Please note:
- We use Asian sizing. If you have large quads, are looking for a more comfortable fit, or are used to western sizing, consider going up a size. Size guide here.
- Sherpas are designed with no inner liner so pair with our T8 Commandos men's running underwear for a super comfy, guaranteed chafe-free experience. Bundle and use discount code 10FOR2 for 10% off - and both come with our 30-day satisfaction guarantee!
- Men looking for a shorter racing short can consider the ladies version. It works surprisingly well and looks sharp too.
- Pull your Sherpas over your belly button - grandpa style! - then tie the drawstring tight and pull it down over your hips for minimum bounce. Inside and outside slits allow it to be tied inside or outside the waistband.

Need side pockets
I like this shorts, but its better if it has two side pockets.

Sherpa shorts
Everything I want in a running short, I don’t use my other ones anymore.

Great Product
Very light stretchy material that feels great when your running. The pockets on the side are also very handy when you go on longer runs.

Number one
The pockets on these shorts are really good, they can securely hold a iPhone as well as a 0.25L soft flask and some gels. Material is really soft and the length of the shorts is perfect. Works well in hot weather and also rain. These are now my number one shorts.

wonderful everything -- but extra extra small fit!
It would have been great to know just how small the T8s are. I ordered a size M and this is way smaller than other men's M shorts.
