  • Comfortable Gym Shorts With Great Value for Everyday Use
Size: Large Color: Black
These shorts ended up being a really solid purchase for workouts and casual wear. The material is lightweight, breathable, and comfortable during training sessions, especially for basketball, gym workouts, or just lounging around. They have a loose fit without feeling overly baggy, which makes movement easy. The moisture-wicking fabric works well and helps keep sweat from feeling heavy during longer workouts. I also like that the shorts are simple and versatile enough to match with almost anything. For the price, the quality honestly feels better than expected. After multiple washes, the fabric still held up nicely with no major shrinking or fading. Definitely a good budget-friendly alternative to more expensive athletic brands. Pros: * Lightweight and breathable * Comfortable loose fit * Good for workouts or casual wear * Moisture-wicking material works well * Great value for the price Cons: * Material is thinner than premium sports brands * Pockets could be slightly deeper Overall, these are reliable and comfortable athletic shorts that perform well without costing a lot. ... show more

  • Amazing Shorts!!!!!
Size: X-Large Color: Black
These shorts are amazing! I have always had sensitive skin and worn all natural cotton fabrics. Recently I began picking up strong fragrances on my cotton clothes that would not wash out when getting physical therapy. Looking for a material that does not readily absorb odors I opted for these shirts and shorts. All I can say is, wow! 1. They are so light and comfortable it's almost like wearing nothing. 2. They are cool to wear. I am in a hot and muggy climate and felt immeasurably cooler going out in these than if I'd worn my cotton shirt and shorts. 3. They are stretchy so they don't choke you when sitting or squatting. 4. It lays/hangs really nice when it's on. The waist band is not choking tight like other shorts and it has nice long drawstrings. 5. The colors are great. I got the black this time, but plan to get other colors. 6. They washed with ease and, yay, they can be tumble dried. 7. There are two pockets that are nice and deep that you'd barely know are there... not bulky. 8. The prices is good too! I'll be buying more! Great for the gym, physical therapy, walking, running errands, and casual wear. ... show more

  • The quality has changed
Size: Medium Color: Burgundy/Navy
The first pair I ordered several years ago fit me great. The waistbands felt snug without having to tie the drawstrings, even carrying my wallet and keys in each pocket. The material felt comfortable, is breathable, dries easily, and doesn't inhibit movement. I liked them a lot, so I ordered a second pair on sale on Prime Day. Unfortunately, something changed in the manufacturing process. My new pair doesn't fit as well although I ordered the same size as the previous pair. The waistbands fit much more loosely and my waistline hasn't shrunken. The drawstrings definitely need to be tied even if nothing is in the pockets. Also, the material snags more easily. I'm not as happy with this new pair, but I'd recommend them if you can get them at a deep discount. ... show more

  • Great Shorts
Size: Small Color: Black/Olive
Great price, comfortable! The fabric is not see-through and seems heavy enough not to snag to easily like many sport shorts.

  • Yes— buy it.
Size: Small Color: Black/Green Geo Camo
We are so happy with these! We followed the size guide, which recommended a Small for my son who is about 5 feet tall with a 30-inch waist, and they fit him perfectly. The length sits just below the knees and looks really good on him. The material feels comfortable and lightweight, perfect for our weather! Great quality for the price. we’ll definitely be buying more! Pockets are a bonus! ... show more

  • Absolutely a good deal
Size: 4X-Large Big Color: Grey/Navy
Totally nice and comfy large and perfect for when you want something that’s just not clingy. I purposely got these for a post surgery so I won’t be irritated with clothes for $11 for two pairs. You cannot go wrong. They look very nice. They’re soft. They’re just thick enough you can wear them anywhere highly recommend. ... show more

  • A very comfy bargain. Very impressed!
Size: X-Large Color: Black/Grey
Excellent value. Nice fabric and details. Great pricing. For the purposes of this review, I'm going to compare these shorts Amazon Essentials (size XL) to my old faithful Reebok poly/mesh oversize L from 2018 (RN117927) That have lasted more than 8 years. My only recommendation is to recognize that today's "loose fit" is pretty true to size for today's shrinking sizes. Exactly one size smaller that the normally oversized American cuts from a decade ago. These are a very comfy bargain. Fabric type: and quality is almost identical. Amazon is slightly lighter in weight. Both soft poly/mesh with smooth interior. Sizing: Oversize Reebok L is identical to Amazon XL. Interior Waistband thickness: is 1/4" wider on the Reebok (Amazon 1/4" thinner) Not bad at all. Interior pockets: are identical. Interior drawstrings: Amazon are wider and contrasting color to find and tie more easily! Length and width: Identical. Price: Amazon Essentials are priced about 50% less for a nearly identical product. ... show more

  • These shorts are worth it for the price and then some.
Size: 6X-Large Big Color: Black
So i recently came across these shorts. As a bigger guy its hard to find shorts that not only fit well but are actually comfortable. These shorts fit perfectly and are without a doubt the most comfortable pair of shorts i own. These will be my new go to shorts for as long as you keep them in stock. The thickness of the material is just right and they are much more durable than most the clothing Walmart has. I don't have to worry about when they need to be worn because they are discreet and comfortable enough to be worn for almost any occasion with 2 pockets one on each side. What i like the most about them is when i am sitting down on a chair they dont rise up above my knees they go over the knees just enough to make it right. ... show more
