We make shorts for a variety of activities, such as running, hiking, gym workouts and an active outdoor lifestyle. The main difference between our shorts is the materials, fit, length, pocket configuration, durability and weight.
All our shorts are designed on the component layering system. They do not have liners. For the best running experience, pair with one of our base liners.
If you are looking for a short for running only, check out the Sykes PX 5'' or 7'' and Graves DA 7''. Want a hybrid short, the Brim FT 9'' works great as a casual, active short for hikes and short runs. The Prospect PX2 8'' is a longer roomy running short that is great for the gym.

SYKES PX 5” and TAHOE CL 5" in medium, best combo
Tahoe CL 5" Graves Da 7"
Thanks for the opportunity to play.
The SYKES PX 5” shorts and Tahoe 5" liner are the best combination. Ultimate comfort and quality
Graves L & Tahoe 5” M
Tahoe CL 5”, Graves DA 7”
5” shorts with 3” liners. Perfect for my year round runs!
Without a doubt – Sykes PX 5 and the Tahoe CL5" are perfect… they feel great and after a solid 1,500 miles are still holding up wonderfully.
I love them and wish more of my clothes performed like this pair does.
GRAVES DA 7" and TAHOE CL 5" would be great!
Graves because they are so tasty, M light grey. Tahoe 5” M black. Keep up the great work!
SYKES PX 7” and TAHOE CL 5" would be solid!
SYKES PX 5” shorts with TAHOE CL 5" baseliner!
Sykes 5” And Tahoe 8” would be a dream for a nice summer run!
The Sykes PX 5 shorts and the Tahoe CL 5 would be my choice. As both a trail runner and road, the benefits of an all around pair of shorts with a base shorts like the CL 5 wold be ideal. I’ve seen the product at events and I tried the hoodie and was blown away by the quality performance.
Plz Sykes 7” jet black and Tahoe CL 5” liner black would be great for me. Want to use them for the Berlin Marathon and also for the 200 mile Guadalupe Peak Trail from Texas to New Mexico. Need top quality products for shorts and you have the best, hands down!!!
I would totally go with the Tahoe 5” liner with the Sykes PX 7” shorts. Unbeatable combo!
Sykes PX 5 & Tahoe CL 3.
I have three pairs of you shorts & liners and I just love them. Keep up the great work!
