Built-in boxer brief liner with ultra-stretchy and soft Nuyarn merino wool. There's the perfect amount of room for the boys to breathe while still keeping everything in place. And elastic in leg holes stop the liner from riding up.

6.5" Inseam — Everyday versatility:
This is our original DREAM Shorts length and the one I wear most often. These shorts are perfect for everyday runs, gym sessions, the golf course, yoga, and just about everything in between. They strike the ultimate balance between performance and everyday style — built to move, but polished enough to wear in any setting.
5" Inseam — Performance first:
After receiving countless requests, we couldn't be more excited to launch our 5" inseam to enable peak performance. The 5" inseam is perfect for marathons, ultras, and higher-intensity workouts when you want minimal fabric and maximum freedom of movement. Since these shorts show off more leg, they can also make you look taller.

Feel up to 30X Less Sweaty
Merino wool can absorb and release up to 30x more sweat vapor than synthetics, while staying dry against your skin. This is a game-changer in keeping you dry, temperature-regulated, and comfortable.
Better for Your Boys
The liners in conventional workout shorts are often treated with PFAS (forever chemicals) to help artificially wick moisture. These same PFAS have been linked to lower testosterone, infertility, and cancer. Our Nuyarn® merino wool liner naturally wicks moisture and is completely free of these toxic chemicals. Our lightweight outer shell is also PFAS-free and non-toxic, made from OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 polyester and spandex.
We designed these shorts to maximize both health and performance. Because you shouldn't have to compromise between protecting your boys and hitting your PR.
Cools When You’re Hot, Warms When You’re Cold
Merino wool was evolved by desert sheep that thrived in extreme conditions, from scorching 100-degree summers to freezing 0-degree winters. This advanced biology keeps you perfectly temperature-regulated through your workouts.
Do Less Laundry, Travel Lighter
Astronauts wear the same merino wool clothes for weeks because of its space-saving, antibacterial properties. When you’re traveling with the DREAM shorts, you can pack lighter, check less luggage, and do less laundry.
Enhancing Merino Wool
Avala's liner uses Nuyarn®: The World's First Performance Wool. Compared to conventional merino wool fabrics, Avala's liner is:
• 8.8x More Durable
• 5x Faster at Drying Sweat
• 85% More Elastic
• 35% More Thermoregulating

Drying. Regulating. Eco-friendly. Antibacterial. Merino.
Very comfortable, easy to clean, 4 pockets (2 with zippers 🎉)
My son LOVES these shorts. I originally got him a Medium, but they were a little snug (big build, 6’3” and 215 pounds) so we ended up trying the XL’s. They give him plenty of room to move and he hasn’t stopped telling me how comfortable they are! He typically wears other nice brands of athleisure shorts and these have become his new go-to. Exchanging for a different size was a breeze, Julian was amazing and so thoughtful, we are excited to continue to support this brand and try all of their products!!
Perfect feel wish the outer shell was a little bigger

Got these shorts in the blue and black as a gift for my boyfriend and he basically hasn’t taken them off since. He loves them and says they are the comfiest shorts he’s worn. Worth the price!
