Not very comfortable when running and cycling

The shorts are well made, back pockets and pants do not bulge. I give four stars because the front wheel is not very comfortable when cycling and running. It seems really tight. Perhaps a "pocket" design similar to regular underwear would be more convenient?

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • -

Great shorts: men

I needed new triathlon shorts for Ironman 70.3 which I just did and I needed them fast so it was Revain Prime. I'm relatively new to triathlon but I've tried a few different shorts and these are the most comfortable shorts I've tried. I just used the wrong "Race Fit" cycling jersey with shorts and the combination worked well, but I liked the fit and feel of the shorts so much that I may need to buy a triathlon top to match.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Outlet required

Excellent men's shorts

Excellent shorts. I've had them for about 2 weeks. I'm training for my first triathlon so this is my first pair but they are comfortable, don't bike at all and stay in place for the swim. The back pockets are great too. From my research they seem to be good value for money and I am happy with them. Will update if I have any problems. For reference, I'm about 5'6", waist 31-32, and size M fits me perfectly. The waist is perfect and the length is 1-2" above the top of the knee.

Pros
  • beautiful thing
Cons
  • Some flaws

Very good shorts for the price

Very good shorts for the price. They are listed as race shorts, not casual training shorts. I have trained them many times and had no problems. They were comfortable, didn't chafe, and my butt didn't hurt at all during any of my 50-60 mile bike rides. The pad is small but sufficient for half an Ironman. No issues swimming (putting on or taking off a wetsuit), butt didn't hurt after 56 miles at race pace and I had no issues with chafing while running. I would recommend them to anyone doing…

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • There are nuances

2 SIZES OUT for Active

These are 5 star shorts; However, I'm deducting a star because of the size, which is MUCH HIGHER. I have a 32" waist, so according to the size chart I should order a medium size. I ordered a large one based on other reviews and just in case, but had to return it as it was too small. Reordered XL and they seem to fit perfectly - even around the waist. I wear compression shorts, tops, sleeves and anything else that is compression all the time and I know how they should fit. The size chart may…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Slim

Good Results - Active Shorts

These shorts strike a very good balance between riding and running comfort. They went as far as possible with padding without feeling like wearing a diaper while running. The main thing they got right was the stitching around the inner lining. Some of the other shorts I tried on had to be returned due to a large crotch hem that literally cut through my inner thighs. They have a seam that fits completely inside the shorts so the lip doesn't relatively intrude into you. If you are on the limit of

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not the best
