Running shorts with side zip pocket sewing pattern for men — Shorts 30

Shorts 30 is a digital sewing pattern for men from the Moldey catalog: running shorts with side zip pocket.
Short athletic shorts with an elasticized waistband, a zippered hip pocket for small items, and a wider back band with reflective details at the side.
Suplex or microfiber works best, for the light weight and quick drying that running calls for. Sew the zippered pocket onto a reinforced base so it does not stretch with use.
Recommended fabrics: Suplex, Microfiber and Spandex (lycra).
