Review: Amazing Shorts!!!!! - These shorts are amazing! I have always had sensitive skin and worn all natural cotton fabrics. Recently I began picking up strong fragrances on my cotton clothes that would not wash out when getting physical therapy. Looking for a material that does not readily absorb odors I opted for these shirts and shorts. All I can say is, wow! 1. They are so light and comfortable it's almost like wearing nothing. 2. They are cool to wear. I am in a hot and muggy climate and felt immeasurably cooler going out in these than if I'd worn my cotton shirt and shorts. 3. They are stretchy so they don't choke you when sitting or squatting. 4. It lays/hangs really nice when it's on. The waist band is not choking tight like other shorts and it has nice long drawstrings. 5. The colors are great. I got the black this time, but plan to get other colors. 6. They washed with ease and, yay, they can be tumble dried. 7. There are two pockets that are nice and deep that you'd barely know are there... not bulky. 8. The prices is good too! I'll be buying more! Great for the gym, physical therapy, walking, running errands, and casual wear.
Review: Excellent value! - Incredible value at $8 for 2 pair. These are really nice! I'm absolutely enthusiastic about this purchase, which doesn't happen often, as I'm very picky and demand quality. I especially like the camo pattern and wish they'd offer more patterns. The material is very comfortable. Feels much better on the skin than ordinary cotton. They actually hang nice, not like cotton shorts but depending on you like an old dish rag. They're not too big and they're not too small. They use just the right amount of material. I really hope they continue to produce these and sell them on desertcart. I'd be totally happy buying these for the rest of my life. They really are the best leisure shorts I've ever purchased. Also, the most affordable. You can't beat that! 😊 I've already ordered another 2 pack, and will order more within the next week or two. Extremely happy with this purchase!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good shorts, changed sizing recently though.
*by V***T on December 27, 2025*

Very much like these shorts for the price. Comfortable for workout and casual wearing. No rear pocket but can be overlooked for the value. Received two new ones for a Xmas gift and the sizing has changed. The new shorts in XL have a wider waistline. I usually buy XL for the length so this is a bit of a problem because the extra couple waist inches now make a big difference in being too loose around the waist. Were perfect before for me at 6'1" 160 lbs. For someone with a larger waistline, the new cut may be better. I will try the L next time I buy. The photo shows the old XL in black on top of the new XL in Green. (both new pair were the new larger XL dimensions)
