Men's Distance Shorts

Description

The brainchild of BD mountain athletes, the Distance Run Short brings ultimate utility to a running short built for speed. Featuring a stretchy nylon/elastane fabric with a DWR finish, the Distance Run Short holds up to weather and abuse when out in the hills while carrying everything you need for a long day in the mountains. With two side drop-in pockets and two rear drop-in pockets, plus a zippered rear pocket to hold a phone securely, the Distance carries all the essentials. Reflective Black Diamond logos in the front and rear keep you visible in pre-dawn/post-sunset adventures. The Distance Run Short comes with an updated interior brief and is available in 5” and 7” inseam.
