Waistband storage · phone held close to the body
Storage is built into the waistband so your essentials sit close to the body — no belt, no bounce, no extra kit.
"Changed my kit two weeks before London Marathon — couldn't find a belt that held my gels. My Pixel 9 Pro, five gels and gummies felt like they weren't even there, and were instantly accessible."
Matthew Ward · GB · Apr 2026"Ordered shorts from Mizuno, Adidas, North Face. These are the best by a country mile. Would highly recommend."
James · GB · Apr 2026"So comfortable. Carried 8 gels and my phone. Delivery in under two days — very happy."
Diane · GB · May 2026"My husband runs 50km+ a week and struggled to find shorts he liked. Now has 2 pairs of shorts, 6 pairs of socks & a vest. A real 5-star company — returns were easy too."
Kate · GB · May 2026"Wore them at the Run Killarney Half. Carried my phone, 500ml soft flask, ear phone case, salt sticks, 4 gels and my inhaler — didn't notice them. No bounce, no chafing."
Alicia Gayson · IE · May 2026"Bought 2 pairs of the 9″ 2.0. Use them for training and have run 2 marathons in them with no issues. Will definitely buy again."

Built for the runs where storage matters: marathon blocks, travel miles, race weekends and daily training.
Irish marathon Olympian. 2:09 marathoner. Built from the problem every marathon runner knows: where do you put your phone, keys and fuel when you don't want to wear a belt?
No. The phone sits flat against the waistband and the weight is spread around the waist, so there's no single point pulling or swinging — even at race pace.
Up to 10 gels around the waistband, plus your phone and a key — a full marathon fuel load with room to spare, no belt required.
Use the finder above. Pocket Shorts 2.0 for the lightest race-day feel, 2 in 1 for added support, the 9″ for more coverage, and Pocket Tights for cold weather and maximum storage.
Both. The pocket system is built for marathon race day and holds up across daily training, long runs and travel miles. Most runners keep one for racing and one for training.
Yes. Take them on a real run. If they're not for you, our 30-day run-test guarantee means you can return them.
No — that's the point. The storage is built into the waistband, so phone, keys and fuel all travel in the short. No extra kit to buy or wear.
