Product Insights

The I.FIV5 Perforated Stretch Short (4" inseam, $69 CAD) is a performance running short that combines permanent odor control via Polygiene (tested for 4–5 days of daily wear without odor when aired out) with breathability from perforations, side vents, and a short inseam that accelerates cooling and evaporation. It prevents chafing through a built-in microfibre brief and anchored hem, while the 4" length reduces leg swing weight and ensures stride freedom. Made from 100% recycled polyester that performs within 2–3% of virgin in wicking and durability, it offers environmental benefits (45–85% less energy) without sacrificing quality. The tradeoff: the built-in liner lacks a phone pocket, so storage relies on front zippered pockets. Care requires cold wash and air drying. At over 30% less than Tracksmith Twilight Shorts with the same Polygiene, this Simons-exclusive, Canada-designed piece delivers premium functionality and value.

Verified claims

Odor control
Silver chloride is permanently bonded to the fabric and controls odor-causing bacteria for the life of the garment.
Freshness
Polygiene-treated polyester has lasted four to five days of daily wear or up to four sweaty runs (5.5+ total hours) before detectable odor, especially when aired out between uses.
Safety
Polygiene is certified skin-safe by Oeko-Tex and bluesign and does not disrupt skin microbiome.
Care
Wash inside out in cold water with mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble dry low or air dry; high heat may reduce the Polygiene treatment's effectiveness.
Running efficiency
4-inch inseam reduces leg swing weight and ensures stride freedom.
Cooling
4-inch inseam boosts cooling via direct skin airflow.
Hem stability
4-inch inseam anchors hem on thigh, preventing ride-up and chafing.
Breathability
Perforations, side vents, and 4-inch inseam accelerate sweat evaporation and heat release.
Recycled performance
100% recycled polyester performs within 2-3% of virgin in wicking, dry time, and breathability.
Chafe prevention
Built-in microfibre brief and perforated shell prevent chafing by removing underwear seams, wicking moisture, and anchoring the hem.
Odour control
Polygiene permanently suppresses odour, stays effective for garment lifespan.
Storage
Built-in liner has no phone pocket; front zippered pockets are the intended phone storage.
Environmental footprint
Recycled polyester from bottles uses 45–85% less energy than virgin.
Performance parity
Recycled polyester wicks, dries, and breathes within 2–3% of virgin polyester, and it retains more breaking force after aging.
Value
At $69 CAD, this short undercuts Tracksmith Twilight Shorts with the same Polygiene by over 30%.
Design
4-inch inseam, built-in liner, zippered pockets, and side vents deliver premium running short functionality.
Brand story
Exclusive Simons brand: designed in Canada, more features per dollar than Nike/UA.
Color accuracy
The Emerald/Kelly Green is expected to read as a bright, true emerald green rather than dark forest green, though natural-light shade can vary.
Wash frequency
Between runs, rinsing or airing out the shorts can often replace a full wash, saving wear on the garment.
