Men’s Original Mesh Lifestyle Shorts – 5”

Built for men who move. These 5” Mesh Lifestyle Shorts use a mid-weight performance mesh that delivers ventilation without feeling thin or cheap. The texture is structured, durable, and crisp—giving you coverage and airflow in the same package.

The 5” inseam hits that modern athletic sweet spot: more mobility, more leg, more range of motion. An elastic waistband with an internal drawcord gives you a secure, stay-put fit, while the deep side pockets are sized for real carry—not shallow, useless pocket space.

No liner. No cling. No extra bulk.

Just a clean, breathable short you can train in, run in, or wear all day without thinking about it.

Inseam: 5” (built for maximum movement and a modern athletic fit)

Model: 5'8", 185 lbs — wearing size Medium

  • Single-Layer Performance Mesh — Soft, breathable, and structured for all-day comfort without compromising airflow.
  • Athletic 5” Inseam — Above-the-knee cut built for mobility, range, and a modern training silhouette.
  • Secure Elastic Waistband — Stays locked in with a front drawcord for a custom, stay-put fit.
  • Movement-Ready Design — Versatile enough for lifting, running, or off-duty wear.
  • Deep Utility Pockets — Two spacious front pockets designed for real carry, plus a rear wallet pocket.
  • No-Liner Build — Zero restriction, zero cling—just unrestricted comfort.
  • Lightweight, Quick-Dry Feel — Mesh construction dries fast and keeps you cool under pressure.
  • Machine wash cold with like colors
