Nike Dri-FIT Flex Stride

These shorts are great. I got size XL and they fit well and I like the reflective lining. I also love the dri-fit technology. The fabric seems durable, like they will last a long time. These shorts are perfect for running. They are airy enough to keep cool and the reflection helps keep you visible in low light. The design is great too, the colors work really well together. Nike has done it again. Would definitely recommend.

I got these shorts for my husband and the first thing he mentioned was the pockets! The back pocket was so convenient, as were having the zippered ones on the side. He didn’t need to bring his normal waist belt on his trail runs. The elastic loops were great for holding the small collapsible water bottles and his gloves. The fabric is super light and airy. It wicked moisture away well, and held up great in the wash after a muddy trail run. His only complaint was the mesh inside liner. He normally prefers compression shorts, so this was something to get used to. Overall definitely a great pair of running shorts.

I run and bike every day. When I received these shorts my initial thought was that they are made from a soft material, and I loved the zipper pockets but I feared they might be a little short for my liking. I quickly tried them on and they fit pretty well. Surprisingly, they were the perfect length, not too short but not too long. The next day I wore them for my run and bike ride. I like these shorts. Here is what I thought of them. I loved the fact that these shorts have 2 deep zippered pockets on the front and a small zippered pocket on the back where the waste is. There is even a tiny little pocket on the inside on the back. They have these little loops on the front which I’m not sure what they are for but I hooked a little bottle of sanitizer on them. They would work for keys also. My pair is gray with like a burnt orange-red color. It’s nice but not a color I would usually buy. I do hope they have them in a single color or mixed colors like black, navy blue, gray. The material is very light and airy. The fabric feels cool to the touch. I could feel the breeze in my shorts which I liked. The material is stretchy and I feel like it moves with you. They are lined on the inside, total plus for active wear. They hold up well. I washed them twice so far and don’t see any change in them. However, the tag says to wash them inside out, take out immediately after wash and not to use fabric softeners which we usually use. I hope I don’t forget and ruin them one day. Almost forgot, they have a small light reflector strip on each side which is not something most active wear has. This helps when your running at night. Overall I am pleased with these shorts. I got the XL size and they fit perfectly. I need to see if these comes in other colors because I would like to pick up another pair or two of these shorts.
