Pearl Izumi Women''s Infinity LD Short

I ordered two pairs of these shorts after searching high and low for replacements of my old North Face workout shorts. I was looking for a pair of shorts that would be great for running and for weight lifting...and that had LOTS of pockets! I always workout with my iPod and I don''t like to use armbands when I lift so these shorts were a perfect fit (literally). The shorts have very lightweight material and don''t hold in body heat. I would certainly recommend these and although they are a bit pricey, I see them holding up through the long haul.

I got these shorts because I love how many pockets they have there''s 4 pockets, 2 velcro''ed ones in front and 2 zippered ones in back. The ones in front aren''t super useful because the little velcro tab doesn''t feel like it''ll hold small items securely (I stick my headphones in there sometimes when I''m not using them, and I think they''ll work pretty well for gel packs for long runs). However, the back 2 pockets are wonderful. I usually stick a credit card and a little bit of cash in one pocket and my iPhone in the other (yes, an iPhone 4 with headphone in the headphones jack and a slim case fits in the back pocket). It''s a very tight fit for the iPhone and makes the shorts sag down constantly during the run, but it''s a price I''m certainly willing to pay to not have a fanny pack or armband to hold my music player in.

The only thing I don''t like is how thin the material feels. It may be that its some sort of super strong man-made fabric and admittedly its held up pretty up in the wash so far, but I just feel like I''m going to tear it at any moment.

The liner feels comfortable and overall the shorts fit very well (size S fits perfectly for me, a woman of normal dress size 2-4). Would definitely recommend, just for the number of pockets available.
