Patagonia Training Shorts

Patagonia training shorts for running and the gym

When the effort heats up, a light pair of shorts that dries fast and never restricts is exactly what you want. Patagonia builds these from recycled, quick-drying fabrics with the liners, stretch and pockets that make them dependable for running, the gym and everything in between.

Light, quick-drying fabrics keep you cool

Built from airy recycled fabrics, these shorts shed sweat and dry quickly so they never feel heavy mid-session. That keeps you cool whether you are on a long run or moving through a circuit. For warm-weather training, the low weight is the main appeal.

Liners add support where you need it

Many styles include a built-in liner for support and comfort, so you can train without a separate base layer. Unlined options suit those who prefer their own. Choosing the right one comes down to how you like to run or lift.

Stretch and a relaxed cut free your stride

A relaxed, articulated cut and stretch fabric give full freedom for a long stride or a deep squat. Nothing pulls or rides up as you move. That unrestricted feel is what lets you forget about your kit and focus on the session.

Pockets keep the essentials secure

Secure pockets, some zipped, hold a key, card or gel so they stay put while you move. It is a small detail that matters on a run away from home. Practical storage rounds out a short built for real training.
