The North Face - Summit Series Pacesetter Run Shorts 3" Graphic Women's - Canal Blue

$149.99

The North Face Women's Summit Series Pacesetter 3" Graphic Run Shorts are a lightweight trail running short built for long days on your feet, whether that's a big training block or race day itself. Stretch-woven FlashDry-XD fabric moves with you and manages sweat on the go, while a built-in liner means you can skip extra layers underneath. Multiple pockets keep gels, a phone, or a soft flask secure and within reach, so you can focus on the terrain in front of you rather than what's bouncing around your waist.

  • Stretch-woven fabric moves with your stride instead of restricting it, with a water-repellent finish that shrugs off light drizzle
  • Built-in FlashDry brief liner means one less layer to think about on race morning
  • Multiple pocket options, including a secure zip pocket at the back, keep your essentials from bouncing around on rough terrain
  • Reflective logo detail helps you stay visible if your run runs long into low light
  • Added abrasion resistance from the FlashDry-XD fabric means it holds up to repeated pack rub and trail scuffs
  • Internal drawcord lets you dial in a snug, no-slip waist fit on the move
  • Front body: 20D x 30D 71 g/m² 89% recycled nylon, 11% elastane stretch woven with FlashDry-XD and non-PFC DWR finish
  • Waistband: 40D x 80D 104 g/m² 76% recycled nylon, 24% elastane stretch woven with FlashDry and non-PFC DWR finish
  • Brief liner: 150D 91 g/m² 58% recycled polyester, 42% polyester jersey knit with FlashDry
  • External pocketing: 105 g/m² 80% nylon, 20% elastane knit power mesh
  • Regular fit, 3" inseam
  • Power-mesh drop-in pockets at sides of waistband
  • Secure-zip pocket at centre back of waistband
  • Clamshell-opening pocket on left and right hips
  • Internal infinity-loop drawcord waistband
  • Reflective heat-transfer logo on right hem
  • Colour: Graphic Canal Blue
  • Trail runners wanting a lightweight, split-leg short for training runs and race day
  • Anyone who wants pockets built in rather than relying on a separate belt for gels, a phone, or a soft flask
  • Warm-weather sessions where a built-in liner and quick-dry fabric matter most
  • Less suited to: if you want a more fitted, compression-style short for race day or cooler conditions, the North Face Summit Series Ripida Tight Shorts are cut closer to the leg with silicone grippers to keep them locked in place

We stock the Summit Series Pacesetter 3" Shorts because The North Face has actually thought through what trail runners need in a short, rather than just cutting a road-running style shorter. The built-in liner and genuine pocket storage mean you're not reaching for a race vest just to carry a gel and your phone, and the stretch-woven FlashDry-XD fabric holds up to pack straps and trail scuffs better than a basic running short. It's part of the same Summit Series range as their VECTIV race shoes and FUTURELIGHT shells, so the fit and features are built around actually running hard on technical terrain, not just looking the part.
