We built the Chitto for every trail on your horizon, with stretchiness and complete freedom of movement for hiking or running. We like to stay fresh from trailhead to trailgating, so we also integrated water-resistant treatment to keep you dry if you get caught in some light showers, and odor control treatment if you're powering through a full weekend in these shorts.

Solid choice for a running short
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Solid, basic running short. Liner is comfortable, and not overly restrictive. Sizing is perfect. The one zipper pocket, centered on the rear waistline, is fine for a small set of keys/credit card but nothing more than that. The only thing I?d like to have seen is a pocket (perhaps integrated into the liner to prevent too much jostling around) capable of holding a smartphone.

Great fit and support. useless pocket
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Perhaps the best groin support of any running shorts I've bought. I really like the length of the inseam, and have since buying them, put them on just to hang around the house when it's really hot. the lack of a significant pocket is something of an issue. I can only hold my house key in it and have to carry my phone for the duration of a run if I want to listen to music. Guess I'll be getting a hip bag next to make make it work. Will likely get another pair if they release new colors because the red and black don't look great imo.

Runs seriously small

Ordered an XXL, which is what the label says, but these fit like an L or slightly bigger. Was hoping for hiking shorts, not running briefs.

Inaccurate product description
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
The fabric is listed as being nylon + spandex. This is true for the shell of the shorts, but there is a polyester liner on the inside which ruins it for me. The description doesn't say anything about polyester anywhere. Nylon is great for the trail because it doesn't smell. Polyester is terrible and smells bad after wearing/sweating for just a short time. Would not recommend on account of the polyester and the fact that it's not listed anywhere. Now unfortunately I have to pay to ship the shorts back even though I would have never ordered them if I knew the liner was polyester.

nice but not enough room
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These are solid shorts and I like the orange color. That said, personally, I miss the bigger pockets that are on my other trail running shorts and the liner is so tight and uncomfortable that I might cut it out. The back pocket is big enough for a few keys and that's it. I think these shorts assume you are taking a vest for your nutrition and gear on runs that require it.

Perfect comfortable do anything short
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This short is extremely comfortable and flexible. i weigh 165 and am 5'7" and the medium size is perfect. fabric dries quickly and seems like it will take anything I can throw at it.

great lightweight trail/running short!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These are awesome, lightweight, breathable shorts great for hiking or running! They are pretty short at 5in, but that keeps them out of the way! (plus you get a sweet tan line) They have a comfortable inner liner, and a small pocket perfect for keys or a snack. I plan on adding these to my rotation for summer active shorts! I would recommend these to anyone looking for a great basic short for warm weather, outdoors activities!
