Although all I approach is surfing and trail running, they’re excellent.

The shorts are fantastic quality and work for running and climbing (once you have run to the base of the climb!). Service was excellent and the delivery fast. Cheers

Very comfortable , athletic fit and stretch feel , I’m throwing away all my Asian shorts after wearing this one ... I love the attention to detail like the air vents on the thighs , pairs well with a Duckworth merino wool boxer brief ... if you could make some more colors I’d order more ...

I find the best gear performs flawlessly and allows you to enjoy your activity. The Approach Short fits this definition exactly. I’ve used these shorts for quite a few training runs, and finally put them to the test on the Loowit Trail yesterday. The fit is spot on with good articulated patterning, the single back pocket is perfect for a few snacks or other essentials with a zipper that doesn’t get hung up & keeps everything secure, no friction points with the flat seams and sturdy waistband. These shorts have yet to show any signs of wear, looking forward to many more miles in them.
