Product description
What these bottoms are for
EKLENTSON’s men’s tracksuit bottoms are the sort of everyday training layer that people end up wearing more than they expect: a loose, open-bottom style jogging pant with a lightweight mesh build. The idea is fairly straightforward—stay comfortable when you’re moving, and keep your essentials secure—without feeling weighed down.
On paper, the mix of breathable mesh and quick-drying polyester suggests they’re aimed at sessions where airflow matters, like running, gym workouts, or even casual wear when it’s warmer. The loose fit also helps if you prefer movement over a close, body-hugging feel. That said, mesh isn’t everyone’s favourite fabric for cooler weather, so it’s worth thinking about when you’ll actually wear them.
Key takeaways
If you want lightweight, breathable jogging bottoms with zip pockets, these cover the basics well. The elasticated waistband with an external drawcord gives you a way to tune the fit rather than relying on stretch alone. And with both side pockets zip-closed, there’s less worry about a phone shifting around during exercise.
Where they sit in the market is more “practical activewear” than “serious performance kit”. That’s not a criticism—just a useful expectation. You’ll likely get the most value if you treat them as training bottoms and off-duty athleisure rather than something engineered to handle very heavy, long-duration use.
It’s also open-bottom (with legs that don’t taper into a tight cuff), which can be great for comfort and airflow. But it can feel less “snug” if you’re the type who likes trainers to be fully wrapped or who hates any looseness at the ankles.
What you’ll notice in use
The mesh outer is designed to feel airy and breathable, which can make a difference on runs and workouts where you start to warm up. It’s also quick-drying on the manufacturer’s description, so you’re less likely to be stuck in damp clothing after a sweatier session.
The zip pockets are genuinely the most “adult” feature here. During training—think a jog where your phone tends to bounce in a non-secure pocket—zip closures help reduce the chances of it falling out or working itself loose. It’s a small thing, but it often separates decent bottoms from ones you end up avoiding.
For a simple example, imagine you’re heading out for a gym session: you can keep your mobile in a zip pocket, adjust the drawcord at the waist for comfort, then focus on your workout without constantly checking whether your belongings have shifted.
Where they might fall short
Mesh is breathable, but that also means you may find them less suitable if you want coverage in cooler conditions. If your training is mainly in the early mornings or in colder UK weather, you might prefer thicker track pants or something less perforated.
Another limitation to consider is the open-bottom silhouette. While it’s comfortable and airy, some people simply don’t like how it looks or feels compared with tighter ankle cuffs. If you’re very particular about that “clean, tailored” track pant shape, these may end up feeling a bit more relaxed than you hoped.
Who it suits (and who should skip)
It makes sense if you want lightweight tracksuit bottoms for jogging, gym sessions, or warm-weather training, and you’re picky about pocket security. The combination of mesh and zip pockets is particularly useful if you carry your phone often and don’t want it flapping around.
It may not suit you if you’re looking for thick, insulating sweat pants or you want a close, streamlined fit. Likewise, if you prefer ankle cuffs that grip your trainers, the open-bottom style could feel like the wrong balance.

Mini FAQ
How breathable are they?
They’re built with a mesh design, so they’re intended to feel more breathable during exercise. If you mainly train in cooler weather, you may want something less airy.
Are the pockets secure enough for a phone?
Both side pockets have zips, which is exactly the kind of feature you want if you’re worried about a phone slipping during movement.
Do they come with an adjustable waist?
Yes—there’s an elasticated waistband plus an external drawcord, so you can fine-tune the fit.
What’s the overall fit like?
The description points to a loose fit, which prioritises comfort and movement. If you prefer a tight, tailored feel, you might find them too relaxed.
Should you wash them like a normal polyester item?
The input only states the fabric is 100% polyester, so you’ll want to follow the care instructions on the label in the pack rather than guessing.
Final verdict
Buying verdict: pick EKLENTSON’s mesh tracksuit bottoms if you want breathable, quick-drying-style jogging sweat pants with zip pockets and an adjustable waist for day-to-day training and off-duty wear.
Skip them if you need insulating thickness for colder sessions, or if you dislike the open-bottom look and prefer a more snug ankle fit. For the right use—warm-weather workouts and phone-in-pocket convenience—they look like a sensible, practical choice.
