idea and a nice alternative to the traditional "brief" style liner. Liner stays fairly comfortable while running, but does tend to ride up and feel a bit bunchy. Because the liner is sewn into the short, when the liner bunches the short also tends to ride up a bit. Really like the design, but don't think I will be able to get rid of the compression shorts quite yet.

            In a word - disappointing. Always had luck with other Brooks shorts - Essential run, Sherpa, but these were different. The fabric felt cheap and the shorts were ill-fitting.

              I own several Brooks shorts. These are my favorite because they don't bunch up. Boxer brief is great to prevent chafing, too. The leg openings are a little generous, but nothing too bad.

                I use this product for 5K to 15K street and trail running. I like compression, but many compression or 2 in 1 shorts are too long and end up looking like basketball shorts. These are just the right length to give support but still be out of the way when running.

                  Great shorts for long distance runs. Inner liner has reduced chaffing which I suffer from on long runs.. The length is perfect. Not too long or too short.

                    I use the shorts for training runs year round in all temperatures. They are cool and lightweight in hot humid summer heat. In cold winter weather, I wear compression tights underneath. The built in liner and pockets are features I need and these shorts deliver.

                      The spandex lining was to short. This causes the spandex the ride up during the run, restricting your upper thigh from a full range of motion.
