Introducing: Packer System

News

Running in the great outdoors is as much about adapting to nature’s unpredictability as it is about endurance. Whether you’re running through thick bushes, torrential rain, or on a freakishly hot day, having the right gear can make or break your experience.

A great pair of trail-running shorts isn’t just about comfort—it’s about durability, storage, and weather adaptability. That’s where the SYSUM Packer Trail Shorts hit the mark.

These shorts are the first in our Packer System range. We have some cosy winter leggings in the works as well.

Why Versatility Matters

Trail running demands gear that performs across diverse environments and keeps you prepared for anything the trail throws your way.

The Packer Trail Shorts are designed with a focus on versatility. Featuring lightweight durability and functional storage, these shorts are built to adapt. The Men’s 4" and Women's 3" offer freedom of movement without sacrificing support or practicality.

High-Performance Fabric & Construction

Long-distance runs push your gear to its limits, which is why fabric choice is key. The Packer Trail Shorts are constructed from an ultra-light, durable Cordura® Nylon that resists wear while remaining highly breathable. Helping regulate body temperature on hot days and ensuring minimal chafing during intense efforts.

They’re quick-drying, making them ideal for wet weather and river crossings, while the 4-way stretch-woven design provides unrestricted movement. Bonded seams, laser cut hems and an 8cm gusset prevent irritation, and the fabric’s durability ensures they’ll endure countless adventures. We want your products to last longer so you buy less and help protect our natural world.

The Packer System

The Packer system features multiple purpose-built pockets to carry everything you need for long days on the trail:

  • Phone Pocket: Positioned snugly against the waistband to reduce bounce, keeping your phone secure.
  • Key Pocket: A dedicated bounce-free pocket to protect your keys and prevent scratches on your phone.
  • Cargo Pocket: A large, open-top pocket designed for quick access to an extra layer or accessories like gloves or gels.
  • Side Pockets with Flaps: Perfect for nutrition storage—stuff them with gels, snacks, or even gummy bears for that mid-run energy boost.

This thoughtful pocket configuration keeps everything organised, secure, and easily accessable so you can focus on your run without distractions.

Whether you’re chasing new summits or just getting away from the kids for a bit, the SYSUM Packer Trail Shorts will be your new running companion.
