not bad but i don't like them

I want to replace my favorite gym shorts - Adidas Basic 3-Stripes with nice deep pockets and 8 inch inseam. Great for workouts, running or just lounging. Most of the new shorts seem to be very long, but I'm not a basketball player and they look silly on me. Just got them, put them on just to see how they fit/feel. I haven't actually worked with it or owned it in a while, but here are my first impressions. PROS: - I love the way they look and feel and with my build super long shorts just don't suit me and I think it's the perfect length. The fabric feels nice - not too thin not too stiff - I like that the logo is pretty small and unobtrusive, some of the shorts I've looked at have logos that are huge and look awful. Kets are really uncomfortable. They're too narrow to fit in your hands, so getting anything other than tall and narrow, like your phone, is problematic. - Shoelaces - first of all, that's my personal preference, but I don't like it. that they are outside. More importantly, as others have pointed out, the laces are separate and sewn into the sides, increasing the risk of failure as some people have experienced - poor design. - There are also some care instructions on the packaging which I really didn't expect for workout gear (which I expect to be a bit more durable) - No detergent, just cold water, tumble dry low. the picture is attached. Overall they're not bad for $30 but I think I'll return them - I don't like them and their durability seems questionable. If they fix the pockets and drawstring issue I would consider buying them again. But there are other shorts in the $20 range that I will try.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Big and chunky
