Why We Like The Roark Alta 5in Short
Roark designed the Alta 5in Short to meet all the demands of a long day on the trail. The lightweight nylon-stretch blend works with the wicking brief liner to keep us comfortable and supported as we chalk up mile after mile while the run-friendly pockets protect our phone in a waterproof pouch and carry our energy gels and snacks for some on-the-go nutrition.

I love these shorts. The short itself is made of a durable, comfortable material that doesn't bunch up and can take a beating against rocks and trees. Three pockets are in the back of shorts: one zipper and two stash pockets. The zipper pocket is the only one out of all the running shorts I've tried that is big enough for my phone with a case on and, once you tie the shorts tight, does not aggressively bounce the phone around. Stash pockets are okay; I pretty only use them for trash, as some items feel like they could bounce out, as the pockets have no closure mechanism. Maybe a button or elastic lip would fix this? Otherwise, the liner is fine and they fit me great. I'm about a 32" waist with long legs and got a medium. I'd highly recommend for any type of running.
