2in Split Shorts

Sri Chinmoy

Made in Europe.

This limited-edition capsule was designed in collaboration with the Sri Chinmoy Centre, and features original artwork by both Sri Chinmoy and Filip Pagowski.

The Indian mystic and spiritual teacher Sri Chinmoy spent 20 years studying at the Sri Aurobindo ashram in Pondicherry before moving to New York City in the mid 1960s, at the height of an influx of Eastern philosophy across the United States. He had been exposed to both meditation and athletics from childhood, and it is arguably his teachings at the intersection of these two practices that will have the most profound impact for generations to come.

For Chinmoy, a marathon was an opportunity and a method to overcome the confines of the ego tunnel. He saw the thresholds of human potential as the most fertile soil for growth and, perhaps, self-transcendence. His legacy is carried on by innumerable devotees worldwide, with various races bearing his name, including the longest footrace in the world, the 'Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race', held around a single half-mile city block in Jamaica, Queens every summer for 52 days.

Constructed from an ultralight two-way stretch shell and four-way stretch liner, the Vedana is our all-around running short. The custom-built liner provides friction-free support and moisture-wicking breathability, while deep side splits work to increase airflow and ease of motion. Essentials can be stowed in a rear hidden zip pocket, while extra layers can be carried in a larger pass-thru pocket designed to secure items against the lower back with minimal bounce.
