Good balance between lightweight & quality

There is a good balance between lightweight material but still feeling like good quality. However,the first time I put them on and went to tie the draw strings, one of the holes ripped in a line along the fabric by the waist band. Be careful with this. A part from that they are a nice lightweight pair of shorts, dry quickly in the rain and offer plenty storage options, keys, phone etc.

Edit: I have since been contacted by Janji who clarified that they do offer a full replacement and there was a miscommunication error.

Why oh why did I wait so long?

I'd been on the fence about getting a pair of these for probably two years. They've been in and out of my basket so many times they must be dizzy. I just kept finding it hard to justify spending what felt like (and kind of is) a lot of money on a simple pair of shorts. I mean, I could just swing over to (insert name of your local big box discount "sports" retailer here) and grab a black pair of shorts for a tenner.
Well, let me tell you something. These things are worth the money. They flow, they float, they hung and they do just simply do the job. The phrase "Forget you're wearing them" gets used a lot and to me I would rather be certain I'm wearing shorts rather than running by the local primary school with my spuds and courgette on display. However, these shorts are so light and so well fitted that although you can be certain your bits and bobs are indeed "contained", you won't in any way be restricted or bothered by the shorts.
The fabric feels lush, almost satin like.
It may have taken me two years to buy these, looking at how well they're fairing so far, I'm not going to actually need another pair for easily that long.
I'm officially a fan.

Best running shorts I've ever tried! Was looking for something similar to an old pair of Salomon brief-lined shorts I've had for many years and this is the next best thing. (Very) lightweight, breathable, flattering cut and they feel great to run in! The key pocket by the groin area is perfect and minimal, the back pocket is great for some nutrition or a card. Personally I prefer to run with my phone in hand to avoid the dreaded phone-bounce.

Love them

Great shorts. They look good and feel even better. Very well made. I’ve worn and washed them about 10 times and they still look like new. I think they’re going to last a long time. And I love the colour! Very happy with them.

Nice shorts, impressive features

These shorts feel nice to wear and fit well. I was impressed by the thoughtful features that are missing from many other shorts. Firstly, there is a small internal pocket for keys. Secondly, the rear pocket is big enough for my phone. It takes a bit of getting used to as the shorts feel weighed down at the back. But a bit of adjustment of the drawstring makes them very secure and before too long you don't notice the phone bouncing behind you.
