  • My favorite all-around shorts
Color: Navy Size: Medium
These shorts are absolutely fantastic for the activities I primarily engage in: 1) hiking/backpacking, 2) climbing/bouldering, 3) work outs, and 4) weekends around the house. I've spent quite a bit of time trying to find shorts that don't hang about my knees like man capris, yet aren't 1970 NBA short. Despite the 5" rating on these, they aren't as short as what you might be expecting. I'm 5'10 and they hit just above my knees. They're made of a synthetic fabric that isn't at all uncomfortable, is lightweight, and dries fast. I like the liner because I can go commando, swimming, etc. The liner is a non-issue when I wear boxer briefs. It's nice on a backpacking trip or hike to be able to jump into a creek or lake for a dip and have them dry quickly. They have a drawstring in the elastic waistband which I don't usually need to tie, but if I go swimming I do. The three pockets are fantastic. The front pockets are great because they are deep enough for a phone, wallet, keys, etc. On a lot of shorts in this price range you get pockets that aren't deep enough to hold a pea, much less something valuable. The zippered pocket on the back is really nice when you want to be extra sure to secure something and is also big enough for a phone or slim wallet. If these shorts have a weakness at this price point, I'm not sure what it is. I've experienced no issues with fit, quality, or durability. They're comfortable. I now own three pairs and wish I had more. ... show more

  • Comfort and a nice fit
Color: Ashleigh Blue Size: Medium
Great shorts. The material is light weight, there's an inner lining and when working out or running there is no binding at all. I'm 5'7", 150 lbs, with a 31" waist and these fit very well (I wear a medium). They have 2 side pockets (deep enough to hold 2 tennis balls or pickleball balls (each pocket)) and a zippered center rear pocket for a key or credit card or ID. And oh yeah, they are very comfortable. Yes I recommend these and I do plan to buy another pair or two during the next Prime Days. If this review sounds familiar, it is, I wrote the same review for the Spowind shorts I purchased. Similar shorts, both well constructed. ... show more

  • light weight and very comfortable
Color: Navy Size: Large
While searching for running shorts, than came up on Amazon's recommended. To me, brand name is not important as long as it have side pockets, an extra zipper pocket and quality/comfortable. Of course within budget. After researching on this brand/company, it is a fairly new company that manufacturers sports wear based out of California. I decided to give this a try. Here is my break down Fit - as expected, I am 5'9, 190lbs and waist 36. Size large was just right with enough room to spare where it is not too baggy/loose Quality - outside fabric is very soft to the touch even when out running and sweating. Does not stick to skin at all. It is thin but feels strong. If it wasnt for the inside mesh brief, I can easily forget i was wearing this. Speaking of inside mesh brief, mine came in white (same was drawcord) while my shorts are navy blue. It can't be seems on the outside, but maybe it would be better if it came in matching color? The brief did not ride up or feel uncomfortable in my long run. Side pocket - big enough and fairly deep enough to fit large phone (6.5") but seems like it stuff can fall out. Extra zip pocket - located in center back of pants, it is big enough to fix keys, wallet/cash and energy gel packs, BUT doest not fit my phone. If you have a large phone like mine, dont bother trying to fit it in. The opening alone is not big enough. 5" inseam was just the right length for me. It is around 2 inches up from knee, which provided good flexibility and not drag when running I did two wash so far and wore this once for a 10 mile run. So far it held up, but can't say for the printed reflected brand name on lower left thigh. It seems to be printed on and might fall/wear out after more washed. Overall satisfy but only time will tell if the stitching and quality hold up after more usage ... show more

  • Great running shorts
Color: Black-2pack Size: Large
I probably have 7 pairs of these and they are great for the price. Light weight, pockets including a rear pocket. Mesh liner. Only complaint is that the zippers tend to get stuck over time. But I probably get over a hundred runs/washes on a pair before having issues so they are still my go to running short. ... show more

  • Great shorts, but not quick drying.
These shorts are very comfortable and appear to be well made. An example of their attention to providing a top notch product is the drawstring. In some shorts, the manufacturer uses a thin material that I find difficult to tie. The Baleaf short has a very good elastic waistband and a substantial drawstring. The material of the short is lightweight and there is an interior brief that is a mesh material. The only thing that could be considered a negative in my opinion may be durability. The lightness of the material may be it's downfall, but only time will tell. All the seams look very well sewn. When you throw in the price when compared to Nike, New Balance, and other name brands, Baleaf is a bargain. I am certainly buying again. UPDATE: I wore these shorts when I ran my first half marathon. It was a course along the coast, it was warm and the humidity was elevated. I was also wearing a Baleaf shirt. I was sweating. At the end of the race the shorts and shirt were soaking wet. They did not feel clammy like cotton, but still very wet. Once I got back to my hotel I hung the items up so they would dry and not be a wet mess in my luggage. The next day when I went to pack, they were stll damp. They are NOT quick dry. Comfortable, but not quick drying. ... show more
