Separate Shorts & Base liner system

All Path Projects 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 two fabrics and four lengths.
  • This allows you to dial in a base liner based on current weather conditions and personal preference.

 

Technology

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.

Make Light Work of
Tough Efforts

Our Graves short is powered by Primeflex™, a spiralized dual-polymer fabric developed by Toray in Japan. It features intrinsic 360-degree stretch, exceptional shape recovery, and a soft feel against the skin — all without the use of elastic yarns that retain moisture. This allows for a highly durable and breathable short that stays light and moves with you when you're focused on the miles ahead.

Get Carried Away.

The structural integrity of Primeflex™ makes it uniquely suited to exceptional cargo capacity without unwanted bounce — as if your essentials are suspended in zero-g. Two side hand pockets and a large rear pocket are equipped with ultra-strong reverse coil zippers that ensure your phone and fuel aren’t going anywhere without you: a customer-favorite feature for good reason.

  • Welted reverse-coil zipper hand pockets and back pocket

  • No-bounce phone pocket

  • Side seam vent for additional range of motion

  • Wicking waistband with drawcord tacks 

  • Additional cargo pocket (7” only)

    Great build quality and fabric. Feels very smooth on the skin. The pockets and features are great. Just a bit confused with the orientation of the zippers opening upwards.

    Likely my end game workout shorts going forward

    Prior to purchasing these, my go-to workout and casual wear shorts have been Pace Breakers from Lululemon. While comfortable and lightweight, I feel like their durability has become a lot more questionable for their price point.

    Initial impressions of the Graves PX short has been extremely positive so far and I basically don't notice them despite how much stuff I'm carrying. I had low expectations for the back phone pocket but it just works really, really well for a standard sized iPhone. Everything about their construction looks and feels to be extremely high quality between the YKK zippers and the primeflex material. These may be my new daily short going forward.

    Anecdotally, if you come from a lifting background and have bigger thighs then I'd get the Relaxed Fit. My quads measure at about 25-26" and I would expect the Classic Fit to be a bit too tight.

    I prefer the 8" Graves for the daily running routine, 5" Sykes for race day.. Quality shorts that are light with all the right features.

    Marathon Ready

    Ran the Vegas Marathon in these and they performed incredibly well; light, breathable, and built for serious miles. The relaxed fit gives great range of motion and the fabric holds up well even through long desert miles. I just wish they had a touch more stretch or a slightly bigger split for extra freedom on the stride.

    Still, these shorts are dialed in for comfort, storage, and durability. Paired with my Tahoe CL liners, it was an awesome setup from start to finish. Another win from PATH Projects.
