I LOVE LOVE LOVE these shorts – -my absolute go to for running and everything in-between
JNG –
The difference in how the legs are cut out compared to the previous generation is disappointing – this style is cut tighter to the leg. it doesn’t ride up as much but it is too tight and the air flow is less. the vents along the waistband do absolutely nothing. I dont understand their placement – unless you have a flat butt there is just no airflow there. 5” not having pockets is also annoying.
Brooks advertises the 5” and 3” as an option for those not happy with the tighter fit of the 7”. Sorry to report that these are not any looser compared to the 7”s. will keep the one pair of 7”s I got as a last resort with pockets while i try other brands again.
these might work if you have a mildly curving rear and minimal thighs but I have linebacker thighs and a butt.

I am 5’9″, 155 lbs with 40″ hips and a 30″ waist. I ordered the large and the medium to try on and I returned the medium. The medium was a perfect but snug fit and the large is a bit looser. I’ve taken these shorts out for a 13-mile run and they were incredibly comfortable. I barely knew they were on and my thighs did not eat them. I also like to support brands that are using recycled material in their products.

I bought these to try out on the volleyball court and I now have a new favorite pair of shorts. Back to buy other colors.

I wanted to love these. The fit and fabric was great, however the back “vents” were just weird. They wouldn’t lay flat, causing unnecessary bumps on my back side.
Charlotte –
5 inch length are perfect!! Love the wide waistband, as well as the variety of colors . Have 4 pairs!

These are my go-to running shorts. They are totally comfortable and never ride up. I like the higher waist because it doesn’t cause rolls and is more flattering. No zippered pocket, sadly, but there is a kind of flap pocket for keys. I’m on the short side, and these are the perfect length, although I also wear the 7″ and love those too.
Gwen –
Really beautiful pair of shorts. Tried many brooks shorts.
These have all the bells and whistles.
I may return though as they’re slightly larger than other brooks styles and seem longer than advertised.
Very good coverage if that’s your need.
I prefer brooks shorts over Lulu and athletica. They seem more fitness oriented.

I got these because they were recommended as shorts that don’t ride up – and they live up to that name! Very flowy and it has a stretchy drawstring on the waist band. I was worried that the lining would show from the outside, but you can’t tell at all. I’m probably gonna get a few more!

These are well made shorts, but best for a girl who has muscular or large legs. I’m 5’5, 118, and athletic/lean. So, the legs, hips and butt areas had too much material for me. I had ordered a small.

These are nice shorts, nice material and not too short but a 6″ short would be welcome, the 7″ looks frumpy on me. I cut the liner out of all the shorts with a liner, I do not understand their purpose and I think they add discomfort and weight. Without the liner, this is a nice, thin, cool short. The size is a bit generous but I want summer clothes to be cool and comfortable above all else so this works for me.

I have 2 pairs of these shorts and I absolutely love them! They are not too short and not too long, the length is just right. And they are soft and comfortable and breathe very well.
Alison –
I’m 5’10”, 140lbs. The medium fits perfectly, not tight not loose, right below the belly button. The 5 inch inseam was exactly what I was looking for, not long or short.
Katie –
I bought these for my 15 yr old daughter for cross country practice. She prefers the 5″ rather than the shorter inseams, so we’re glad you offer them. As with all Brooks shorts I’ve purchased for myself or for her, they fit very well. They are attractive, flattering, and comfortable. We like the way the drawstring is in the waistband– all one piece so it won’t come out the washing machine.
Alissa –
Love the length, not too short, not too long. Very lightweight and perfect for hot days
Decynr –
Awesome shorts! They are very lightweight and don’t cling. I am smack between S/M and went with the M for a little more room so I could wear them casually too (pro tip: if you want them more fitted, size down). The length hits just right for long/tall which I love. Tons of pockets and the waistband hits just right. I didn’t experience any riding up or awkward pulling. Will definitely buy more.
Sheri –
My new favorite shorts. Perfect fit and length. Fitted but not at all tight. Comfortable waistline. I have 2 pairs and will buy another color asap.

loooove! best running shorts ever
Kelsey –
Love it for running and walking. I like a short with a liner, and this one is comfy and cool during activity, but, for this 45 year old, still long enough to wear for the rest of the day. Sleek, comfy fabric. Beautiful hem design, smooth–but not tight–fit. I’m 5’5″ 140 and small fits perfectly. Rise ideal for me. Plenty of discreet pockets. Absolutely worth full price.
Chelsea –
These are the absolute perfect length for someone not wanting to show off too much, but not wanting to be a grandma either. They are so comfortable and light.
Della –
Great fit. Perfect length. Quick dry. Pockets. Very comfortable. I bought two more pair. I?m 60, 5?3, 116lbs. Size small fits loose but I like them.
Meghan –
Wide waistband is super comfy & the length is perfect! Will definitely stock up next time they go on sale.
Cheryl –
I love the Chaser 5″ shorts. I have 3 different colors now and wear them a lot. They are so comfortable and light weight which makes running in the summer heat and humidity much easier. Please never stop selling them!!!
Diane –
Love these shorts, I use for cross training – my fourth pair.
Anonymous –
The fit is as expected but please offer these without the liner. I have many pairs of these shorts and I always cut them out. The shorts are cool and comfortable in warm weather, dry relatively quickly and look nice.
The phone pocket is interesting. It is a puzzle sitting in the back of the waistband that is not easily accessible. It has a top flap and a bottom flap and the phone gets pulled and pushed between them. A regular side pocket with zip would be nice.
