When it comes to vacation, everyone needs time to get away. I know for myself, I always pack way too many clothes and items, only to end up wearing the same three things over and over again. The V2 Pants are designed for exactly that kind of trip.
With the pocket fabric sewn to the full leg length and featuring 20–40% vertical stretch, it adds more flexibility for squatting and everyday activities.
Today we planted trees to help offset our carbon emissions and continue building Northrune with better practices in mind. It’s one small step in creating products with a lower impact.
Is wearing our new mid-to-low rise shorts and plans to use them for hiking and traveling this spring and summer.
The Northrune Shorts feature a forward-positioned pocket design that improves hip mobility and overall comfort. The updated construction allows for greater stretch while creating a more natural, accessible pocket opening than traditional side-seam pockets.
Inner Pocket Fabric Update
Updated inner pocket fabric for Northrune pants to a more structured feel while keeping the same black color. New fabric is higher quality and reduces wrinkling after washing and drying.
We just donated $100 to the Arbor Day Foundation to help plant trees and offset our emissions.
With 5 pockets, double-knee fabric, and a comfortable cut, the Northrune Pant is perfect for traveling.
Back Pocket Upgrade
Back pocket sewing process updated to occur before removing extra slack in the pocket. Originally, there wasn’t much slack, but this change improves durability. Each pocket is now sewn before attaching the legs, with the left and right legs sewn together for added strength.

Yes, it’s actually True.
Poetry inspired by athletic pants.
I may be a bad poet, but my pants ROCK!!!!
Thanks, Northrune!
You make my arms jealous since they can’t wear the pants!
These are awesome! My “Go-To” pants for hanging out at home or running to the store. Easily holds everything I need and keeps me comfortable and stylish. Two big thumbs up!!!
Awesome pants from a rocking small business. I bought two pairs 8 months ago and came back to buy three more pairs! They have travelled with me from The North Shore of Lake Superior to the Tropics of Costa Rica. Easy to wear - secure pockets. Everything thought out as to where it needs to be. Customer service is second to none! Do yourself a favor and buy TWO pair on your initial order! You will be glad you did.
Great material for any activity with a nice, minimalistic look. Plus great customer service.
I bought these for my husband who is VERY picky about his shorts, he was hesitant at first but after trying them on and wearing them the first time he’s a huge fan!
Really like them! Probably going to get another in a different color. Ordered mine with belt loops.
The fit is perfect and the material is super comfortable.
The shorts are very comfortable and made with care, I havent had the chance to wear them outside yet since the weather is still chilly in MN. I tried them on and they fit perfect and I can't wait to wear them this Sunday since it's supposed to be nice.
I bought the Original Northrune Pants V2 in black (size L) and I’m really happy with them.
The material feels great—soft but still durable—and they have a nice stretch to them. The fit is just right for me. Super comfortable and seem to be warm enough for cooler temperatures during colder months.
One thing I really appreciated was the customer service. William was super responsive throughout the whole process and kept me updated on the status of my order, which made everything feel smooth and reliable.
I just recently used the repair program because a stitch was coming loose on one of my cargo pockets and I just mailed my pants in and they repaired it in no time! Now my pants are as good as new and ready for some more adventures! Thanks!
These shorts are great, good length and fit (slightly baggy in a good way), great fabric. Can’t wait to wear these at camp and for workouts !!
Bought for a friend and this is there review “simple & comfortable I love it!”
The Northrune Pants are very comfortable.
Exited to hike in these pants when I head to the mountains this April
I sent a comment suggesting they offer TALL versions of their pants, and William reached out out to let me know they would be happy to do a custom pair. My husband is 6’5 so it’s hard to find pants long enough. We were very happy with the 38 inch inseams! Nice light fabric for workouts. I would highly recommend this Minnesota company!
