You asked for it, and here it is a side-by-side comparison of our run shorts.
No matter which shorts you choose, each of the Run:Speed Short, Groovy Run Short and Run:Punya Short are set up with the following features:
- Flat seaming for a chafeless run
- Inner liner for a line-free bum
- Zippered pocket so you stride hands free
- Quick dry shell so your sweat wicks and doesn’t look like you…had an accident
The Differences:
The Run:Speed Short is one of our top selling run shorts because of its technical functions and universal fit. The venting along the lower back/bum seams keeps you cooled off, and the curved hem along the thigh shows off the biggest muscle in your body. It’s a favorite of many of our Carlsbad triathlete ambassadors.
If you’re a little more humble about your gams – there are options, still! A few educators and guests have been going a size up in the shorts, since there is an inner drawstring (which won’t get lost in the wash!). Just pull that sucker tight and blaze the trails! A higher rise and a mid-thigh length make the Groovy Run Short ideal for those craving a few extra inches top and bottom. Since the inseam is longer, those who are concerned about the shorts “riding up” can quell their fears.
If coverage in the waist-zone is what you’re after, the extra fabric in the mid-section of the Run:Punya Short will do wonders (it’s moisture wicking, too). The left leg houses the zippered pocket on this short, so the contents won’t get in your way during an ab-workout or car ride. The bottom hem is cut straight across on this four-way stretch short, which is again ideal for those more modest about showing off all of their legs.
Now lace up your runners and get your own, by checking out your local lululemon store or our online store.
