Good shorts, but not for running.

The fabric texture is great, and I like the external waist tie. However, the inside of the waistband gets a bit bunched when tied and gets uncomfortable after a long run. My main complaint is the rear phone pocket, which is a feature I search out on running shorts. The pocket is too small (I have an iPhone 13 mini and can barely jam it in there) and placed way too low, which coupled with the relaxed cut of the shorts, means that the phone spanks me the entire run. So not a bad short, but not good for running.

Shorts received NOT the ones pictured, but comfy!

I was surprised to open my order only to discover that the shorts I received were visually different than the shorts pictured in this listing: There is no block logo on the left side [SMRTWL] and the exterior waistband material is the same as the exterior shorts (vs the liner). That too doesn't feature the 'SMRTWL' labeling. Small things perhaps, but still an unexpected experience. I enjoyed my previous pair of Smartwool active lined shorts for in-home exercise (I wore them out) so I anticipate these being similarly comfortable and effective. I wear a 30/31 in denim and the size S feels great.

The liner caused injury to my manhood

It caused chafing of my p-hole if you know what I mean. The liner isn’t soft enough for long runs. I’m in pain.

Running Shorts

I bought one pair, then two more. I like the securable zipper pocket in the center of the back. The weight is comfortable. They wick well and dry quickly. I am a heavy sweater and have had no chafing. My favorite characteristic is that unlike most synthetics, they do not retain foul odors.

Best Liner Shorts

I really like the new design of the 7" lined shorts. They are more comfortable than previous generation. Very nice fit with the perfect length and no odor--of course.

Room for improvement

The shorts are comfortable enough. But the pocket on the waist band is big enough for a goo. No other secure pocket. So the phone you’re going to run with will fall out.

Great hiking shorts

I do a lot of long distance hiking and these are my go to shorts. They are lightweight and the merino lining is great. It dries quickly and doesn’t stink
