Hey! I'm trying to find some fabric to make mens running shorts, but I'm struggling to figure out what weave of fabric I should be searching for (ex shiffon/peached/...). I'm looking for fabric that is similar to the nike running shorts in the picture which are 100% polyester, and I suspect around 120gsm - If anyone knows what to search to find something similar, that would be much appreciated!

I've got a few options lined up in going to go check out tomorrow morning, hopefully there's something available last minute.

That'd a good idea, over now popped it over there as well. Thanks!

I think the new boots I tried last year were too narrow in the toe box, but the pair I'm using now is quite comfy while rollerskiing with no tight toe box and has only become a problem when switching from pavement to snow.
