A bit snug on athletic legs

But nice and stretchy!

I wear these sailing. They are comfortable, dry pretty quickly, and are sturdy. Will buy more pairs.

Sturdy fabric, great fit

Comfort Powerhouse
Durable High-Performance Fabric

We substituted the thin, flimsy fabrics you find in standard issue shorts with an upgraded, durable, mid-weight fabric that's built to endure and protect you from the elements.


Made with technical qualities for any activity and any weather condition. Sweat-wicking, quick-drying, 360° stretch, wrinkle-resistant, ultra durable, cling-free (even during the sweatiest workouts) and everything-able.

Double-Faced Weave

This performance fabric is tough on the outside but soft on the inside (just like a coconut). The smooth, durable exterior ensures long-term durability while the soft, textured interior feels great against the skin.


The 3D texture on the interior raises the fabric off your skin for more airflow and breathability and to prevent clinging

Free Motion Gusset

No more crotch blowouts - the Free Motion Gusset allows for a complete range of motion, so if you can do the splits, now’s your chance to shine. 

Seams Engineered for Torsion and Strength

We reinforcing our shorts with double-needle, chain-stitched seams engineered for torsion and strength

Reinforced Stress Points

Reinforced stitching at major stress points for an extra layer of durability.

Curved Waistband

Contours naturally to your body to sit more comfortably on your waist

Elastic Waistband

Stretches for the perfect customizable fit.

Internal Drawstring

Custom metal-tipped internal drawstrings that are thread in a more natural pull direction.

Tailored Slim Fit

Cut for a tailored slim fit to look sharp below the belt

Versatile 8-Inch Inseam

Hits nicely above the knee to make it versatile enough for the city and weekends.

Zippered Media Pocket

Keeps your phone locked down, high on your hip and out of the way while you move. Pocket points backwards to reduce bulk in the front and not get in the way of accessing the side pocket. Fits iPhone 13 Pro-sized phones.

Plenty of Pockets

Pockets are often overlooked when designing athletic shorts, but we created plenty of pockets with performance features so you can take all your essentials to any workout and be confident they’ll remain secure, accessible, and bounce-free.

Secret Stash Pocket

Keeps credit cards, cash and keys hidden but easily accessible when traveling. Ideal for when you need to grab a post-workout coffee or shake.

Deep Side Pockets

Side-slash pockets offer easy access. Built with deep pockets for more storage.

Squared-Out Pockets

Side-slash pockets have a flat, squared-out bottom to keep your items upright for a well-kept look.

Durable Pockets

Our pockets are built to last with reinforced stitching in the corners and edges to prevent blowouts.

Stretch Mesh Pockets

All pockets are made with our durable flex mesh that stretches to absorb bounce and increases airflow to release heat.
