Product Insights
The Elastic Waist Loose Flowy Short 2.5" Length by I.FIV5 offers a secure fit with a wide elastic waistband and built-in panty that stays in place during running, while the panty and waistband design prevent see-through during squatting; the elastic waistband keeps side vents at their designed height for steady airflow and modesty, and the Polygiene treatment ensures permanent odor resistance; however, the inner slit pocket only holds small essentials and may not securely hold a phone during running.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Runs larger than typical, especially through the waist; the wide elastic waistband helps keep the shorts in place. Sizing down from your usual size may give a closer fit.
- Opacity
- Built-in panty adds opacity and should prevent see-through, including during squatting or bending and in lighter colors.
- Airflow
- Elastic waistband keeps side vents at their designed height for steady airflow and modesty during running.
- Pocket security
- Inner slit pocket holds small essentials only; a phone may slip out during running.
- Built-in panty
- The built-in microfibre jersey panty is integrated into the shorts and is designed to stay in place through seam construction and stretch; rolling during running has not been specifically reviewed for this style.
- Polygiene treatment
- Polygiene anti-odor treatment is permanent and never washes out.
- Mid-distance running
- A verified reviewer describes these shorts as flattering and great for mid-distance runs.
- Lining fit
- One verified reviewer found the internal lining runs small while the waist is almost baggy.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Elastic Waist Loose Flowy Short 2.5" Length: Choose this if you want running shorts with a loose, flowy layered look and a short 2.5 inch inseam that sits above mid-thigh. They're made of lightweight quick-dry stretch fabric in a recycled polyester blend, with Polygiene technology described as eliminating odour and preventing bacterial growth, plus a built-in breathable microfibre jersey panty and a wide elastic waistband for comfort. Note that storage is limited to a single inner slit pocket, so plan accordingly if you carry more than a small item.[1,2,3,4] | Fluid Comfort-Waist Ripstop Short 2.5" Length: Choose this if you want an ultra-short pair for wide-ranging movement: the loose, relaxed A-line cut has a 2.5 inch (6 cm) inseam ending at the upper thigh, a good leg opening, a side slit, and a wide, soft high-rise jersey waistband. The lightweight, breathable stretch ripstop fabric (78% reprocessed nylon, 22% spandex) has side vents with perforated hem panels, Polygiene odour control, a hidden waist pocket, and small reflective dots, so it suits warm-weather training or running. Note the fit is loose rather than compressive, and captured listings show sizes X-Small to Medium in Black, Brown, or Burgundy.[5,6,7,8] | Perforated Lightweight Short 3" Length: Choose this if you want the brand's lightest and shortest running short (3 inches, per the merchant), intended for running and other high-intensity cardio. It pairs a fully perforated lightweight stretch fabric with a breathable built-in microfibre jersey panty, elastic drawstring waist, Polygiene odour control, reflective accents, and recycled-polyester content. Note that it has no pockets, so it suits minimal runners who carry nothing.[9] |

So flattering
Absolutely love these shorts, they are very flattering and great for my mid distance runs. I do find I’m maybe between sizes? The internal lining is a bit small but the waist is almost baggy, to the point where I’m unsure if I should buy a small? Wish it had a way to taper the elastic because the band is very comfortable, more so than a tie-waist.
