Men's TrailTech Short

Can't imagine running in anything else

I ordered a medium and the first time I tried them on, I was scared that I should've sized up. But now that I've run in them weekly, including a few 2.5-3h runs, the fit is perfect. The waist sort of breaks in, and the sturdiness of everything keeps everything close to the body without bouncing. I also ordered a large after my first pair, just to compare, and I do find them a little too loose compared to the mediums. Great shorts though, 10/10 would recommend. The only thing I'd change is having a little lace garage for the drawstring.

Amazing bit Longevity Issues

I got the Trailtech Shorts when they first came out and they have been absolutely fantastic. Probably the best shorts I’ve run in. I’ve logged hundreds of miles in them already and they have been excellent holding everything I need with zero bounce. Unfortunately, they won’t make it to a year as I’m having some serious issues with materials breaking down. Practically all the seam tape inside has fallen off. The lower stitching on the liners have completely fallen apart. All the “grippy texture” in the liners is all but gone making the liner ride up. The small zipper has become extremely sticky and hard to operate. I love these shorts so much that I’m definitely buying another pair as they work beautifully with the Raide 2L Belt. I hope Raide can fix some of these durability issues with being such a pricey short as they barely lasted me 8 months. Regardless, they have been amazing.

Hoping for a little more before adding a belt

I love the look, fit, and feel of the shorts. I purposely added a second 360ml flask, but now I can’t fit my phone. I’d like it if any other pockets can hold a phone or add a thigh pocket. Also, the threading on an upper seam in the front came apart after two uses. Support said it’s okay, but my 4-year-old shorts aren’t coming apart yet.
