These are good shorts if you want a basic pair to work out or just play around. The sizing feels a little big in certain areas. Not necessarily the waist, but the leg openings. I was afraid to exchange for a smaller size because I felt the waist wouldn't be right. I can deal with it, but it's just something to be aware of when buying. One thing I noticed about these shorts that I couldn't really tell on Amazon or Champion's website is the fact that they are somewhat see-through. Might be more noticeable if white or light colored underwear was worn underneath. Something I might do, is get a pair of Underarmour or similar compression type pants to wear underneath while exercising. Seems like I've noticed guys doing that on Fit For Duty. It might look and feel better while doing something like leg presses where the legs are going to be coming up.

These shorts are cool and comfortable. Very good deal for the money. They keep you nice and dry during sweaty workouts. Some reviewers mentioned that they are somewhat see through. Well when you hold them up to the light they are. But when you put them against your skin they are absolutely not see through, because you need a good bit of light for that to occur. If you have something glowing in your naughty bits region then they'll probably be see through, and you should get to the ER pronto. I have been wearing these in the gym for over a month and no one has cited me for indecent exposure. I wear nothing underneath but a jockstrap (a white one) and I cannot see it through these shorts at all. So don't base your decision to buy these on their sheerness level which is only a conditional occurence.

Product: Every other brand I purchase I use an "L" this seems to be an xl at the very least mis-labelled. The shirts I purchased were perfect but the shorts...wayyy off.

Delivery: timely no problems there at all.

Value for money: Had they fit It would have been 100% but the sizing is deceptive.

Bought two of these for the summer as I work out and swim a lot. Decent quality but they are the low end of the Champion line. Like another reviewer mentioned they almost sheer when held up to the light. There is no inner liner and the material is thin. I also don't like that the draw string is made into a loop instead of two formed ends like the ends of a shoe string. I had to cut mine and I'm sure they will fray.

Due to the thinness of the material I'm not sure I want to swim in these? Better deals out there for sure. Walmart sells Starter gear for 10-12 dollars. Much better stuff.

These are very comfortable and a good length but too loose for my taste. I bought them with the intent to jog in them but they'll be converted to casual shorts instead.

I love wearing these shorts when I do cardio work because I sweat quite a bit but these things stay dry. In addition they are very comfortable (and stylish) to wear anyway.

These are great buys, got three of them. Great for running or gym. They are roomy, comfortable and dry super-fast. Highly recommend them!

I ordered the navy color, which is quite different from the ugly version of it shown as the product image. I'm a 34 (Large), but after reading the reviews I ordered a Medium of these shorts, and it's a little tight but still quite ok. The thighs are a little baggy, which is the only reason I gave it 4 stars. But that's probably a good thing for runners, but I was looking primarily for a home short. Very nice material too.
And thumps up to Amazon and its Prime, I ordered it yesterday and received it today (Saturady).

I needed some lounge/workout shorts and these were simple and inexpensive. The drawstring provides an adjustable fit, while keeping them lightweight and loose. Pockets are especially helpful in shorts of this style to hold keys/iPods/wallet/etc. The quality is something you can expect from Champion (not great, but not bad either).

The only thing to remember is if you see a campfire - go the other direction. These (and probably most other items of clothing made from this material) melt like no other when a spark/fire fairy/ash decides to land on you. After several camp fires, you will look like you were attacked by moths.

I had been using the same running shorts for the past 2 years and they were starting to get loose and not hold up as well. I ordered the Champion shorts and they were a hit from the start. The pockets are great and hold my ipod, keys and anything else I need to have with me for my run. They are light weight shorts and didn't overheat me even in 80+ degree weather with 80%+ humidity.
