Reviews

Small and Chafed

"Size was smaller than size guide advised, and also I chafed so much on a 5 mile run with these. They also can barely fit one gel in each of the back pockets, not sure how that works for distance runners. I really wanted these to work for marathons to get rid of a running belt, but maybe I’ll have to look elsewhere"

— Daniel L. (1/5)

The best out there

"I’ve worn wolaco half tight in various races, 5k’s half marathons etc. I’m on my 3rd pair and my 1st still looks brand new haha. I’ve yet to find a better kit to manage phone, gels etc. Almost all of my daily runs are in my Wolaco’s, highly recommend!"

— Frank A. (5/5)

I wish the side pockets

"I wish the side pockets were stretchier. I can't easily fit my phone in and out with a case, and on the first rail run I used these on, I lost my hydration flask out of the back pocket. I'm not going to return them, I've already used them, but I find myself already shopping for new half tights after two runs, not the place I want to be after spending $100. Well made, other than that, but unfortunately those are big deals to me. :("

Super comfortable and convenient

"I didn’t want to take them off after running my usual hilly 5k. So I started doing chores around the house because they were really comfortable. I just bought a second pair in another color."

— Enrique S. (5/5)

Most comfortable tights I own

"These tights are the perfect combination of fit, feel, and performance. So ridiculously comfortable but still have plenty of storage and are clearly designed with performance in mind. The 8 inch inseam is perfect in my opinion. Will definitely be getting more!"

— Tate H. (5/5)

Definitely Worth the Price!

"I'm incredibly cheap and insanely picky about my running gear, so the fact that I shelled out the money for these shorts should say something. A major deal-breaker for me with running shorts is the phone pocket. I rather have it on my side, and it cannot bounce. High on the hip is EXACTLY where the phone pocket needs to be. My phone doesn't bounce at all, and I don't have to worry about getting blisters or any kind of chaffing from a bouncing phone on my thigh. Realistically, I haven't had to worry about chaffing of at all even with a few 20+ milers wearing these shorts. I will be buying another pair soon, because I will not waste my money on shorts that can't do the job."

— Eric R. (5/5)

Worst chafing ever

"As mentioned in my other review for the sprint short, these shorts gave me the worst chafing ever experienced. While it only occurs after 10+ miles, I am disappointed that such an expensive product advertised as no chafing would produce such extreme chafing. Their support recommended wearing clothing underneath, but that defeats why i bought them and I honestly don’t know how anything underneath them would work. Unfortunately their refund policy doesn’t allow returns, even though I have had them less than a month. The quality is obviously there, but the seams on the inner thigh rubs horribly after long runs. I wish for the price the result was better. As it is now, I can only wear them for my shorter runs, not ideal."

— David M. (2/5)

Best half tights in the world

"I've never experienced anything like these half tights. I get sad when I wear them because I know that I won't be able to wear them the next day. That just means I'm gonna have to buy more of these. Best quality half tights available"

— Hallie P. (5/5)

Not bad

"Phone pocket could be slightly wider for a galaxy 25 with a slim case, it's not simple to put the phone away and it takes two hands. Waist is kinda high. Gel pockets are minimalistic, haven't thoroughly tested the retention."

— Solis T. (3/5)

"Barely used them for the first time for a long distance race and shorts already got ruined. Fabric started to wear off. It’s a shame these shorts are $128+ and can’t stand one run. Never again! Should have trusted actual customers than those influencers online."

Q&A

Can the sidepocket fit an iPhone 14 Pro Max?
Hi Nick, These fit all iphones however, if you have a thicker case you may need to remove it.
Any chance of getting a thin water bottle or collapsable flask in the outer leg pocket, or would that be too tight and not work well?
Hey! Sounds like you'd be a Large!
Im 5’9, 175lb, looking to buy my first half tights for my upcoming race. Some brands I wear large, some I wear medium in running gear. What size would you recommend I purchase? Thanks in advance!
Hey! If your waist is 32" or less I would definitely go with Medium. Generally it sounds like you are in Medium territory. Thanks!
Are the short supposed to be really tight/compressive? I bought a medium based on rec on site and they don’t really feel like a traditional compressive short.
Hey! Are they too loose for you? They are meant to be compressive but comfortable and not constricting. It could be worth trying to size down if that is what you are looking for.
I have the sprint half tight and love them. What’s the difference between them and the distance half tight? Is it more pockets or is anything else different too?
Hey! Distance has additional storage on the back of the shorts. Great for nutrition, sunglasses on longer runs. That is the primary difference between the two.
Will you be coming out with any shorter sizes? I’m a short person so a 6” inseam would be great!
Next week!
