Customer Reviews Saucony Outpace 5" Shorts

I run 30-40 miles a week with my cross country team, and I wear this short for all of my tough workouts. The material is super soft and lightweight. It doesn't cling to my leg at all. The liner is extremely breathable but you can't see anything through it. The waist band is nice and snug without being constricting. Best shorts for running hands down.

Great for running. Will be getting more as they fit true to size and comfy.

fit and size very good ..but had no pockets

Great pair of running/work out shorts at a great price point!

New favorite run shorts. Even in the summer humidity of the Mid-Atlantic region, I do not experience any chaffing or hot spots.

Great look, great fit, great feel, great shorts!!!

I like them. They fell and look good. I bought the 3 inch inseam as well.

Love these shorts. High-quality fabric & comfortable.

Great replacement for old Saucony shorts. These are much lighter material and dry quickly.

Nice and light. Good fit. Not too long and not too short. Contributes to a very comfortable running experience

These are the best running shorts I've ever purchased. They fit right, are very comfortable and have great pockets that don't interfere with running. I plan on only purchasing these to run in.

These are now my new favorite running shorts. I prefer shorts with a light brief liner like these, not the 2-in-1 boxer brief style so they are perfect for me. They seem very well made and I love the lightweight, slightly stretchy material. Super comfortable and light while running. They don't get it the way at all but "disappear" when you get going. I have been wearing Nike shorts for a while and thought they couldn't really be improved on but Saucony did it and I'm now switching over to these. I've been getting more Saucony running clothes lately and I'm really impressed so far. I'm 5'9", 155 lbs and the small size was perfect.

Theses shorts are lightweight and comfortable. The mesh liner doesn't fit too tight. The only negative I have is they are a little longer than I would like but that's probably because I'm 5'8". Would definitely recommend.

I've always been a fan of Saucony's five inch length running shorts but these take the cake! The new recycled material they're using feels so light, soft, and fits perfectly. Also, so glad they moved the zipper pocket to the back on the waist, perfect for my house keys. I bought one pair to try them out and ended up buying two more pairs a few days later. Only thing I would recommend is more color options. Keep up the awesome work Saucony!

The waist band is a little stiff and tight. If got next size up then the shorts would be too large.

Fits just right. Comfortable but needs side pockets

These shorts are one of the more comfortable pair of running shorts I have used. They are light, moisture wicking, and have a small pocket to fit my keys during short to middle distance runs. I would use them for long distance runs, but the pocket space is too small to carry fuel or other materials.

Love them. Wish they had pockets. Little pricey though

Good shorts. The fit is great for me. I do, however, prefer the previous version of these shorts. The fabric and details were more refined (lighter material, side pouches for gels, even the drawstrings were nicer. These are great running shorts and Saucony nails the length and leg openings perfectly for me, they just feel like a bit of a step backwards in overall quality to me.

Great shorts, very comfy & perfect length. Drawstring design could be improved as they easily pull through the holes and get lost in waistband.

Shorts are okay- they fit well, just a little too long. I bought them because they were supposed to be 5 inch shorts, but they run a little long. I'm okay with them, just not my favorite pair.

It will be the same as the SAM800205-BK

I was anxiously waiting for a short similar to the Throttle to return, which in my opinion is the best all around short I've owned. Throttle is now impossible to find in my size so when the outpace said boxer brief liner (which the label that came on the short does too) I was excited for what appeared to be just a rebrand and similar short. This short has a regular brief liner, and it's comfortable and fine, but not quite what I was hoping for. I've run in them multiple times and they do the job as my last pair of clean shorts before I do laundry and wash my throttle shorts. These otherwise have nice storage and are comfy if you prefer the brief liner.

No side pockets??? Didn't realize until they arrived. Otherwise decent shorts. But why no pockets?

Waist band uncomfortable and back zipper pocket is difficult to access
