Pearl Izumi Infinity LD Running Short

If you’re putting some serious miles on your feet, it’s important to gird your loins with the proper running attire. Pearl iZumi’s Infinity LD Short is one of the few that supports and hides your goodies, but are so comfortable that you could forget you’re wearing anything at all . The Infinity LD’s are comprised of Pearl Izumi’s Minerale polyester interior liner and a silky, lightweight polyester exterior that moves freely and holds chafing at bay.  The liner provides snug support, while the exterior sports a seven-inch inseam to keep your white man-thighs out of sight. The shorts dried quickly and stayed soft and comfortable during multi-day stage runs, and the Minerale material did a solid job of keeping odor at bay (particularly after occasional post-run dips in the nearest river). Elastic side panels provided some much needed flexibility while high-stepping on mountainous terrain, and the elastic waist band ratcheted down the fit without acting as a tourniquet. Two zippered rear pockets can hold energy gel, a few keys and some cash, while hook-and-loop hip pockets are secure enough to keep your empty Gu wrappers from littering the trail.
