They do the job just like most other brands

I have several other brands of running shorts (Asics, DSG, Nike and Under Armour). All of them pretty much fit my goals (fitness workouts). There are slight differences in fit and design between the two (e.g. Asics has the tightest fit which I prefer but no pockets, DSG, a Dick's Sporting Goods brand, uses the nicest materials and is better tailored than others, but has the longest/longest baggy fit (What I don't like is that Nike uses the thinnest and most difficult tip to use.) But for…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Good but not great

7 inch shorts fit perfectly and look good. The only problem is that the elastic around the waist doesn't seem to be as strong as the shorts I've bought before. Not a deal breaker but suggest they look into it.

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • There are some nuances

I use these for moderate runs with a typical duration of 45-60 minutes. Pros: *High quality, lightweight material that looks and feels good *Good side pockets, although I don't think you'll enjoy walking around with your phone (it fits easily) *Inner lining that keeps you comfortably in place , but of course tighter than a bathing suit Cons: * All my shorts are soaked with sweat after running. 100% of them (front, back, sides, top, bottom - everything) which is different from other materials…

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Appearance

Good walking/running shorts

These are exactly what I was looking for, nothing flashy just a good fit, well tailored shorts - the price could have been lower but they don't deserve a star deduction. I've tried several other name and no name brands with no success, they replace old adidas shorts that are no longer made.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Refurbished

No elastic? for men

These are the worst running shorts I have had in my 40 years of running, although this particular brand used to be one of the best. I returned my first order because I would have run in my ankle shorts if I hadn't held them with my hand for the first run. I assumed I ordered a size too big, but I also noticed that there was no "click" where the elastic should have been. I ordered a replacement one size smaller than my previous order and again the shorts didn't hold up even though I pulled the…

Pros
  • Brilliantly finished
Cons
  • No uniform required
