I’d buy them again
Really nice shorts, light and very short. Great for runs in the heat. Very short though and the split goes all the way up and if you have large thighs like me your entire leg will be exposed

Whoa, super short
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received these shorts in my normal size (XL), but man are they super short. I am 6'4" for reference. If you are a runner and enjoy a shorter short, then these babies are for you. I personally would not feel comfortable wearing or running in these in public. But for the sake of someone who might like them, here's the scoop:
These shorts are made with a very lightweight material, and lined with a soft breathable material. The waistband is elastic and fits comfortable on my waist. The slits on the sides of the shorts make it easier to move your leg without restriction. The slit goes all the way to the elastic waist band. Other than being too short for me, I like the color, the minimal style, and comfortable material.

Shorts for a running Yogi
I am between Sm and Med sizes for shorts but the med was fine for fit. As a lifelong yogi I value the sense of freedom they provide, and of course the colour just had to be orange. The key pocket is too small and insecure for my car key when I am out on a country trail run but that is a minor flaw.

run don't walk
Very comfy shorts, they do show every bit of your leg on windy days but so what. The briefs cover what they need to cover and that is a good thing. I gave them a four star rating only because the lack of pockets, witch are nice to have for long runs. My size falls in between just right and runs big, so i could have gone with a size xs instead of a small. Nike does show xxs and xs on the size chart but does not offer it?

Small shorts even smaller than expected
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was nice to have the open vent for running but the cut of the short was even smaller than expected. Reasonable quality, not the best, not the worst. Good for travel exercise.

Nice short, needs more
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the mens Aerofit 2 short. I was really impressed with the materials, they had a comfortable waist band. The fit was not best. I do have large thighs and the fabric simply spread and had very little coverage. I would not suggest if you have large thighs.

Nice staple and sustainable running shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Aeroswift 2 running shorts are a nice, staple addition to any runner’s closet. I’ve never tried a men’s running shorts before, but I actually think these can be unisex. They are a nice, neutral black color and the men’s small fit me similar to a women’s small in Nike apparel.
These shorts have some nice features, like a drawstring and mesh detailing at the waist, two smaller pockets in front and two slightly larger pockets in the back, and pinhole detailing on the sides for more air flow. They are incredibly light and well-ventilated. I also love that these are made from at least 75% sustainable materials.
One thing to know: these are quite short, and there is no stitching to attach the side flaps. Those flaps only attach at the waistband, so they can expose quite a bit of thigh. And the interior built-in underwear is the only really solid or opaque material on these shorts. They really seem designed for ventilation more so than coverage and may be too revealing for some.
All in all though, these are nice, well-made shorts that will be great for hot summer runs.
