Best Points: Comfortable fit. The colours - black & fluorescent yellow go with club colours. Long enough to be decent but not too hot

Worst Points: Leg elastic a bit tight - though not noticeable when running. Crotch a bit baggy when standing still - if I’d tried them on in a shop I might not have bought them because of that - ok if you wear a long top to hide it. Brooks label peeling off after 2 wearings and 1 cool wash.

Other Comments:

None.
