Because of a recent traumatic leg injury leading up to the 40th LA Marathon, I came across the 2XU booth and the super nice/knowledgeable salesperson. I purchased these shorts and used them with great success. If I were to add anything, I would make side leg pocket to accommodate a cell phone. Most cycling shorts have now added this to their design, and it is a nice feature.

Great shorts with real compression, brilliant on my marathon training runs.

Great service from 2XU too.

This is already my 4th 2XU light speed compression shorts. I like the design with sufficient space for car key, energy gel and phone. The power of compression is moderate to tight, which is perfect for long distance running. The shorts demonstrates a balanced combination of function and comfort. Finally, I love this new color much for spring and summer look of being more energetic and lively.

I’m training for a marathon and my first longer runs with these shorts are much easier than they were before and recovery has been quicker!

Use them daily in my running and lifting routine. Perfect compression, can get a few days out of them before washing and they last. Recommend
