Why We Like The Brooks Sherpa 5in Short
From sprint repeats to long summer miles, the Brooks Sherpa 5in Short keeps us cool and moving free. Breezy, quick-drying fibers make sure sweat doesn't weigh us down, and a built-in brief liner enhances the blend's wicking performance. The fine-tuned fit features a flat, low-profile waistband for a comfortably secure fit that sits discreetly under our hydration belt, while the streamlined pocketing carries our phone and gels on shorter missions. Equipped with side hem notches, this short lets us open up our stride restriction free.

Great workout shorts
Love these shorts. The 5" inch is great, they are tight enough to my legs and hug my waist well so that they don't moving during any movements. I use them for running, weightlifting, and playing volleyball. The pockets are quite small, my phone sticks halfway out when I have it in there. It's enough to hold it while walking but would fall out while running. Ultimately, these are great workout shorts that are now my go-to shorts.

No zip phone pocket on thigh as shown in photos. Zip pocket on rear waistband does not fit any standard phone in 2024. A great fitting short lacking basic functionality for modern runners. Disappointed and returned.

Good but bouncy when fully loaded.
Generally a solid pair of shorts, but I felt that the pockets bounced too much when loaded with enough gels for a marathon. For shorts with this many pockets I had hoped they would be a little better at carrying the load nicely.

Good construction, but some fit issues
I recently purchased the Sherpa 5 shorts and have mixed feelings. On the positive side, they're well-constructed with high-quality materials. The zippered pocket is a standout feature - it's generously sized and perfect for securely carrying essentials during a run. However, I've encountered an issue during use: the shorts tend to ride up along the inner thighs while running. This can be uncomfortable and requires frequent adjustment, which interrupts the flow of my workout. While the overall quality is there, this fit issue makes it difficult for me to fully recommend these shorts for running activities. They might work better for other types of exercise where this wouldn't be as much of an issue.

Comfortable shorts
Very comfortable shorts that hold some of the necessary items as you set out on a run or hike. Very happy with the product and will purchase more.

Great running shorts!
Great shorts and very conformable. Light weight and really don't notice them. Breif liner stays in place well. Waist band is soft and stretchy with plenty of storage. Also very breathable. I went for size small whereas normally I get medium in other brands and they fit fine but are slightly more streamlined. If you want a more relaxed fit I'd stick with your normal side in other brand running shorts.

Great short, great storage
Great fit in waist that keeps phone tight against lower back when running. Lots of pockets for gels on long runs. My reason for 4/5 stars is that the liner has a somewhat thonglike fit that doesn't fully give me a wedgie but is kind of close- I've never had this problem from a Brooks pair of shorts before, or any other brand for that matter.
