For years, I have had a reputation for developing an unpleasant odor below the belt line after a hard run/hike. My stench relegated me to sitting on towels in friends vehicles, and avoiding public interactions before I had a chance to shower. Until these guys came along. The first run, I put them to the test, and no stink. To ensure it wasn’t a fluke I decided to do a second run without washing them between. No stink. I suffered for sixteen hours attempting to traverse the most abhorrent mountain range I’ve ever seen. In the July sun, sweating more profusely than I have ever done before. Got back to the car, changed my shorts, and still no stink. To say I’m amazed, and absolutely pleased with the product is an understatement. These things are amazing! They’ve literally inspired me to redo my entire kit for the sake of their high quality products that are somehow impervious to stink. Zero regrets!

Greetings Again,

Pardon the repetition of reviewers here but just an update-took shorts out for an 11-mile run this morning. Same story, South Texas, hot, many chaffing opportunities which did not surface. Also, unlike customary running shorts, there's no pooling/ dripping perspiration once the sun shows up. Took'em in shower, let'em hang dry, & use tomorrow morning. Which is another perk-less clothes to attend to on laundry day. Durability will be the next test but I did break down & order the next length as the short version has been out of stock. Revolutionary shorts. Truly a pleasure running in them-no desire to return to my old duds.

Thank you for your time.

Greetings,

Middle aged middle of the pack runner who has tended to the sport for 5 years now. Live in south Texas awakening to feels like temps of 90 with humidity matching. Recently purchased shorts from a trusted source and the new design with same 3 inch inseam has shredded me raw. Searched for options & heard about Xoskin on podcast. Viewed these minimalist shorts & they are the best shorts ever worn. I have never worn spandex or compression...but these shorts make me feel like a combination of Lt. Dangle & Han Solo Berger (post earring insertion)-they perform very well-ultra comfy, do not drench with sweat nor retain stench! I will be replacing all my shorts with these. And they’ve been birthed in USA. Great product. Thank you for your time.

This company has had the best material on the market for a while, but the cut/fit just wasn’t there (at least for running quickly and with aggressive hip extension), but with these I can finally say I’ve found the best bottom a male could ask for. Truly the best short tight on the market.

Also of note: the sizing is great for runners. I’m just under a 28 inch waist for jeans, but I’m a pretty buff runner so I wear a medium and it’s like a custom fit. This means my extremely thin (male) runner buddies can still get tights that don’t fit awkwardly. With many companies I’m too small to get the fit right, so being a medium gives me faith in their size run. Been rooting for these guys due to their fabric for a while, but now I have something to recommend to everyone.
