Your favourite running shorts just got a higher rise, giving you that barely-there Accelerate feel with extra coverage. The Black Accelerate 3” High-Rise Running Short is for anyone who wants that ‘wearing nothing at all’ feeling while still staying locked in for runs, jogs, hikes or walks.
Once you start clocking kilometres, that less-is-more design really starts to show up. You can take every stride without being held back, with a 3-inch inseam and high side split that cut back on the bulk, and light, sweat-wicking fabric that keeps you nice and cool. There’s no heavy fabric making you feel heavy or sweaty as you pick up the pace, so you can open up your stride without any extra fabric catching or clinging.
You also get added coverage from the 5.5cm added through the front rise, giving you more fabric through your lower stomach without adding any bulk to your legs. It lets you keep the barely-there feeling, but with a little more security. That extra coverage doesn’t mean heat, either. We’ve added vented mesh to let air move through the waistband, with an external drawstring that lets you adjust your fit before you head out.
The little features also matter just as much. Bonded seams and raw cut edges keep everything smooth to cut down on rubbing, while a hidden back pocket gives you a handy spot for a key or gel or two. They’re a run staple for a reason.
