Review: Best underwear I've probably ever purchased. Quick dry, hard-wearing, ultra light, comfortable. - I bought a single pair of these not knowing if I'd like them. The day I received them I ordered the two-pack. I would like to order a 100 pack. These are so comfortable, light, airy, and breathable. I wear them around the house, I've slept in them, and mostly I've been wearing them as daily underwear. I think if I was going to wear them to the gym or some such I'd prefer a size larger, which I might try soon, as I like boxers a bit smaller than top layer gear. Of course I wouldn't also need underwear. I'd stick to dark colors due to the shearness of them in public. They're made of 100% NYLON, which is for me the gold standard for hard-wearing, long lasting shorts and underwear. I first bought the green (nice) then the steel or charcoal (also nice) or whatever and now I'm going to order another 2 pack in brown. Thanks and stay frosty.
Review: sensibly short - I have spent a great deal of time looking for shorts like this. All the major brands has nothing sensibly short these days due to the fashion trend of shorts that hangs down to your knees. Hay with more and more global population are obese this fashion tide seems no end in sight. In recent years I have better luck finding my shorts in Asia trips. Even then finding one with the right cut and build quality is more miss than hit. I was close to giving up looking on desertcart until I see this. I was very skeptical so I order only one to see. It exceeded my expectation. I am 6’ 150 lb with 32 waist. Thinking these are likely from China where no name brands for domestic market tends to be sized very small I ordered L. It fits me nearly perfectly except the waist band feels slightly loose. The cut is very nice with about 2 ¼” inseam. Without the excessive pleats it does not have the all too common oversized miniskirt appearance. The waist band on the front wears very close to my belly button and I like that. There is no ugly brand logo which is nice. The tiny pocket is barely big enough for a small house key and is typically insecure. The stitching quality is as good as the major brands costing three times more. Yes, running shorts are the biggest rip-offs from the usual suspects. The key is to buy them off season. These are made in El Salvador. Sold and shipped by desertcart. I ordered the graphite instead of my usual black and very glad with the choice. Thankfully it is not the usual sick light grey but quite blackish as graphite should. The fabrics of outside and the liner look and feel identical. They are very soft and supple, and very comfortable to the skin. The liner’s cut is perfect everywhere. It is made of three panels instead of the common two. None of the common cutting across the cheeks at the back feeling. The elastics around the legs as well feel nice and well stitched and sized. The liner breaths well so these are perfect for the hottest of weather. I test worn it for hours around the house and this is one of the most comfortable shorts I have bought in recent time. There is no bothersome static cling. Wanting a perfect fit, I am ordering a medium of the same color. If medium does not feel too tight I will a few. desertcart has a winner here in price as well as quality. They are perfect for wearing around the house as well as active activities. A good small purchase makes me smile.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is the inner liner tight enough to hide a persons excitement**
A: That all depends on: a) how excited you get, and b) How much excitement you have to hide. .... The inner liner is tight enough for all normal activities. ..... If your excitement is small it won't show, if your excitement is huge, no amount of liner can prevent people from seeing how excited you are.

**Q: What kind of underwear do you wear with them?**
A: Underwear!?! The French wore underwear with ranger panties, and the Nazis invaded easily. Be a man, and protect America!

If you're Canadian maybe you should wear underwear. It gets cold there. Are you Canadian, eh?

**Q: Do they have a net to hold all the bits?**
A: These shorts DO have a liner. But I would not suggest storing your drill bits in these shorts. These shorts are designed to inspire freedom.

**Q: How comfortable would these shorts be to sleep in?**
A: I sleep in them and find them comfortable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ light, short, and CHEAP
*by D***Y on August 21, 2013*

I am opposed to spending too much on workout clothing, I also do not like running shorts or shirts that are not purpose-built for running and am fairly picky in this regard; the clothes cannot be too long, too heavy, have too much stitching, the stitching cannot rub, etc... I also (for better or worse) am not a slave to trends and could not care less how my clothes look while I'm sweating my *$$ off running from the middle-age spread and poor health which come from inadequate activity. I wear them road and trail running. I do not wear them to the gym. These shorts are very light. The material is wispy-thin. They have no pockets (except for a very small key pocket inside the elastic band) or zippers, snaps, buttons, or ties. They are lined, but there is no extraneous material for decoration or otherwise. Regarding that last point, pay attention to the inseam length on these. I do not wear these to the gym because these things are as close to naked as I can comfortably get and still feel within the law when I am outside the house. There are those among your friends and relations who may mock your short-shorts (the runners won't), because these shorts are extremely short. The word 'short' appears in that last sentence 4 times for a purpose. You have been warned. Even I -- thick-skinned as I might be -- have to keep reminding myself that the green version of these are worn by Marines for PT (physical training). How embarrassed can one be dressed like a Marine? And while I am running in them, their brevity is a feature I love -- it adds to the feeling that they aren't even there. A concern I had when I first bought them was that their thinness was an indication that they were not durable. That has not proved to be true. This pair is my second, and the first has lasted for years with only minor pilling in the liner. No dead elastic, no wear holes, no undone seams. The same cannot be said for a big name brand pair which I have had for less time and which cost twice as much on sale! Finally the regular price is unbelievably low, especially for purpose-built running shorts, and Amazon usually discounts them further. If you're a value-shopper and you run for your health or pleasure (not because you look awesome while running), and you are somewhat thick-skinned against the inevitable taunts of your loved ones, these are great. Otherwise...you will have to spend more and be less comfortable.
