Nike Trail

Due to the previous reviews over the importance of zipper pocket features, I found last year’s version of second sunrise 5” liner short at the local Nike Factory store and purchased a size M. I am 5’8” tall and weigh 148 pounds and the M size is perfect. I am a father whose two daughters and wife are starting to get into hiking and trail running. In such situations, the father usually ends up carrying myriad items and foods for the others (and the car keys etc) so, yes, last year’s version at the Factory store was a GREAT find! Personally, I prefer compression inner shorts and a 6” or 7” drop even for running shorts! Still, last year’s version fit great, are phenomenally adaptive, secure and practical. They are sturdy and well built and I don’t have to worry about the valuables flying out of my pockets! And, so, I can focus on my family, the trail, the fresh air and the natural beauty ! Nike engineers always get it right, so let’s see what next year brings!

Flimsy, weird pocket system, overall a big disappointment compared to the last one.

Honestly please bring back the prior version, it had zippers on the main pocket for security and the side pockets and front pockets for gels were amazing. I don’t know why Nike would downgrade like this. It’s legit called a trail short so all the space available is what made these shorts great so why take it away?
