    I've been looking for something that offers a little more coverage than the average running short without looking dowdy, restricting movement, or drifting northward as I run. These fit the bill perfectly...or almost perfectly. They're lightweight, they're very comfortable, and they come in fun colors. Their only drawback is that they run very large. At 5'1" and 120 bottom-heavy pounds, I'm not exactly blessed with a "runner's build," and I normally have to go up a size in running-specific clothing. It was optimistic if not delusional of me to order these shorts in a S, but much to my surprise, I'm practically swimming in them.

    I am a loyalist to the Infiniti shorts, but was lured in by the bright colors offered in these shorts. They are cute and the 5" inseam length is great for days when you're feeling a little more modesty than your typical running short will allow for. The fit and look is a bit more like an old school soccer short, longer and baggier than most running shorts. The size also seemed to run big.

    Overall, these shorts seemed less durable and well made than the Infiniti or Epiphany shorts I've worn in the past, probably reflecting the difference in price. The fabric of the shorts and liner is thinner. Sweat is more visible on these shorts than on other Brooks shorts I wear. They are really comfortable and I like the alternative to a "short short" some days, but I wouldn't wear these for long runs where I know I'd be sweating a lot in them. However, they're cute and I'll keep wearing them for shorter runs and cooler days.

      Great length for running. They don't ride up. I am in my 50's, avid runner and have been looking for shorts that don't bare all and these are great.

        I will be running with these. I prefer these type of shorts over the tight ones because the breathability of the short is more comfortable.
        its all about comfort for me while running 10miles plus

            I run in these and love them... they are light and thin, so they don't ride up. Like the length too... I am not a teeny tiny runner and enjoy that they have a little coverage.

                I just use the short for casual wear while working in a running store. The fit is perfect! I'm tall (6'0"), so the length is great and the fit is very comfortable and appropriate for work attire.
