Chaser 5in 2-in-1 Short - Women's

Not worth the hefty price

I am disappointed in these shorts. I ordered a small, my usual size, but they seem a little big. I was hoping they’d carry my phone on long runs for music but the liner shorts are not substantial enough to hold a phone while running. They flop and are loose. These are not a great fitting short due to poor considerations when making them. They are awkward to say the least. I would not have purchased them had I known. And the color is odd too.

Great Concept but Poor Fit

Love the idea of these shorts and wanted to love wearing them. Unfortunately, I found the outer shorts to be pretty tight (definitely smaller than the same size in the regular chaser shorts), and the inner shorts were looser than I liked. Putting my phone in the pocket of the inner shorts just made them even looser and significantly pulled that side down. I would like to see these with a more snug inner short and looser outer layer.

perfect shorts!

These are amazing! Unlike others have said, I feel these are true to size or possible run large (I am a medium in UA and Nike, but small in these). They don’t ride up, and I have thick thighs compared to the rest of my body. Outer shorts are nicely loose while inner is fitted. And my phone (iphone 15 pro with popsocket & case) fits perfectly in the inner shorts pockets unlike others said. I do wish it fit in the back zipper pocket like Nathan 2-in-1 shorts do but that’s fine for how comfy these are!

New favorite running shorts!

The best running shorts!! The liner doesn't ride up so for all my girls with thighs you get to avoid the dreaded ride up and also not have to just wear biking shorts! The liner is tight enough to not move around but isn't too compression-y so still quite comfortable.

Not curvy girl approved.

This are not curvy girl approved (typically a size 8). The spandex bunched up and doesn’t stay in place and the shorts are pretty unflattering. I was very disappointed. Especially with the expensive price tag.

Outer shorts too tight in thighs

I really wish these shorts had worked for me because 2-in-1 shorts are all I'll run in. I love the color choices, the pockets, and the length, though I wouldn't mind the inner shorts being an inch longer. The foldable waistband so we can choose how high it sits on the waist is great. But the outer shorts are cut so slim through the thigh that they're not really any looser than the inner shorts. They end up giving you the same silhouette as if you were running in just tights with no shorts on top, which, for me, defeats the whole purpose of 2-in-1 shorts. I would consider sizing up just to get looser outer shorts, but the inner shorts and the hips and waist of the outer shorts fit perfectly and would be too loose if I went up a size. I returned them with regrets.

2xl is perfect!

I have a few different Brooks 2 in 1 shorts, also this one because they are perfect. I wear a 2xl and they fit amaing, no pinching at the top. I just love them. I wear them the entire summer, around the house, cycling, taking walks, gardening. They dont 'crawl' up and stay in place perfectly. Would recommend to anyone who, like me struggles with finding summerclothing that is comfortable and beatifull in 2 XL.

Bright for running

If you get the neon/yellow, it is quite bright - exactly what I was looking for - except the bike/compression part of the shorts wasn't very compressed. And I would've liked it to be a bit (half inch to an inch) longer.

Love the way they fit, the pockets, very comfortable - love having different color options

Great run shorts!

So light ans breezy! Might be a new favorite. They stay put, no wedgies or camel toes. Count that as a big win!! Love the reflective yellow color.
