Rab says:

Lightweight, versatile, and designed to take your running to higher altitudes, the Talus Active Shorts are made from a fast drying, protective Matrix™ fabric with a fluorocarbon-free DWR finish. These 4-inch running shorts have a lightweight liner short made with Motiv™ Aero, a mesh structured fabric designed to optimise breathability. They have a comfortable, ¾ elasticated, deep waist band with a drawcord to adjust the fit and an integrated back pocket with lock down slider, with space for a phone, gels, or sun cream.

Perfect for hill and mountain running and everyday outdoor adventure, the Talus Active Short offers complete mobility for tackling root twisted trails and rocky ridgelines.

Our Verdict

The Talus Active are a nice stripped down running short that are very comfortable and offer a high level of flexibility and movement which is exactly what you need whether on a local run or up high on the trails. 

The Matrix fabric also has a good level of water resistance which can be kept up with regular reproofing, they also have a high level of breathability so I found no issues with excess perspiration or rubbing. 

The back pocket was big enough to get smaller iPhone in but those with large phones may find it not quite big enough, but there is plenty of room for gels etc…
