Traditional outdoor brands beware, the Men’s Nike Trail Second Sunrise Shorts are an instant favorite of ours thanks to their secure zipper access hand pockets, side thigh pockets, and extremely stretchy-yet-durable fabric. Learn more in our Nike Second Sunrise Shorts Review . Weight: 6.0 oz (size L, 7″ inseam, liner removed) Price : $75 Pockets : 2 zippered hand, 2 envelope side thigh, 1 zippered center back, 2 front gel-sized Material : 80% recycled polyester, 20% Spandex Inseam : 7″ & 5″ Built-In Liner : Yes Waist: Elastic band with external drawstring Average User Review : small sample size Pros : Very stretchy. Durable face fabric. Sustainable. On trend. Many functional and secure pockets. Large lower thigh notch. Cons : No women’s version. 20% spandex fabric blend is heavier, slower to dry. Hand pockets are kind of shallow. Cut out the built-in brief liner. Features At their core, the Nike Second Sunrise Shorts are true trail running shorts. They have a short inseam (5″ or 7″), large notch, elastic waistband, stretchy fabric, and bountiful storage. They are extremely comfortable to wear and very stretchy. That’s thanks to the 20% spandex blend fabric. However, this comes with the downside of slightly increasing dry-time and weight. Maybe don’t choose these if you plan to stow them more than wear them or if you’re particularly sweaty. These shorts come with a brief-style built-liner. But it’s unimpressive, and we recommend cutting it out and wearing these shorts in conjunction with your preferred running underwear. It’s the zippered hand pockets that make them versatile and perfect for many activities besides just running in. They’re secure enough to store valuables like a phone, and shallow enough to prevent bounce and sway. Perhaps the most interesting feature are the envelope-style side thigh pockets, which can store lightweight accessories, like gloves or a hat. Primarily it’s the Second Sunrise’s pocket configuration that makes it one of our favorite trail running shorts for hiking Verdict The swoosh delivers. Nike Trail Second Sunrise Shorts are an excellent pair of both trail running shorts and hiking shorts, thanks to the bountiful pocket configuration and extremely comfortably and movement-friendly fit. We recommend cutting out the built-in liner underwear.
