Excellent Workout Short

Lightweight and perfect length. Great workout or casual sporty short. I previously wore the License to Train shorts and tried these on during my last visit to Lululemon and love the style and fit. I will say that I'm getting used to only one zipper pocket - my previous shorts had zippers on the main pockets as well but I love the overall weight and length. 100% would buy again.

We love that the lightweight feel, 7" length, and versatile fit are winning you over for workouts and casual days alike. We hear you on missing those extra zippered pockets, but we're glad the overall style and comfort have made these a pair you'd happily buy again.

Buy it for life is about as strong an endorsement as it gets. We're delighted the Pace Breaker Linerless Short continues to deliver the comfort and durability you've come to rely on. Some gear earns a spot in the rotation, while other pieces become longtime favourites. It sounds like these shorts have done exactly that.
