These are a good basic pair of shorts. I have 3 pairs now, they are comfortable for hiking, biking, swimming etc. I wouldn’t wear these to the gym, the material is more designed for “outdoor” use, Similar to swim trunk material. I’ve worn these rafting, backpacking, and biking. Best use is water sports for sure, quick to dry and zipper pockets are nice. Just wish the zippers pulled top to bottom to close. It’s always awkward to pull a zipper up on a side pocket. The waist ties are good, they don’t disappear into the waist band even when washing. I like the elastic as well, comfy and saves on having to carry a belt on trips/ end up with dry shorts and a wet belt. I wear mine fairly baggy and this makes them a little longer but in general they are a slightly below the knee short. There was a little ride up and adjustments needed when biking and hiking but nothing too annoying and a tighter fit might eliminate that issue. If there was a side pocket for a tool or cell phone they’d be even better. Overall, this is a great light weight short for outdoor use and has shown good durability so far. Read more
So I know this may be odd but these are amazing gym shorts. When I work out I like shorts not pants as it's hot in FL. I also don't like tights, and I don't like short shorts as they provide as much coverage as a swimsuit in certain poses and I don't have a flattering barbie shape. I just want to go to the gym in comfortable shorts, that can hold my phone, ID and a key, and hide my ugly thighs why I work out in peace. I could find no such clothing item in the "women" section. I ordered a size down from what I would in women's and they fit great, they fall just above my knee. I may look a little off but it is so nice being able to stretch and work out while maintaining coverage of essential areas and having pockets for my stuff with zippers so everything doesn't fall out. Nice over pants for the cushioned bicycle underwear/short as well. Read more
Excellent value. Very comfortable and have proved durable for a $17 pair of shorts (shorts year round guy here). The zipper pockets are great. The elastic waist band is strong and the shorts always stay up even with pockets full. Shorts are light weight. For the price cant complain. They dont breathe incredibly well and some dye seemed to rub off on my couch at first, but for the price theyre solid. Read more
These are amazing it feels like your naked, there so light. I do camera operating I just recently wore these at a protest and they were so comfortable. I can’t wait to used them for hiking. Good material, reasonable and affordable. The only advice I would give is don’t carry you’re too many heavy things in your pockets because they will fall down If you’re doing a lot of walking.

Very pleased with these shorts. Usually I will not order clothing on line, but these were a great fit and exactly what I hoped they would be. Love the zipper pockets and both sides as well as the one in the back. These will be used a lot on my beach walks. The shorts are light weight, breathe well and dry quickly. Read more
I'm actually pretty impressed with these. Was looking for a comparable offering from Nike, Addidas, or another big name brand, found these while browsing. Ordered a size over what I was listed to wear (36" waist listed as a large, ordered an x-large) fits perfectly. Stretchy materials are super comfy in hot humid weather and wick moisture away when you work up a sweat. Loved my first pair so much I got two more in different colors (although one came in as an XXL, it still fits well, just a smidge looser) the waistband is elastic and holds well to your waist, so you don't need to worry about pants sagging, but the internal string permits an even more secure fit. Zippers work really well, while anything you put in there will print, it's not that big of an issue. The booty pocket is kinda worthless though, I will say. I don't ever worry about my phone or wallet falling out or stuff getting stolen by a pick-pocket. Great for working out, great for every day use, great for running, and for the guys they definitely make your junk look bigger. Read more
These are decent shorts for the gym with a zipper to keep your phone but they are LONG. I bought a pair and they fall below just the knee. Way too long for running but will probably keep them for lounging and (non-running) gym workouts. Read more
These are great for me. I like how light and comfortable they are yet you can wear them out and about and you don't feel exposed or too informal. Great length and waist size. Can secure if you wish with the tie string but the elastic only is good enough for lounging around the house. They look good too. The zippered pockets are very functional. I bought two pairs (one green, one tan) and keep them in my regular rotation. Read more
