Product Insights
INNER SELF’s Dynamiq® Pocketed Bike Short (6.5”) is Montreal’s Refined Running Equipment: a 70/30 polyester-spandex midweight (230 GSM) short with compression akin to Lululemon’s Full-On Luxtreme, a no-front-seam design that reduces chafing and camel toe, and silicone grip details that keep legs and pockets secure during movement. Sold exclusively at i.FiV5 for $75 CAD (20% less than Lululemon’s Align 6), it offers side pockets that hold smartphones securely for walking and light jogging (though running requires testing), a reflective logo for low-light visibility, and a 5°C–25°C comfort range. The tradeoff: its midweight fabric and compression weave ensure opacity in black but lighter colors depend on fit, and the phone pocket is best verified for high-impact runs. Complete with matching bra, vest, tights, and cap.
