I went into my local running store asking about a different two-in-one short from from what I normally wear that's going to dry faster. There's nothing we hate more than to finish a run and look like we had an accident along the way!
Major bonus points for having pockets zipper pocket in the back regular pockets in the front. It has a faux fly, And I call it that because looking at at it makes it seem like it has the fly in the front but it's just there for style.
I wasn't sure I would like these shorts when the sales associate recommended it. I tested them on a 5K speed workout, and an 8 mi long slow run. The liner feels like soft cotton underwear, put performs like your standard synthetic lycra style workout pants. I'm totally perplexed by it but I do like it.
For my fellow data nerd friends, the slow run test I ran for an hour and 20 minutes, at roughly a 10 minute pace trail and road mixed. 70°, 70% humidity. No chafing balm, and more importantly no chafing or any redness. Great job on the inseam stitching New Balance!
My biggest complaint is always pockets. I like to have pockets in my shorts. The AC short has three pockets two traditional, on the sides and one pictured here in the back.
