They feel great. The compression is higher than other brands I have worn, which makes them feel more snug and maybe higher quality

Compared to the standard light speed the material is noticeably more breathable and lighter. Product feels slightly more premium than the standard version as well. Jury is still out on MCS stamping but I guess it looks cool. Storage in these is better than the stand version as well with more volume and more useful storage, although the side pockets are slightly deeper and narrower than ideal. The rear pocket is a disappointment, having a seam in the middle of the opening making it impossible to fit larger items into what is a very large storage space. Would like to see this fixed so that a phone or smaller soft flask could be stored

Fit as described… snug but comfortable… not sure they help me run any faster… but at least I feel well supported and as such, faster..

I bought these to see if they'd help me recover better after long trail runs and hill repeats.... They have not disappointed. I've done a month of training jn these when on the hills and my quads and glutes don't feel so tenderised afterwards. This is great because I've been able to get straight back into a recovery run and strength training with these and the legs are feeling good. The fit chart gave the right fit, I've not been hindered jn my running and they didn't feel constructing or uncomfortable. The pockets are great to stash a couple of gels, your car key, and your phone and you can train away. If you follow manufacturers instructions for the washing as well, I've not noticed any reduction in compression or issues with the material. So if you're looking to add these to your arsenal to improve on the hilly trails or just in general. Grab these shorts.

Purchased these as I’ve been looking for something to carry some gels and my phone on long runs without a running belt and these are amazing. Plenty of pockets, tight enough that nothing moves around either.

Highly recommend for anyone in a similar boat.
