What Running Shorts Do You Recommend? |
Question:
I'm looking to buy some shorts for
a running enthusiast and would appreciate
some recommendations I'm looking to
spend up to around £25 - preferably
not much more than that.
Answer:
From a purely aesthetic point of view,
my wife would say that the normal
running shorts are truly hideous,
and that lycra cycling shorts type
running shorts are the way to go.
I like these myself - they hold the
undercarriage much more snugly than
the rather flimsy lining of normal
running shorts, and provided that
a key pocket is available, then almost
any make will do. I am currently rotating
Fila, New Balance, Ron Hill and several
pairs of Nike. All fine. For a rather
better fit, and not such a long leg,
you could try women's shorts (I find
that the women's large translates
to men's medium, and that there are
often bargains to be had). There are
no other functional differences as
far as I can tell.
