Product Insights
I.FIV5's Piped Stretch Short (4.5" inseam) delivers permanent Polygiene odor control that lasts the garment's lifetime, eliminating bacteria and reducing laundry frequency, which lowers environmental footprint by a third. The linerless, relaxed cut allows pairing with any underwear or compression layer for chafe-free comfort, while the 20-gram distal fabric mass reduction improves running economy. At $59 CAD, it bundles recycled polyester and Polygiene—a feature typically found in premium outdoor brands—but slit pockets (6 inches deep) may not secure larger phones.
