Shorts and base liners comparison

Shorts and base liners comparison

BY PATH PROJECTS APRIL 16, 2019

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.

Here is a 1 page short comparison + our shorts size guide. Below you can find our short details with images.

Jignov,

Just get out and do it! Yes, trails are different than roads, but you can start with what you have and slowly adjust to the new conditions, just don’t over do it the first time out.

Nate Beaudin,

Sykes PX 5 and Tahoe CL liners would be perfect for my move to Hawaii soon.

Christopher Moring,

Already have the SYKES PX 5" SHORT – JET BLACK – MD and TAHOE CL 5" BASE LINER – FROST GREY – MD. The Olive gray SYKES and black Tahoe would go well in my new collection of Path Projects apparel. My Black Muir cap is pretty sweet also!

Luis Espinoza,

Hello,

Never tried any of these shorts before but always look at them and contemplate the buy. Justifying the coast is another issue. However I just finished my first ultra marathon and have 5 more this year. I would love the opportunity the test out your gear and rate and review. Struggling nursing student working in the emergency room, hopefully my pitty helps ;).

Stephen Kazinski,

I’ve been looking for a new short and baseline combo. I’m not to pleased with my UnderArmor or Nike options at the moment. I’d love to get my hands on the Prospect PX2 8" Navy & Tahoe CL 8" Black.

Dan Roberson,

Sykes PX 5" because it’s nice to not have anything near the knees. Probably black because I sweat far too much to be seen in gray. Tahoe CL 3" in black because there just shouldn’t be tights seen under shorts.

Michael Potter,

Sykes PX 5 and Tahoe CL liners to cover my fat ass.

Been looking to represent, but wife dictated I use all my shorts before I get more. Benevolent-ish dictatorship up in here.

Hector Villagran,

Prospect PX2 8" Navy & Tahoe CL 5" Black would be awesome!

Austin A,

The black 5" Sykes and Tahoe liners would be the envy of the dirt ribbon set in the East Bay Oakland Hills.

Peter Hill,

The Sykes PX 7” in Olive Grey paired with the Tahoe CL 5” base liner in black would be the PERFECT combo for my summer adventure to CO and my ascent up Mt. Belford and other trail running adventures around Buena Vista. Thanks in advance!

Jonathan Garner,

I teach outdoor ed to struggling youth in Virginia and run in the woods as often as I can. I hope to win a pair of Tahoe cl 3" base liners in XL black and Graves Da 7" shorts in XL Blue black.Thanks for having a contest and focusing on quality.
Kelly Garner,

Would be awesome to try the Tahoe CL 5 Frost Grey and Graves Da 7 Blue Black!

Victor Sosa,

Sykes px5 with the Tahoe 5 look interesting

Matthew,

Sykes 7” w/ Tahoe 5”!

Tim Smith,

Need to try the Tahoe CL 3” baseline combined with the Brim FT 9” in stone for a post run beach party
