Review on πŸ‘– AMY COULEE Men's Casual Classic Short: Style, Comfort, and Versatility by Marcus Merritt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfortable on the couch or in the gym. But LONG legs

For reference, I'm 6ft 3in and 250lbs with an athletic build. I usually wear men's jeans in size 36/32 but up to size 38/32 with a belt to accommodate my hips which are larger than 'standard' due to strength training. I chose these shorts as a gym option in hopes that they will be compatible with CrossFit workouts and I was not disappointed. I ordered a grey/black pair in size XXL and the waist fits well (with a wide drawstring that ties securely they can be a bit large and have no issues). The actual leg of the shorts, as stated by other reviews, significantly longer than you would normally expect when used to traditional US sizing. For me, both pairs were well below the knee, exposing the kneecap only on a full squat. That's not necessarily a disadvantage for me but a bit unconventional. The quality of the fabric is definitely as good as it should be, especially considering the price. The cut was also the same for both shorts, although the gray shorts appear significantly softer than the black ones in the first test. I suspect it has something to do with the dyeing process and I'm hoping the black pair will soften up after a few washes. Overall - very happy with this purchase and a quality product well worth the money.
