Disappointing!!! I wore them for my 17 mile long run, in 48° temp, and i could barely walk after due to the chafing. Not sure what FlipBelt’s thought process was in designing these, but this material doesn’t breath at all. They actually feel like scuba shorts in a way. One positive is the storage is awesome though, especially if you use larger gels. It’s the only reason I’m not giving them 1 star.

excellent tight-shorts

I'm very pleased with these tight-shorts. They fit perfectly, are very thin and you don't notice them being there when you're running. The cargo carrying capacity isn't massive but is better than similar shorts by Nike or Brooks I've tried. You can carry your car keys and phone at least without issues. As far as the fit, I don't get why some people say they're too small: the brand clearly says a Medium, which is what I bought, is for waists 29-30. These are shorts for competitive distance runners. Expect a tight fit.

Great fabric fit perfect size xl 5’7 225 pound ready to order again in the future love the multiple pockets for the phone gels and the small one with zipper for the keys

Don’t shop around. These are the best

Flipbelt is so far superior to the other over advertised over priced brands. They are designed really well. Most other shorts have pockets that are too small. Flipbelt has all the space you need. These are my go to training tights and the Elites are my racers. They make long runs so much easier.
