Review on Ultimate Basketball πŸ‘– Performance Set: Athletic Essentials Shorts by Brett Islam

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Bad design is best in Active

Another reviewer wrote that you get what you pay for, but I disagree with that opinion. You can usually get a better deal if you buy in bulk, and if you buy in a pack of 5 for $6, you're not getting your money's worth. Advantages: The material is light and airy and, thanks to polyester, absorbs moisture as advertised. . I didn't find the material overly transparent as other reviews have reported. The waist fitted well and four of the five shorts fitted well (one of them fitted more like a large). Overall, the shorts are great for lounging around the house and a light workout, but nothing more. Cons: As someone familiar with commercial sewing machines I can tell you to put these garments together, they are not calibrated and probably too old to work with the material these shorts are made from. A lack of quality and attention to detail is indicative of poor quality control and a very uneducated/ignorant/poorly trained workforce. These shorts are basic clothing that tries to masquerade as mid-range clothing. I bought $5 shorts from Walmart which got better. Seams were hastily taped together with a heap of materials, suggesting that faster construction is more required than durability and general base composition. Threads on all garments are excessively loose and will likely need re-sewing after first wash (as mentioned in other reviews). Decorations in the form of stripes look sloppy from a distance, which is why the clothes look sloppy and of poor quality. In short, again a great relaxation product as you might want to be at home when they fall apart after getting out of your chair or doing a heavy stretch.
