These shorts are very comfortable and good for running as long as you don't want to carry much with you. The back pocket is too small for a phone and the side pockets are tiny. If they added a phone pocket to the inner liner along the leg this would be an almost perfect short for running.

Less Sweat, Better Cool
Nike Dri-FIT technology moves sweat away from your skin for quicker evaporation, helping you stay dry and comfortable. We added breathable fabric at the upper back to help keep you cool.
A Stride to Strive For
These Stride shorts are built to move. We made them with a shallower rise to let you run fast without anything getting in the way. A full-length set of liner shorts provides extra coverage and support.
Secure Storage
Side pockets help keep items like a key or card close. A zippered back pocket is large enough to hold a phone. It has an internal moisture barrier to help keep your gear dry.

How This Was Made
- The recycled polyester used in Nike products begins as recycled plastic bottles, which are cleaned, shredded into flakes and converted into pellets. From there, the pellets are spun into new, high-quality yarn used in our products, delivering peak performance with a lower impact on the environment.
- In addition to reducing waste, recycled polyester produces up to 30% lower carbon emissions than virgin polyester. Nike diverts an average of 1 billion plastic bottles annually from landfill and waterways.

Comfy, but poor storage.

Good shorts with a few issues.
Jason0ce791cd0e094a1c907befbbb29957a9 - 07 Aug 2025
Good shorts, very comfortable and breathable. Liner is good, could be a bit more compressive but it's perfectly suitable. The phone pocket on the back is not large enough to hold modern cell phones. Also, the stitching on my pair is inconsistent, with several loose threads near seams. Sizing was perfect. These are good-but not great-shorts.
Useless back pocket

Nice shorts, but unless your phone is pre 2010 it’s not going to fit in the back pocket. May as well not even be there.
