The Slipstream 7” Shorts are a warm-weather training and racing staple. Made using a super lightweight Aeroflyte QD fabric and featuring a zipped pocket, they’re perfect for your fastest trail runs and intervals when the temperature’s heating up. A tailored run- specific fit ensures the shorts move with you.

Our Verdict

I really like this style of shorts, and though they may not be for everyone, I love the fit, especially the high waistband. I find them incredibly comfortable. The waistband hugs the body well, and the shorts facilitates good airflow on warm days. They have a secure zipped pocket to store keys or energy gels. They are simple and low profile, and I’m a big fan of that.
