does the phone pocket keep your phone dry from sweat?

Hi Julie. The phone pocket on the Chase 5" short is not made with any waterproof application and will not prevent sweat from getting through the fabric.

What’s the difference between the moment and the chaser short?

Hi Kelly! The Chaser 5" Short is designed for anyone looking for a distraction-free design with just-right coverage. It features storage options to secure everything you need, including two front pockets on the liner, a back zipper pocket large enough for a phone, and a bungee loop for your keys. It also features sweat-wicking material, and smooth cloud seaming for max comfort. Key updates for the Chaser 5" Short include a jersey brief liner that won't ride up or bunch and a new, wider, smoother waistband with an infinity drawstring for security and adjustability. Key callouts for the Chaser 5" Short include a lightweight 4-way stretch shell fabric and vents at the back for airflow. The Moment 5” Short is your go-to short for everyday runs. Key features of the Moment Short include stretch fabric and side splits that let your legs enjoy full range of motion, a drop-in pocket on the front waistband to secure valuables, and a drawcord that lets you adjust the waistband for a comfortable, secure fit. The main differences between the two models will be the waistband and material. The Chaser 5" Short is a more premium model with a higher waistband.

Is the material 100% polyester or does it have some spandex/elastane?

Hi Caroline! The Chaser 5" Short is 89% Recycled Polyester and 11% Spandex.

Is the back pocket big enough to hold a tennis ball?

Hi Brittany! The back pocket on the Chaser 5" Short is not big enough to hold a tennis ball, we recommend the Chaser 7" Short as this has larger pockets in the front that can fit a tennis ball.

How do you tie the infinity drawstring? I love the look of the mediums, but I need to draw the waist in a bit. I hate knotting it because it’s so hard to unknot every time. But it’s too short to tie like a shoelace.

Hi Lesley! The infinity drawstring was designed to be structured enough to hold the waistband in place, but flexible enough to knot it once and simply leave it tied. If you want more adjustability in the knot itself, though, using a slip knot will allow greater adjustability still.

The 5” running shorts, how are they sized? I’m 5’2” and weigh 140. Will I need a med or a large? I wear a size 8 to 10 in jeans

Hi Judy! We recommend a size Medium in the Chaser 5" Short if you wear a size 8 to 10 in your jeans.

How do these differ from the last model of the 5” chaser?

Hi Kim! The new 5" Chaser has the same material and length, but we updated the waistband and brief liner. The side slit is removed from the old Chaser 5" and we integrated a new back pocket.

Does the phone pocket cause bounce when running?
