Backbone PX

All PATH shorts are unlined. For the best performance, pair with one of our base liners.

Here are the advantages of our separate short and base liner system:

INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION 

• The base liner stays in place and wicks away moisture. 
• The short rides on the base liner and can move during a run without rubbing against your skin. 
• This virtually eliminates all chafing.

PERSONALIZED PERFORMANCE

• With our base liners you have a choice of three fabrics and four lengths. 
• This allows you to dial in a base liner based on current weather conditions and personal preference. 

TORAY PRIMEFLEX™

The flex is in the spiral yarn. This configuration gives the fabric a built-in mechanical stretch that goes to all 360 degrees of adventure. Thanks to this technology, the fabric will stretch and recover without using heavier water-absorbing elastics like Spandex. Upshot: outstanding breathability, abrasion resistance and a softer feel against your skin. All this at 40% the weight of the old school stretchy stuff. PrimeFlex is both eco and techno. The fabric is partially made from a corn-based material that uses less water during processing. There’s comfort from mile one to mile one hundred.

TRIPURE™ ELASTIC

Tripure is a high tech nano fiber that delivers incredible comfort and performance. The Benchmarks are superior stretch and recovery and fined-tuned temperature regulation. Dries quickly, anti-microbial, static free and durable beyond all normal expectations. The humble waistband gets its 15 minutes of athletic fame.
