Review on New Balance Accelerate Short Medium by Jared Gopalan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

They do the job just like most other brands

I have several other brands of running shorts (Asics, DSG, Nike and Under Armour). All of them pretty much fit my goals (fitness workouts). There are slight differences in fit and design between the two (e.g. Asics has the tightest fit which I prefer but no pockets, DSG, a Dick's Sporting Goods brand, uses the nicest materials and is better tailored than others, but has the longest/longest baggy fit (What I don't like is that Nike uses the thinnest and most difficult tip to use.) But for $20-$30 a piece, it's hard to find quality "custom" ones Expect clothing. These shorts are no different, and so my only complaint about the meaning is that they're too baggy even for my relatively large "cyclist" legs (which is just a vanity issue, given that they're on my narrow 28 -inch waist and my shorts look a bit silly (5ft). 5" frame). Otherwise, as I said, they do their job.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Mostly good but...
