Review on Brooklyn Surf American Jogger Stripes by Kyle Deel

These shorts look great, feel good and are soft and fit me perfectly (5ft 8in, XS shorts hit just above the knee). They are thin but still feel like they have some weight. No complaints about the style or fit, and the $10 price is amazing too. However: - The quality is noticeably crappy. There are threads straight out of the package. hanging everywhere. It seems like at least half of the stitching wasn't sewn up properly so it wasn't slowly unraveling. I'd happily pay $5-$10 more for a pair if Brooklyn Athletics invests in better quality control.- At least one other reviewer mentioned small pockets. Don't expect a lot of things to be kept in pockets, and don't expect anything to stay in place when you sit down. It doesn't really bother me as I mainly use it for the gym. I'll probably buy another pair, because the first ones dissolve relatively quickly. Even with significant quality issues, I think they're still worth the <$10 price tag. Update May 1, 2020: I've added a star because these shorts somehow managed to stay intact for about 18 months of frequent use (despite continued wear). a few stitches and a repaired pocket). I literally live in two different pairs of these shorts during social distancing so it's fair if I upgrade my initial rating from 3 to 4 stars. Buy a third pair now to avoid real pants.
