The biggest pain I have when working out is I need to have my phone on me in case I get a call or if I need to change a song depending on the intensity of my workout. Trying to find a pair of shorts that had the underline phone pocket and that didn't look ridiculous would've cost double to triple. The quality is actually astounding and I've ordered more pairs since my first. I bought my first 6 months ago, I've worn them in the gym at least once a week ever since and they still serve as if they were brand new. Couldn't recommend a piece of clothing more so.
