Comments about Brooks 26.2 Walker Short:
I wore these shorts when I walked in the Seattle Breast Cancer 3-Day walk !!!! We walk 20 miles a day for 3 days....this was my fifth year walking and these were the best shorts I've worn....the fit was great (I wear a 1X) no riding up or chafing......I'm walking again next year and this will be the short I am wearing....!!!!!! Almost all Brooks products are high quality, with great wear and fit.....

Also, couldn't Brooks come up with some better colors than gray and black? I mean, I'm not a gal who wants or even likes pink and pastel apparel, but come on!Regarding size, I think they run true to size, but frankly, I've lost a lot of weight recently, and I'm not sure how they run compared to other brands the same size. I can say that the first pair I ordered were too big, and [...]
