A Decade-Long Legacy in Motion

The Evolution Continues: From Baggies to ShortsX

Back in the early 2010s, parkour practitioners lived in sweatpants. Long, comfy, and flowy—perfect for movement, but not for the rising heat of summer. While our legendary Baggy Motion Pants were changing the game with their custom cut and strategic seam placement, something was missing from the traceur’s wardrobe—something shorter, lighter, but just as powerful.

At SKOCHY, we saw a gap—and we jumped.

Shorts X

Born from Movement, Built for Freedom

Just as we reinvented comfort with our Baggy Motion Pants, we weren’t about to settle for ordinary shorts. We wanted to create the shorts for people in motion. So, we took that same revolutionary blueprint—the one that moved the main seam away from vulnerable areas and introduced that substantial piece of fabric between the legs—and translated it into something that could handle the summer heat without sacrificing an inch of movement freedom. Thus, ShortsX was born! Just ready for the summer of 2015.

From the start, we stuck to what mattered most: Flexibility. Durability. Comfort. We kept that same motion-friendly crotch construction that made our Baggies famous—no restrictions, no excuses. We sourced a lightweight but ultra-durable cotton-poly mix fabric that could take a beating during your hardest parkour training but still feel good on the skin.

Slow Fashion: Movement That Lasts

In a world of disposable fashion and seasonal trends, SKOCHY stands firmly against the current. Our commitment to slow fashion isn’t just talk—it’s woven into every stitch of our ShortsX. Producing the same high-quality model for a decade isn’t just about brand consistency; it’s about sustainability and conscious consumption. When a product is designed right the first time, built to last, and remains relevant year after year, it reduces waste and environmental impact. Your ShortsX aren’t meant to be replaced every season—they’re built to grow with you, gain character with each jump, and tell a longer story. This is what true sustainability looks like in motion: creating gear that can’t separate from you until the textile itself dissolves. Just like our Baggy Motion Pants, ShortsX represents our first step—or should we say jump—toward a more sustainable approach to parkour clothing, and clothing in general. 

A decade long legacy - ShortsX

 

Engineered for the Discipline

Remember that discreet hidden pocket we put in the Baggies? Of course the ShortsX got zipped pockets too—because losing your phone during a flow or big jump sucks. A tough, adjustable string? For the fit, for the style, and for the hold during those explosive movements. Decorative X-shaped seams on the side? A subtle nod to design, identity, and now—ten years of legacy. And of course, the SKOCHY logo, sitting proudly on the left side, just beside the X.

The beauty lies in the balance: Always ready to move or chilling in a split.

 

A Decade-Proven Design

What started as an idea turned into a decade-long movement. Just like their longer siblings, ShortsX became your go-to. From rooftops to gym floors, summer jams to everyday training—we’ve seen them everywhere. They’ve become essential gear for traceurs and freerunners worldwide, enabling the perfect balance of style and functionality in warmer and indoor conditions.

As the longest-running parkour shorts in the market, ShortsX has withstood the test of time—and countless impacts. While other brands have come and gone, we’ve maintained our commitment to quality and performance. Ten years strong and we’re not stopping now.

Your feedback through the years? It’s been loud and clear:

“They are the one pair of shorts I would take if the world ended. Excellent and stylish.” 

“Perfect shorts for parkour. Zero restriction, and pockets are right placed.” 

“I have always liked Skochy shorts. They are comfortable, great for motion, durable, and look good. I didn’t think they could get much better, but the recent version have managed to do so.”

Beyond being mere apparel, ShortsX have become collectibles, each pair telling a story of a jump or a moment of pure parkour exhilaration.

Thank you for every stride, every stick, every flow, and every order. Here’s to 10 years of ShortsX—the summer companion to our legendary Baggies—and to the next decade of motion.
