  • Better than Champion
When I first ordered this I assumed it was going to cheap shorts that will do its jobs of basically keeping me somewhat cool but not at the scale of Champions or any other more popular shorts. And when I first got it the material felt kinda rough. To my absolute surprise, wearing it from the inside is insanely comfortable, and it kept me extremely cool even out in the blazing 99 degree sun. I actually feel chilly here and there with these shorts unlike my other mainstream shorts. These shorts also dry quickly and great for workouts so if Merryweather fleet is ever attacking you in the water, you will easily dry off in 10 seconds. The only downside is the medium pockets, great for most things but if you carry a large phone, large wallet, bunch of keys, and a lanyard with badge the pockets are indeed small and things will slip out. If driving, your keys (by itself in the pocket) and large phone may lip out partially. If you jump around a lot, your phone will fly away to Narnia never to be seen again (rip samsung galaxy 2023-2026. 5/5 would buy again ... show more

  • Questionable Longevity, but Amazing Value
Size: XX-Large Color: Set J
These shorts are quite comfortable and fit very nicely, however, you certainly get what you pay for in quality. After my first wear, two of the shorts had already begun unraveling slightly. However, a quick snip of the loose threads have held off that problem for the time being. In terms of appearance, they do really look nice in person! The designs are what you would expect from a far more expensive shorts brand, while only setting you back a small fraction of the price. In terms of sportswear, they're very stretchy and lightweight while not feeling overly cheap (despite my issues with the loose threads). For the price, I'm quite happy and can easily recommend these, as long as you're comfortable with these not lasting for many years. ... show more

Absolutely Thrilled! These Clothes Are a Game-Changer! I just received my latest clothing order and I am genuinely beyond impressed – these pieces are an absolute revelation! I honestly don't know where to start praising them, but suffice it to say, if you're on the fence about trying this brand or these particular items, jump right off and hit "add to cart" immediately. From the moment I unboxed them, the quality was immediately apparent. The fabric feels luxurious against the skin; it's soft, drapes beautifully, and has a substantial, high-end feel without being heavy. You can tell these aren't just trendy throwaway pieces; they're made to last and feel incredible doing so. But it's not just the feel – the fit is absolutely impeccable. I often struggle with finding clothes that truly complement my shape, but these are tailored to perfection. They hug in all the right places without being restrictive, and the cut is incredibly flattering. It’s that magical combination where you feel both incredibly comfortable and effortlessly stylish. I felt an instant boost of confidence the moment I put them on. The attention to detail is another huge win. The stitching is flawless, the buttons (where applicable) are securely fastened and thoughtfully chosen, and any subtle design elements are executed with precision. It’s these small touches that elevate a garment from good to truly exceptional. I've already put them through their paces (and a wash cycle!), and they've held up beautifully. No fading, no shrinking, no loss of shape – they look just as fantastic as they did fresh out of the package. This speaks volumes about the quality of materials and construction. Honestly, I haven't been this excited about new clothes in a long time. These aren't just purchases; they feel like an investment in my wardrobe and my comfort. If you're looking for pieces that blend superior comfort, sophisticated style, and undeniable quality, look no further. I'm already planning my next order! Five stars, wholeheartedly recommended! ... show more

  • Runs big at waist and drawstring doesn’t help
Size: Large Color: Set H
Purchased these shorts to use as regular everyday shorts. Quality wise these are ok. They do run large in the waist but with mediocre drawstring tied as tightly as possible they stay in place for the most part. I am a college student and work in my university admissions department as a student advisor (tour guide). I decided to wear these shorts to work. I had gotten dressed put the shorts on, tied the drawstring as tightly as i could and went off to work. I take my first group of perspective students and families on a tour of the campus, within 5 minutes i feel the leg openings of my boxers clinging to my shorts and minutes later the leg openings of my boxers start ridding up my legs. It became so uncomfortable that i couldn’t walk anymore and had stop and try to pull the leg openings of my boxers, It was literally mortifying as i am standing there exposing myself in my blue/green boxers. So after that i re tied the drawstring tightly and continued the tour. a short time later as we were walking my shorts started sliding down my waist. Next thing, I know my shorts are around my thighs. i quickly grab the shorts to prevent my shorts from falling down. I attempt to untie the drawstring so i could pull them up and the knot i tied in the drawstring wouldn’t come undone. i am now panicking as my boxers are in full view, i can’t pull the shorts up as the drawstring was tied too tightly. So with one hand i am trying to grip the shorts the other hand trying to pull the knot tied undone. i finally yank the drawstring so hard that when i pulled the string the other string got stuck in the shorts. My face now bright red as i couldn’t easily walk with my shorts so loose on me. I literally had to finish the tour with my hand gripping one side of the shorts and the other side basically sagging as it had both my wallet and keys in it. At one point the leg openings of my boxers had rode up my legs again. I attempted to pull the leg openings of my boxers down with my free hand, in the process I lost my grip and ended up having my shorts drop around my ankles, leaving me in my boxers. I quickly pulled the shorts back up as i was completely mortified. Despite these issues, i will keep the shorts and wear them if i have. no other options. ... show more
