Review on ๐Ÿƒ BALEAF Men's 2 in 1 Athletic Running Shorts: Quick Dry, Zipper Pocket, 5" Lined Workout Shorts by Bobby Blanton

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great shorts but sizing is misleading

On a positive note these shorts are great in terms of comfort and last a long time. Will definitely be buying more (one size up - see below). Cons: People have complained about the size of the case, but my Galaxy S6 fits perfectly. But I still won't put my running phone in because there's nothing holding the bag to my body, so my phone will just smack me from behind all the time. A pocket would be nice for cash, but anything else will bounce annoyingly with every step. But the biggest problem is the size of the waist. Medium says it fits 32.5-34.5 inches. My waist ranges from 32 to 34 inches depending on my weight so I ordered medium (despite the fact that I usually wear a size large almost everywhere). The belt was terribly tight, to the point where I couldn't walk in it without fear of throwing up from the waist constriction. Just standing was uncomfortable. I immediately cut out the elastic (actually it's sewn on pretty well so I put a few holes in it) and now the shorts are acceptable. The shorts tie so no elastic is needed anyway. So I will buy a LARGE size if I buy a few more pairs. (By the way, if it helps, I'm 6', 180 pounds, 33" waist and 42" chest.)

Pros
  • The inside of the briefs is knitted for a secure and comfortable feel
Cons
  • Expensive
