Description

Three-inch running shorts with a curved split hem and a zipped side pocket — two details that matter more than they sound. The split hem opens as you stride, which stops the fabric bunching and rubbing at the inner thigh. The zip means your phone stays in the pocket rather than working its way out.

Details

  • Wide elastic high waistband with an internal drawstring
  • Zipped side pocket for a phone, keys or cards
  • 3-inch inseam with a curved split hem
  • Ultra-light quick-drying fabric with four-way stretch
  • Sizes S to 2XL
  • Three colours: black, neon green and orange

Why the split hem

A straight-hemmed short pulls tight across the thigh at the top of a stride. The curved split opens instead, which prevents chafing on longer runs and gives a fuller range of motion.

Fit and sizing

The waistband stays put without rolling down. Sizing runs closer to Asian measurements, about one size smaller than standard US — take the larger size if you are between two.

Care

Machine wash cold and hang to dry. Close the zip before washing so it does not catch.

Questions

Will my phone fit in the pocket?
Yes. There is a hidden zipped pocket on the side sized for a phone, keys or cards, and the zip keeps things in during outdoor sessions.

What does the split hem do?
A straight hem pulls tight across the thigh at the top of a stride. The curved split opens instead, which prevents chafing on longer runs and gives a fuller range of motion.

Does the waistband roll down?
No. It is a wide elastic high waistband with an internal drawstring you can tighten yourself, so it stays put through running and high-intensity work.

How long is the inseam?
Three inches, with the curved split hem. Available in black, neon green and orange, sizes S to 2XL.

Size Guide

Start here: our sizing runs small

Most of our activewear is manufactured to Asian sizing, which runs roughly one size smaller than standard US sizing. If you normally wear a US medium, our large will usually be the better fit.

If you are between two sizes, take the larger one.

The reliable way to get this right

Do not convert sizes. Measure a garment you already own and like the fit of, lay it flat, and compare those numbers to the measurements on the product page.

Every product description lists the measurements we have for that specific item. Where we have a full chart, it is printed on the product page itself — because a shorts chart and a leggings chart are not interchangeable.

How to measure yourself

  • Bust — around the fullest part of your chest, tape level and snug but not tight.
  • Waist — around the narrowest part of your torso, usually just above the navel. This is where a legging or short waistband sits, not where jeans sit.
  • Hip — around the fullest part of your hips and seat, feet together.
  • Inseam — from the crotch seam straight down to the ankle.

Measure over close-fitting clothing or bare skin, not over a jumper.

Example charts

These are the full charts we hold for specific products. Use them as a guide to how our sizing behaves, but always check the product page for the item you are buying.

Allow for measuring variance
