So comfortable!
Very light and comfortable. Doesn't restrict movement and great for those hotter days. Small zipper pocket is perfect for keys. I wouldn't mind another inch or two on length but that is a personal preference. Overall, these shorts have worked well for my runs and well worth the the purchase.

Great shorts!
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Done a couple of 6-hour, Vancouver, BC, summer hikes in these and I love them! They're super light, comfortable and quick drying. I'm really enjoying the elastic waistband. It does have a tiny pocket on one side, but I wish it had bigger pockets on each side. Other than that, it's perfect.

Too tight waist band
I have run 3-5miles 3x in these shorts and have to say the only, yet major drawback, is the tightness of the waistband. I really like the fabric, it is soft and flowy. The fit and inseam length are great, with the shorts staying put while in motion - no creeping up the thighs or backside. The waistband is narrow and uncomfortably tight. I am thinking of cutting a slit in the side of elastic to see if it will be more comfortable. I am 5'1" and 110lbs with athletic thighs. I tried on both the S & XS, and kept the XS as the S were too large / droopy for me.
