Colours of this piece
Fit and size
Take your usual waist size. The waist is elastic with a drawstring on every pair, so the number that matters is the inseam: 3 inch shows the whole thigh, 5 sits mid-thigh, 7 and 9 reach the knee. Between sizes, go down on the 2-in-1 pairs, because the liner is what holds.
The piece in plain words
What this men's piece is
A pair of men's running shorts in Tiger Stripe with a 3 inch inseam: the whole thigh shows and nothing touches the knee on a stride. A knit liner is sewn inside the shell, so nothing goes on underneath, and the liner takes the sweat while the shell dries. Zip pockets on the hips hold a phone, a card and a key without swinging.
The waist is a flat elastic band, and the back sits a touch higher than the front so the hem stays put when you bend. The label gives the shell as 87% polyester, 90% nylon and 10% spandex. The maker calls it quick-dry, breathable and lightweight, and those are the maker's words.
Wearing it
On a 5K the liner holds and the phone pocket stays still. On a long run some people still wear their own compression short under it, and the shell has room for that. Wash it cold, hang it, and you have it dry by the next morning.

Words that belong to the maker
The maker calls this piece quick-dry, breathable and lightweight. Those are the maker's words. The sun guide and the trail guide explain what such words mean in use.
What it does not do
The liner is not a compression short. A zip pocket is not a waterproof pocket, and a quick-dry shell does not keep the rain out.

Questions about this piece
Does the phone fit?
The zip pocket is cut for a phone up to about 6.7 inches. A phone in a case goes in, a phone in a wallet case is tight.
Liner or no liner?
This pair has one, and it is the reason for the 2-in-1 name. Go down a size if you are between two: the liner is what holds.
Which size?
Take your usual waist size. The waist is elastic with a drawstring on every pair, so the number that matters is the inseam: 3 inch shows the whole thigh, 5 sits mid-thigh, 7 and 9 reach the knee. Between sizes, go down on the 2-in-1 pairs, because the liner is what holds.
