These things wrinkle

I wore these for about 2 months loved them so much the first week I bought a second pair what a mistake these things fall apart so quickly I have other pairs of these umbra shorts that still punch after years. The only way I'll ever buy them again if they're $10 or less is to spend my money on a better product. I'm not even the type of person to leave reviews but thought I'd save someone else the trouble.

Pros
  • Eliminates chafing maximum comfort
Cons
  • Fits

Strange fit, worse than before

These pants are not flexible and won't even let you lunge or raise your knee during a workout. They're worse than the old Umbro pants, so I'm not sure what happened between then and now. They're also a bit larger than expected, but feel kind of constricting. Bad shorts. The photo shows old and new trousers, both from Umbro, side by side. These are wider and shorter. Both sizes are L.

Pros
  • Machine washable
Cons
  • Ripped

Poor quality shorts

At first I was very happy when I found and ordered these shorts. The same comfort I remember wearing them years ago. The quality is much worse, after only wearing these shorts a few times the seam just below the pocket came undone. I don't carry anything heavy in my pockets and I didn't engage in aggressive actions in these shorts that could bring such a tear. Very disappointed with the quality.

Pros
  • Imported
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Very cheaply made. I took it out right away.

I was glad to buy these once classic shorts. But they're made of very thin material and have stray seams that have come undone in two washes. If this isn't an outright fake, then Umbro is sold out and their name no longer means anything. Update (5/19/2020): After contacting Umbro directly, they confirm that this "Umbro" seller is not them. Brazen fake. The real Umbro asked if I could warn Revane about them lol!

Pros
  • Sports: Soccer
Cons
  • Minor issues

You have failed me. Best Among Men

I ordered a size up to make sure they fit comfortably based on other reviews. A week after my return window closed, they fail. I still have a strong pair from the 90s. They definitely don't match the main emblem, which is already gone. If you're looking to order them for a nostalgic comfort that no longer exists, I'm sorry to say it's out of the question. My dreams of being a doorless jeep commando are not coming true with this current production.

Pros
  • Performance Short
Cons
  • Slightly Ripped

They Fall Apart: Exercise & Fitness

Short Background. I had Umbro shorts in exactly the same style as a kid and I really liked them. Was thrilled to find on Revain. Fit and feel was great. The first pair I ordered arrived with loose "torn" stitching on the front. Revan was unquestionably replaced. The second pair of seams came undone the first time we used them on our family vacation. Now I'm extremely dissatisfied with the quality of the Umbro products and I think that's a shame. $30 for a pair of shorts that just fall apart is…

Classic style (better/worse)

These definitely match the classic style of football shorts from the 80's and 90's. Nylon fabric is heavy and not as breathable. Please note that they do not include elastic in the fabric (except for the waistband). I went to Target and tried on their (nearly) identical plaid shorts, but unlike the store, these shorts were very stiff with little stretch. The cut was also quite odd: tight in the quads and very loose in the crotch and seat. Some brands have me in between sizes, but this was one…

Pros
  • 100% nylon
Cons
  • Some small details

Another purchase brought to you by margaritas

It was a Thursday afternoon. We were at our favorite restaurant for happy hour and my husband started telling me how he was always jealous of the other kids at school who wore Umbro shorts - his family was too poor to buy them in the '90s – and he never knew if they existed. good thing they don't make them anymore. Or. you? I really thought about this list carefully because, like my husband, I felt that Umbros were no longer being made. It looked like it might be a fake. But with the help of a…

Pros
  • Elastic waistband with internal drawstring
Cons
  • Update Availability
