Best for ME.
I had my share of brands of shorts out there. From Nike, Salomon, and even Janji. Nothing by far beats the build quality and design of these RC's. They have all the features needed and its more from a Practical Point of View . Materials are high quality especially the liner none of this " French Riviera Cut Swim Trunks" sewn into Running Shorts. There's enough pockets for whatever you need in the RC. No it wont accommodate so you can carry your stupid phone or your Car Key / House Keys. Kinda foolish to be carrying that while you're working on sprints or fartleks . No. keep it simple. Back Pocket's enough for your ID/ATM Card / or Gels if even that. The Shell i love the most.. it breathes and it's light enough as well.. By far the best shorts I bought.

5" NB Shorts
Great fit and the new design works even better for longer runs. Rear pocket and zip can fit a large Phone if you need to run with it.

Decent for just running
I wish there were pockets and the back pocket was just a sleeve on the inside. The zipper is so annoying on seats and too small for phone and keys

Great fit!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoy having shorts with the lining included. They fit well and stay in place better than your average pair of exercise shorts. They are comfortable to use for all types of activities and really allow for a more comfortable wear.

Good runner’s shorts.
Build quality is good. Inner lining brief was a tad constricting for me.

Great Material!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a comfortable pair of shorts! New Balance- RC shorts 5” shorts fit true to size and provide the right amount of coverage. I love the material because it doesn’t ride up when jogging. Highly recommend!
