  • Affordable and Comfortable
Size: X-Large Color: Set L
For what they cost, I cannot possibly complain about the quality of these pants. They are very breathable and comfortable to wear when going to the gym, or when hanging out at home. 5 pairs was enough for me to have gym shorts for each day I go to the gym and I haven't had a single complaint about these shorts. The material seems like it might wear down/rip at some point within the next 2 years if I had to guess but for the price I can't really complain. ... show more

  • Perfect Blend of Comfort and Functionality - Men's Mesh Athletic Performance Gym Shorts Review
Size: 3X-Large Color: Set Q
I recently purchased the Real Essentials 5 Pack: Men's Mesh Athletic Performance Gym Shorts with Pockets, and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. These shorts have quickly become my go-to choice for workouts and daily activities. First and foremost, the comfort level of these shorts is unparalleled. The mesh fabric is lightweight and breathable, ensuring that I stay cool and comfortable even during intense workouts. The airy feel of the material is perfect for hot summer days and high-intensity exercises. The fit is spot on. I ordered my usual size, and the shorts fit me perfectly, providing a comfortable and non-restrictive feel. The elastic waistband offers a secure yet flexible fit, allowing for a full range of motion during exercises. The addition of pockets is a game-changer. I love having the convenience of pockets to hold my essentials, such as my phone and keys, during my gym sessions. It eliminates the need for carrying a separate bag, streamlining my workouts and making them more enjoyable. The 5-pack option is fantastic value for money. I now have a variety of colors to choose from, and each pair is equally comfortable and well-made. The quality of the construction is evident, and I can tell that these shorts are built to withstand frequent use. Moreover, these shorts are not only great for the gym but also perfect for various activities and casual wear. Whether I'm running errands, playing sports, or simply lounging at home, these shorts are my reliable choice. Cleaning and maintaining these shorts is a breeze. They wash well, and the color and shape remain intact even after multiple washes. In conclusion, the Real Essentials Men's Mesh Athletic Performance Gym Shorts with Pockets are a must-have for any active individual. Their comfort, perfect fit, and functional design make them an excellent choice for workouts and daily wear. With the added bonus of pockets and the value of the 5-pack, this purchase has exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend these gym shorts to anyone in need of comfortable and versatile activewear. I am thrilled with my purchase and will definitely be buying more from Real Essentials in the future! ... show more

  • Great for what you pay but they aren't the BEST quality.... but that's okay.
Size: XX-Large Color: Set F
I have two sets of these shorts, one I purchased in august of 2020 and one in august 2021. Clearly I went back to buy another set a year later so I must like them, and I do. They are priced INCREDIBLY well. At the time of the first purchase, I had just started playing sports again and needed lightweight shorts to cut and move in. These are DEFINITELY those shorts. They breath very well, they're comfortable enough that now I not only work out in them, I lounge around the house in them and go to sleep in them as well. They've held up pretty well to washing. I wash them on hot with powdered detergent and oxiclean powder and rinse them twice and then dry them on medium heat. They've probably gone through at least 100 washes thus far and I'm still wearing them. Yes, some of the seams have loose thread, yes some of them start to come off over time but they're $6 a short and none of them have unraveled to the point that there are any holes or they are unwearable, it's just something you would see when you look at the inner part of the waistband. The ONE weakness of these shorts is the pockets. I've had several that have started developing holes in the side seams of the pockets. Now it only started happening a year+ later and they've been beat up and washed many times so that's not quite so bad, but still it'll happen. I suspect this is more to do with how big and heavy phones are nowadays since it's always on my right pocket (where my phone goes) and started pretty much after I upgraded from an iphone 7 to an iphone 13 pro. But two years and 100+ aggressive washings later, only 3 out of 10 shorts have pocket holes and only one has a hole big enough that I'm scared to put my phone in the pocket. These are fantastic shorts and they could easily charge double. I plan to replace some of the original ones with a new set even now. ... show more

  • My slim 14-year-old approves
Size: Small Color: Set K
Purchased: Small Men’s Size of wearer: 5’6”; 116 lbs. My slim 14-year-old asked for new shorts recently. He likes loose, simple designs with 2 pockets. These polyester shorts fit the bill. He likes the patterned design on the side, with each pair having a different color matching the short color. They fall right below his knee-cap. He says he loves how stretchy the elastic waist-band feels and that they're "really comfortable." Nice fit, great price for five pairs. ... show more

  • Extremely thin
I didn’t expect much because it was 5 shorts for 35 dollars. I’ve purchased the Amazon essentials line before and never had an issue. These shorts are so thin you can see through them. The stitching is defective.I don’t think they’ll make it more the 3 washes before unraveling. I’m returning them. I can’t wear them to work due to the thinness. ... show more

  • SO COMFORTABLE!
Size: Large Color: Set J
These are great shorts to wear to the gym or just the lounge around the house. Very soft and comfortable material, come down to about your knees, and look pretty sharp. For five pairs this is an absolute bargain.

  • Ok…but…
Size: 3X-Large Color: Set F
You get what you pay for. These shorts are comfy and cheap. With that said, the stitching is already falling out…I give them about another couple months before they completely fall apart. I wear these around the house so overall they meet my needs.
