Retro shorts with modern technology.

The Van Cortlandt Shorts strike the ideal balance between race-ready function and common good taste. It starts by defining the proper 'short short' shape - one built for speed, but cut for dignity. Falling in the 4" inseam sweet spot and made from a lightweight and antimicrobial fabric, these shorts are a simple, modern take on the classic running short silhouette.

Made in Tracksmith's 2:09 Mesh, named after “Boston Billy” Rodgers, who set a 2:09:55 at the 1975 Boston Marathon. Legend is, he won wearing a mesh tee found in the rubbish… A great story yes, but since we’re not bin chickens, this’ll suffice.
