  • Great gym or beach shorts
Absolutely on point as usual! These are exactly what my husband was looking for. The length is perfect. Martial is soft and breathable. The color and patterns were as described. Pockets are deep enough for his phone at the gym without it falling out. Material is light and made of quality fabric. The look is great! ... show more

  • Thin material, but fits well.
Special Size: Standard Size: Large Color: Navy - C Patch Logo
I ordered the large size which fits my 6 foot, 193 lb frame very well. They are made from thinner nylon material but feel good and do the job. Very lightweight and keeps me cool while working out in the gym. I do like the deep pockets for storing my phone and car keys. I'd definitely recommend this product if you need gym shorts. ... show more

  • Awesome Shorts! They Meet the Three "Must-Haves": Lightweight, Good Pockets, and Knee-Length
Special Size: Standard Size: Large Color: Navy - C Patch Logo
When looking for athletic shorts I have three basic requirements: 1- they must be lightweight, 2- they must have pockets, and 3- they must settle near my knees. These shorts meet all of them perfectly! Here are the highlights: LIGHTWEIGHT: I primarily use these shorts for running, so a lightweight fabric is a must. This has become especially important to me since, what with COVID19-related-closures, I can't go to my gym anymore and need to run outside in the summer heat. These shorts ended up being just what I needed. They're comprised of two mesh layers placed on top of each other and are incredibly breathable. POCKETS: I also sometimes use my exercise shorts as pajama bottoms or to just lounge around the house, so having pockets is also a must! The pockets in these pants are deep and well-padded, with more than enough space to hold my phone, headphones, wallet, and/or anything else I need. KNEE-LENGTH: While I love running, I've never gotten used to "runners' shorts" that come up too far above my knees. I was a little worried that these shorts would be long enough for me (I'm 6'3"), but they ended up being the perfect length! They reach my knees perfectly (see picture) and look/feel comfortable whether I'm standing up or sitting down. All in all, I couldn't be more pleased with these shorts and will purchase more when I need them. Enjoy! ... show more

  • Budget Friendly and comfortable!
Special Size: Standard Size: X-Large Color: Athletic Gray - C Patch Logo
Great deal, completely satisfied, and I will buy these again. I actually ordered three of these. I usually buy the Nike brand but decided to give these a try because they’re much cheaper. Definitely beats paying $30.00-$40.00 for the Nike branded shorts. They’re comfortable, light weight and don’t look bad either. Good for wearing around the house, running to the store, work, and anywhere else you’re comfortable wearing athletic shorts. The only negative that is a possibility is they will wear out faster than my Nike shorts, but I’m just assuming. Even if they do wear out faster I can still buy at least three pairs of these for the price of one pair of Nike shorts. Also I got fooled by the image. I thought one pair I ordered was white, but turned out to be grey. I made the mistake of not reading the item description, it does indeed say grey. Thought the order picker made a mistake, but it was my mistake. They seem to run a little bigger compared to the same size Nike shorts. I bought a XL assuming they’d be the same size, I think I could have ordered a large and they would fit perfect. Should have ordered according to their sizing chart. ... show more

  • Do better, Champion-elastic sucks
Special Size: Big & Tall Size: Large Tall Color: Athletic Gray - C Patch Logo
Nice and big, i am 6’3” and they go below my knees (as desired). Material is good. I took off stars for the waist, i am skinny (6’3” , 220lb) and bought the large tall (which seems right for a 36” waist)…the elastic should be better, they tend to start jailing (falling off of my butt) if i put anything of significant weight in my pocket—which means I have to tighten the drawcord more than desired. This problem is common in Champion shorts (and yet I keep buying them…shrug). Do better Champion ... show more
