Versatile running shorts
So many things to love about these running shorts. They are very soft and feel luxurious to the touch. Every detail has been well thought out. The string cords have a little loop so that you will never have to try to fish them from one side to the other. The pocket on the back is of a practical size and has a well made zipper on the outside. It can easily fit keys and two gels for the road. One of my favorite features was the breathability of the waistband, which prevented the dreaded sweat drenched and uncomfortable waistband issue. The waistband was also snug enough to stay on through all activity but did not feel like it was digging into my waist like some other running shorts I've had. I also appreciate that the shorts do not have a long slit on the sides, so no matter what I was doing, I never felt exposed. The shorts are true to size. I currently wear a size 8 and these fit great. There were a few times where i noticed them riding up and I had to adjust and pull them down. This seemed to happen more when I wore them on a beach walk on a hot day. So it could've been due to being sticky hot. However, they do dry very quickly! I've worn them in the rain and they were still very comfy. I look forward to wearing these all summer long, both on runs and just around the yard. Because they dry so quickly, I think they'll also be great shorts for water adventures like stand up paddle boarding and canoeing with my family.
Arcteryx Woman’s Norvan short 4
I absolutely love these shorts!! They fit well to size, perfect length for a runner, biker and hiker. They are very soft and weightless. I am very pleased with them. I live in Santa Barbara and I am very active outdoors, so I need durable and comfortable clothing.
Buttery Soft and Lightweight Shorts
When I pulled the shorts out of the box, I was first impressed by the color. Very vibrant blue. I love the color. Second thing that I noticed was how soft the shorts felt. I honestly couldn't wait to put them on. When I put them on, they felt great. The band at the waist made the shorts feel secure. I knew I could wear them without them falling off. At first try, I did think they were a bit short. I took them for a run and they did ride up a bit. I kept having to readjust the inside of the shorts to keep them down. Full transparency, I do have thick thighs so I'm not sure if this had something to do with it. Second, time I wore the shorts, I was just walking around at a park. They felt super comfortable and great in the heat. Recently, I wore them over a swimsuit while stand up paddle boarding. I probably felt the most comfortable wearing them at the beach/around water because of the length. They felt great and I was approached twice on the water to be asked where my shorts were from and that they loved the color... who doesn't love compliments. Overall, great shorts for outdoor active lifestyle.
excited for summer runs!
I've been a longtime lululemon fan, so moving away from them feels a bit like cheating. Once I got these Arc'teryx 3" shorts on, I was blown away. I love the lightness of the material - as someone with sensitive skin, I'm always worried about irritation with fabrics. The liner feels breathable and comfortable, and even more importantly - the waistband feels comfortable and perfectly snug. I'm not worried about the shorts sliding down. I loved the way the fabric is cut around my upper legs - it feels so freeing. I'm genuinely considering a pair of black shorts to be ones I use for upcoming travels.
Terrific shorts - love the color!
These are fantastic, high-quality running & exercise shorts. Fit true to size. I especially love the breathability of the waistband and the rear pocket - nice size for keys and small essentials. The liner brief is also very functional. Not see-through at all and still has some nice breathability for a hot day. My favorite part of all is the color. These are a beautiful blue that would stand out for safety on a run, but are also a pretty enough color that you don’t feel ridiculous running a few errands in them. When I have a high-quality pair of running shorts, I’m always reminded of how much they are worth it… I think these will last a long time and I’m really happy to have them.
Comfy Running Shorts
I am loving these shorts! I am currently training for a half marathon and these hit the mark for that. They are comfy, light and breezy when I am running in them. I have the blue color and love the look of them.
Excellente qualité/taillant
j'adore la qualité de fabrication et la légèreté du tissu. J'apprécie particuliièrement la ceinture par cordon et non élastique, car je ne supporte pas d'etre serrée à la taille. Il y a plus léger pour les fortes températures (style Nike ou Adidas Adizero)
Lightweight comfortable shorts
I like the feel of the material, the length and they’re lightweight. I’m wearing them for hiking, running, backpacking and packrafting.
