Customer Reviews Brooks Sherpa 5" 2-in-1 Shorts

My new favorite running shorts!

My favorite shorts I have

I bought like 3 or 4 of these by far my favorite short ever. They have one of the best phone pockets out there very little bounce for my iPhone 11, I couldn't be happier.

The first time I wore this was at a race. I was a bit scared for not testing out my gear before hand, but this short really exceeded my expectations. Very light and soft fabric built in brief prevented chaffing during the entire race. This is my new go to running short now!

This is definitely my new favorite short when I need to take my phone with me on a run. I have a pixel 4xl with a pretty slim case and it just fits. If you have anything larger, you might struggle to get it through the zipper opening. The phone stays snug in place within the inner tights. The tights aren't firm enough to be considered compressive on me but they are good enough to hold everything in place.... The waste band is really wide which is comfy and I've learned the draw string is already "crossed" within the fabric so just tie your loops and it won't scrunch up the fabric in the middle. The mesh upper pockets are super handy for snacks or minor needs items. Sizing - I'm about a 30 waste and got the Small. They fit but are slightly loose, I think I'll go for the XS next time.

Perfect for my use, which is cross training (including treadmill, weights, Tai Chi. I plan to order a couple more pairs for rotation.

My new favorite running shorts. Comfortable, lightweight feel. Plenty of useful pockets without adding substantial weight. Fit true to size. Excellent customer service when I ran into a problem with payment for the order - It was Google's fault, but Brooks refunded a delivery fee that I inadvertently incurred.

Great short for both long runs and speed training. Very light, you almost don?t feel them after a couple of miles.

Comfortable fit, love the waistband. Put in 10k and no chalfing, excited to see how they hold up for a half!

Absolutely love these shorts. I?m a boxer brief guy, so I really like the feel of them. They?re super light, the inseam is a perfect length, and they store tons! I can fit my iPhone in the zipper pocket, and 3-4 gels in the other pockets around the waist without issue. I hope they last.

Love these! I've used them for a handful of runs so far and my phone fits perfectly in the zipper pocket and if I need to bring gels I can store them in the other elastic pockets. The only thing I would change would be to maybe add one additional small zipper pocket for keys as I get super nervous with just the loop

Love these for both running and hiking.

Love all of the pockets. Very light and keeps me cool on long runs.

These shorts have quickly become my go-to for everything from 5K to Marathon distance and everything in between. I especially like the 2 in 1 design and don't experience any chafing which is a common occurrence with other shorts with liners. It's also nice to have the inner liner when you're sitting down since the shorts are on the shorter side. They fit best after a first wash/use - at first the waist feels like it is going to be too large but the draw string does a good job of comfortably tightening. I would (and have) buy these again especially if they continue to come in new, fun colors!

Disclaimer that I am a brooks employee. These shorts are my favorite. I love the pocket big enough to hold your phone and the spandex liner keeps it in place. You can never have too many pockets!

Great design, material, fit. Waist never needs moves, needs adjustment. Plenty of pockets for food, handkerchief, headband, etc. Side pocket holds my iPhone 7+. Very helpful while riding bicycle. Highly recommended.

These are perfect running shorts for the streets and the trails. Lots of pockets for your fav fuel and a large pocket for your phone? Happy Running!

Best running shorts I?ve ever had. Love the boxer brief style liners. I find the brief liners ones are uncomfy for any run greater than a 5K but these are super comfy and feels like your wearing nothing. Highly recommend. The phone pocket is super secure. Gel pockets are great addition.

Functional comfortable shorts. My go-to for runs of any distance.

Great fit. No chafing. Excellent for longer runs. I will order another pair soon.

I have Nike and Nathan shorts, but these are now the only shorts I use unless all 3 pair are dirty. The zip up side pocket is absolutely perfect for my phone, since I constantly listen to podcasts or music while running or working out. The elasticized pouches along the sides and rear are perfect for holding all kinds of random things, including car keys and gels. AND nothing has ever fallen out, since that was one of my worries. I also love the feel of the material and I love the waistband and how it works. Although I don?t use Brooks running shoes, literally all my other running gear is Brooks!

Awesome shorts for running and the gym. Love the liner as it makes stretching and core work more discrete. They run a tad big but super comfortable with lots of pockets for gels, Keyes etc.

Love them. Waist band super comfortable and great options of pocket and pouches.

Plenty of pockets. Inter short worked well with the weight of the iPhone 12.

Shorts are great, they were just not for me. The 5 stars is a shout-out to the employees and the excellent customer service from Brooks.
