The Vuori Kore 7-Inch Shorts have been designed with versatility in mind. There’s also a built-in boxer-brief liner alongside the outer lining to add comfort.
Both the inner lining and outer fabric feel fairly light, but not as featherweight as some shorts on test.
The Kore 7-Inch Shorts are extremely comfortable and the materials feel really soft. The inner liner, in particular, is nice and stretchy, enhancing comfort even during intense workouts.
They benefit from a slightly more relaxed fit, without straying into baggy territory.
We found the inseam fitted around 3 inches above the kneecap – an ideal length for both running and strength workouts in the gym.
The elasticated waistband feels secure and doesn’t cause any irritation during movement, and there’s a drawcord to tighten and fasten if required.
There are two deep side pockets with a slash design opening so it’s easy to put your phone, cards and keys away so they feel secure. There’s also one back pocket that has a velcro fastening, which could be ideal for taking a key with you when you’re out and about.
