2 in 1 Breathable Workout Gym Shorts

Chafing on a long run and a phone that will not stay put are the two things that quietly ruin training kit. 2 in 1 workout gym shorts deal with both, and they dry fast enough that you are not carrying a wet pair home.

The two-layer design

The outer layer is a non-pilling breathing mesh. The inner layer is elastic, skin-friendly spandex and polyester, cut slightly longer than the outer so it stays where it should.

Because the compression liner is form-fitting without restricting you, it supports the thigh muscles and stops skin rubbing on skin. Anyone who has run more than ten kilometres in plain shorts knows exactly why that matters.

Fabric that keeps up

The fabric is quick-drying, lightweight and breathable, and it wicks sweat away rather than holding it. Therefore the shorts stay light through a session instead of getting heavy in the last twenty minutes.

The mesh outer is non-pilling, which is the detail that decides whether they still look good after thirty washes.

Pockets on 2 in 1 workout gym shorts

There is a zipped pouch on the outside back for car keys, cash and anything else you cannot lose. Two side pockets are cut deep enough that things stay in them while you move.

Separately, a phone pocket hides inside the compression layer. That is where your phone belongs on a hard run, because it sits against the leg and does not bounce.

The towel loop

A towel loop sits on the left side at the back. It sounds like a small thing until you have spent a session with a towel round your neck sliding off between every set.

Waistband and fit

An elastic waistband with a drawstring keeps the shorts from sliding down, which matters as much on a squat rack as on a run. Tie the drawstring properly and the fit holds all session.

Common questions

Do 2 in 1 workout gym shorts stop chafing?

That is the main job of the compression liner — it keeps skin off skin on the inner thigh.

Will my phone fall out?

There is a dedicated phone pocket inside the compression layer, specifically so it cannot.

How should I wash them?

Cold wash and dry in the shade. Heat is what ruins elastic and compression fabric.

Are they good for weight training as well as running?

Yes. The liner moves with you through squats and lunges, and the drawstring keeps everything in place.
