This TSLA pair of shorts are amazing. I have gone swimming, running, camping, hiking, and yoga in these. Its even comfortable enough just to wear around the house and every day stuff. Its even suitable for going out to lunch with friends, seriously its so comfortable. I love this pair, just wish it wasn't so costly at the time I purchased this item, but it was worth it because its holding up so well. I am a very flexible active person and these shorts are great. Some times I forget I am wearing bottoms at all, they are that easily forgotten. Toss your underwear away when wearing these shorts, besides it already covers you with the compression portion, no chaffing running long distance, when swimming, I felt naked, except for the floating pockets lol, but that's okay. Its ideal for doing Yoga and stretches and your lifting workouts and such, not sure about bench presses though. I love it. Another plus side about these shorts, they dry so fast. Great product and very pleased with this item.
