Trail Repel Mid-Rise Brief-Lined 3in Running Short - Women's

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It’s a special treatment applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant. This means that if you’re caught in light rain or wet conditions, water will bead up and roll off the fabric instead of soaking in. This feature is particularly beneficial for outdoor activities like trail running, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable.

The inseam is the measurement from the crotch to the bottom of the leg, and in our shorts, it measures 3 inches. This shorter inseam is designed for comfort and freedom of movement, making it ideal for running and other athletic activities. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, consider how this length aligns with your personal style and comfort preferences.

Mid-rise refers to the height of the waistband, which sits between your hips and natural waist. This design offers a comfortable fit that provides support without being too high or low. It’s a popular choice for active wear, as it allows for ease of movement while keeping the shorts securely in place.

An elasticized waist allows the waistband to stretch, providing a snug and comfortable fit that can adapt to different body shapes and sizes. This feature is especially important during physical activities, as it helps prevent the shorts from slipping down and ensures you can move freely without discomfort.

In this context, "briefs" refer to the inner lining of the shorts that offers support and comfort. Made from soft, moisture-wicking material, these briefs help keep you dry and comfortable during exercise. They also prevent chafing, making them a common feature in running shorts for added support during your workouts.

The DWR coating keeps you dry by repelling light rain and moisture, while the built-in briefs provide support and comfort. Together, they create a functional design that allows you to focus on your performance without worrying about discomfort or getting wet, making your running experience more enjoyable and effective.
