Customer reviews
What customers say: Super lightweight and breathable RecPoly fabric makes the Zephyr 5" Short ideal for high-sweat recreation, with appreciated zippered pockets; some find the fit snug or miss a built-in liner.
★★★☆☆
Not quite what I expected
The fabric is definitely lightweight and feels good, but they run a bit snug for a standard fit in my usual size L. The zippers on the pockets feel a little stiff sometimes. I was hoping for a slightly looser feel.
★★★★★
Excellent breathability
The Zephyr shorts are incredibly breathable and have a great standard fit. They dry super fast after a hard run. The Reservoir color is versatile enough for daily wear or the gym.
★★☆☆☆
Fabric felt different than expected
The RecPoly fabric, while light, had a slightly different texture than I anticipated; it feels a bit thin. The drawstring is functional, but the overall construction seems just okay for the price point. These are fine for casual wear, but I'm not sure they'd stand up to really rigorous activity for long compared to others I've owned.
★★★★★
Great everyday athletic short
These are now my preferred shorts for high-sweat activities and even just casual wear. The fabric is extremely lightweight and breathable, making them perfect for warmer weather or intense workouts. The standard fit is comfortable and allows for a full range of motion. I appreciate the quality of the zippered pockets.
