sustainability

Groundwork Knit is made using a premium grade nylon that has a significantly tighter woven filament than standard synthetics. Tighter filaments mean less microfiber shedding in the wash-cycle, plus greater durability of the garment (longer lifespan, more wearing).

Groundwork Knit fabric is also bluesign® certified meaning it is free from harmful chemicals and is fabricated in a way that meets a high environmental standard.

Perfect shorts!

These are my new favorite running shorts by far. Super comfortable. The fabric is lighter than other pairs I own from different brands but way better quality and more durable. The pockets are perfect for storing my phone, gels, keys, and snacks, and they have never chafed me. I am an XS in most bottoms (5’1 and ~100lbs) and XS fit perfectly.

INCREDIBLE!

I just bought a pair a couple months ago and just finished two ultra marathons while wearing them, a 50k and 100 miles. It was so nice not having to wear a pack if I didn’t want to during my races. Size is spot on, and it held everything I needed including food, water, headphones, squirrels nut butter and my phone! I absolutely loved these shorts, can’t wait until they get more black ones in stock as well as more color options. Thanks for such a great product! Looking forward to trying more of Janjis gear!

Awesome shorts!

I typically only wear tight shorts like these with a 6" inseam or greater because of chafing and riding up, but I just purchased these for a half, and they were great! They did ride up some, but not an uncomfortable amount and no chafing! The storage in the pockets in next level - I'm talking multiple water bottles, phone, snacks, keys, shirt.

I'm 5'7" and 145 lbs. and typically wear a Medium. I ordered a medium and they fit me perfectly

Best Trail Running Shorts!

I’ll buy these for life! Absolutely love them. They do ride up a little, although the elastic helps. I wish they made these in 5” for that reason with all the pockets! Running with water bottles is a little unrealistic- it was just too much bouncing. But I load the pockets full of dog leashes/bowls, phone, jackets, sunscreen, and so many snacks!

Absolute favorite shorts

I love these shorts. They are light weight with just enough compression. They have so many pockets In exactly the right places. The side pockets hold a slim water bottle perfectly which doesn’t move while I run and I can keep my phone in the other pocket. These shorts are really perfect!

The POCKETS! I love the deep pockets that these shorts have to offer. I run marathons so I need places to shove everything! They are perfect!

Jangi Trail Shorts

I bought a pair of the 3.5” Jangi trail shorts about a month ago and liked them so much that I ordered a second pair. These shorts are so lightweight and comfortable. I am one who doesn’t like carrying water bottles in my hand on my long runs. I have tried carrying water in belts but they just bounce all over. The pockets on these shorts are just what I have been looking for. I can easily carry a water, even two if needed, and still have room for fuel without any bouncing. I am totally hooked on these shorts!
