These shorts are very comfortable and have a nice softness that makes them easy to wear for long periods. The drawstring works well and helps get a secure fit without digging in. The color looks sharp and stays bright after washing. The seam quality is solid and holds up well during workouts. The wearability is excellent since they feel light and breathable. There is also a bit of stretchiness which makes movement easy whether you are at the gym or relaxing at home. Overall this is a great pair of athletic shorts with comfort, quality, and durability.

I bought the same size (2XL) and similar style of three brands of active mesh shorts with pockets: Russell Athletic (http://amazon.com/dp/B00719ZQG6), Champion (http://amazon.com/dp/B0036OS6LW), and Starter (found in-store at Walmart). I typically wear size 48 or 50 (48 is typically snug, 50 a tad loose). All three of these products advertise 2XL as fitting sizes 46-48. Due to the stretchiness, I found all three fit more forgivingly than my typical size, but otherwise were true to size. All three are very comfortable. For length, the starter are the shortest (but not embarrassingly so), Champion has a medium length, and Russell comes just past my knee. All three are slightly see-through (Starter least so), but not enough so that anyone could see anything from a casual inspection, especially if you wear similar colors underneath. I got all dark colors (either Navy or Black), so YMMV with lighter colors. Of the three, I prefer the fit of the Russell Athletic the most. Champion tends to slip down in the back, as does the Starter to slightly a lesser degree. Because of this, with both the Champion and Starter I have to be very careful of the weight I put in the pockets; putting in my phone, wallet, and keys will make both brands quickly end up on the floor, whereas in the Russell I had no trouble walking around carrying all of those items. I have not tried running with that much weight yet. I still like both the Starter and Champion enough to keep them, but I would buy Russell next time instead. Read more

These shorts are perfect for my tall yet slim husband. The waist fits him perfectly and the length goes to his knees. The fabric keeps him cool and feels comfortable on his skin. Would purchase this short again. Read more

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! Read more

I bought two pair, navy & black color, 3 xlt. The black one has a pant liner and a tighter fit, the navy one doesn’t have a pant liner and a much looser fit. The quality is good, they’re lightweight and I only wear them around the house so I’ll keep them. Why the difference in fit and structure when I’m buying the same size?! Read more
