GURU TIP:  This short runs slightly large!

TECH TIP: A reliable piece in New Balance’s running line: The 5″ Impact Run Short has a simple look with a lot going on behind the scenes. If you’re a fan of pockets, this pair has you covered. If you’re going out for a spring or fall run and need to shred an upper layer, you can collapse and place in the storage tunnel along the backside. There is another zippered pocket along the waistband to store nutrition or small objects like keys. This short fits above the waist for comfort while moving. Also features NB DRY, a fast wicking technology that pulls sweat away from the body.

BUY THIS IF...you want a cool, comfortable short to wear around in the summertime. 

DON’T BUY THIS IF...you prefer a short that is a bit more snug.
