Two men have been fined close to $600 each after they were caught running naked down a Brisbane street in the early hours of the morning.

A third man running with the two managed to get away.

A Queensland Police Service (QPS) spokesman said the men were caught in Kuraby at 2:40am.

They were then taken back to a local party to retrieve their clothing.

The men, a 20-year-old man from Upper Kedron and a 19-year-old from Boronia Heights, were each fined $235 for wilful exposure and a further $353 for obstructing police.

The QPS Facebook page took a cheeky jab at the two men's situation this morning, speculating they had either lost badly at cards or pool before going for their run.
