Review on Performance Men'S 2-In-1 Running Shorts With Inner Liner And Zipper Pockets, 7-Inch Length, For Gym And Athletic Workouts by Moe Gilbert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A bit small, and narrow in the thighs

It's so hard to get shorts without a try-on. Depending on the material and the cut, the sizing can vary widely. I have shorts sized from XL to 4X that fit me well, and I've had to give away some 3X and 4X that were too small. Most of what fits well is either 2X or 3X. These come (as of writing this) in a max size 2X, but they appeared to be stretchy and I liked the look from the pictures, so I had high hopes that these would fit me well.Unfortunately, they don't. The outer part of the shorts really aren't stretchy at all - kind of a smallish 2X, in my opinion. And the spandex inner shorts are, of course, stretchy, but not made for someone with bike riders legs. These are really made for someone with slender thighs, which is not me. I would say these 2X labeled shorts are really an XL or at most 1.5 XL.I have to say, I'm bummed about this, because I really like the look, the feel, the style; basically everything about these shorts except for the size and lack of fit.

Pros
  • Occasion:Gym, Running, Workout, Fitness, Cycling, Training, Jogging, Basketball, Boxing Wear and Outdoor living etc.
Cons
  • The shorts may not be versatile enough to be worn for casual activities outside of the gym or athletic setting
