It happened. The regular Pocket Joggers and Long Pocket Joggers, two of our best-selling shorts, got together and had a much-sought-after mid-length offspring. For all those perfection-seekers, these babies are not too long, not too short, and have been getting many pre-order requests from staffers at The Nest. Of course, they include all the bennies of the Pocket Jogger family, including Nyelle™ Compression, a large rear zip pocket, waistband mesh pockets, and on-leg side pockets. You can pocket, you can jog, you can pocket jog forever and ever, at any length. Note: this design includes the more relaxed waistband fit and overall waistband improvement compared to 2020.

- Nyelle Compression (nylon/spandex)
- interior drawcord
- rear zip waist pocket
- rear side mesh pockets
- 2 leg pockets that fit phone
- 7" inseam (all sizes)
- constructed with Bluesign Approved Fabrics

see-through trash

Ummm...These are completely see-through.
You don't even have to order a too-small size to show your undies in public- they're see-through even when they fit properly. Even if they're a dark color. Even if your undies are almost the same color as the shorts. In fact, you can see the label of the shorts through the shorts. I had friends recommend these for the pockets (distance runner, need the gel pockets) and I was so prepared to be psyched and instead I'm in a complete blind rage. They must have changed the fabric between when my friends bought a few years ago and now. Why would a company that supposedly puts female athletes first do this to us? And more importantly, how did they not freaking notice? Did they not bend over to tie their running shoes in the their own darn shorts before they made thousands of pairs to sell to unsuspecting customers? Bad product, bad business, bad on Oiselle for milking the pro-women jargon to make us think they're different then making the same cheapo spandex shorts as everyone else and charging big money for them based on the advertising. Nothing about this shopping experience made me feel good or supported as a female athlete. Especially not the part where they charged me $6 for a return label to send back shorts that are fully defective because they're indecent to wear in public.

not happy with the changes

I have previously purchase two of these and been very happy with them. This pair has changed. The fabric is too thin and no longer falls into the 'compression' category (which is why I bought the first two). Being that loose, anything you put in the side pockets now falls clear to the bottom when you run. Much prefer the sturdier fabric; these now feel cheap.

Lovely with a small caveat

I love these so much! Great length, very cozy, so far chafe proof. And pockets!!!!! One small note on the pockets, I do with they didn’t go alllll the way to the bottom of the short as that tends to create the bottom pocket bulge and bounce. I’m
Planning to pull out my sewing machine and close the bottom twoish inches of the pocket to see if this helps.

Who knew I could love bike shorts again?

The last time I wore bike shorts, I was a high-school volleyball player. 20 years later, I thought I'd feel self-conscious wearing form-fitting shorts until I realized they're just shorter versions of my beloved leggings. After a lot of research, I took the leap with these joggers and I'm so glad I did! They don't ride up, don't chafe, and allow me to focus on my run. Reading other folks' comments... Not sure if it's just the black color that's see-through. I purchased purple and they're totally opaque. I also appreciate the thicker fabric, which feels super supportive (I live in the desert where temps are around 75 by 6:30 a.m.)

Not the usual Oiselle quality

2 stars for the comfort and the pockets. Very disappointed because the black are completely see through. The one thing I always loved about Oiselle is the quality of fabric but these are a no go!!!

Praise be!

I've had several seasons of the pocket joggers — everything in between from very good to very bad (OMG the waistband sitch last season) but these ones are right on the money! They're perfectly TTS, hug and lift in all the right places. The length is that perfectly-kinda-modest for overly long thighbones. I was a little skeptical of a 7" length but they hit at just the right spot, and didn't move at all while on the run. Pockets comfortably fit my phone in the back, too — no bounce.

These definitely deserve to be in your run rotation!

Nice for the right use

I purchased two different shorts for the upcoming summer, these and the power pocket shorts. I found the fabric on the pocket jogger soft, the length providing good coverage. However, its designs has some drawbacks. I would not recommend the heavier fabric for hot summer running. Also, the side pockets are lined literally to the hem of the short, which just doesn't feel great when I try to stick a phone in there, even just walking. Perhaps they will consider a shallower pocket next year. The obsidian color is a nice addition. I purchased my usual size 8.

If you loved the Strider length, you’ve gotta try these

4’11, 145lbs (size 4s when i was 135lbs but I got these in size 6 bc Quarantineweight 🤷🏼‍♀️)

Once Oiselle discontinued the Striders I was flailing in shorts-length land — my legs are too thick for 3-5 inchers, so I ended up in the super longs — and while the O-amazing Longs were better than the 3.5 lengths, as a very short person they almost felt more like short capris than actual shorts (which frustrated me immensely, there being no in-between size. Last season at O was weird.)
They worked though and I bought several pairs.

So I almost didn’t buy these cause i didn’t NEED them. But I loved the color and I DID gain a bit of weight since last summer so I let myself get a pair in a larger size just to help motivate me. And guys. THIS LENGTH. It’s like the Striders back from the dead but in a WAY more comfortable, perfectly stretchy-but-compressive, POCKETSTY, perfect form. The waistband feels great, it’s not the terrible waistband debacle from last season. The fit is true, it’s not the terrible super-tight sizing debacle from last season. (WHAT WAS THE DEAL LAST SEASON, GEESH.)

I’m having to physically restrain myself from buying every other color. OISELLE NEVER CHANGE THIS FIT PLEASSSE.
