Just a short review. They're comfortable, fit tight where they should be(waist) and flexible enough in other areas to maneuver with ease. I can do all the kicking and stretching with no problems wearing these, and don't feel restricted in movement whatsoever. They've got a beastly velcro fastener that runs up the front with a velcro flap at the top that I can't imagine would ever come undone. Then to make doubly sure they don't slip, there's an inside shoestring-type tie that secures these to your hips. The logo is subtle so the shorts don't become an eyesore (some manufacturers out there get loud with their designs and logos.) I recommend these.

I preface this by saying that finding womens fight shorts that are functional and not concerned with the sexy factor is nearly impossible. So I thought I'd try Piranha's men's shorts with the flex panel. I ordered a small, hoping that my legs would not get lost in the shorts. I also liked the price, in case they didn't work out. The shorts arrived practically the next day with a personal letter from the company owner. To be honest, I didn't expect the quality of the shorts for the price I was willing to pay. I could tell at a glance that the flex panel was going to add comfort to my workouts. The materials was light, yet strong. Unfortunately, mens sizing being what it is, the shorts did not fit well enough on my thighs. I sent a hopeful email out through the Piranha website, expecting at most the offer to exchange. What I got was a heartfelt apology and acknowledgement that womens shorts are difficult to find and difficult to design. They offered an immediate, hassle-free exchange to try to xsmall. When the extra smalls didn't work (mens sizing just doesn't work for most women) I was offered a full refund. Though the shorts themselves did not work for my size, the quality-for-price ratio and the amazing customer service has made me a Piranha fan.

This is the second pair of this type of short I have purchased from Piranha gear. The first pair were stolen, and I had so much confidence in the performance they gave me that I purchased another pair exactly. They are comfortable, durable, and attractive. I was them in cold water and hang them dry, and they show no signs of wear after 20+ rolling sessions. I forget I am wearing them during my jiu-jitsu practice, which means they're perfect!

I ordered these for my ACTIVE husband. He loved this product and wears them at least 4 days a week for various mma disciplines. They are comfortable durable and the company was fast and sent a handwritten letter with purchase. My husband loves them and we just ordered another pair.

I read it in a previous review and didn't trust it so take my word for it, get the next size up. These shorts run small. Not much but enough to be too tight to be functional. And this leads me to why you should buy from Piranha Gear. When I found that I truly needed a larger size I sent them back with a note directly to Piranha Gear and they promptly returned a larger size (no charge) with a hand written note that said they hoped these would fit and if I needed anything else just to let them know. Not many companies performing this kind of personal service in a timely fashion these days and it was very refreshing. On top of that, the gear is great at a great price offering superb value. I love me some Piranha Gear.

These are nice shorts and they fit me very well. I bought one pair and then went back and ordered a second pair. The material is very lightweight but tough. The material does not retain much moisture, and it breathes. So, I can work up a sweat during training and the shorts don't get heavy with the sweat. They stay comfortable. With the flex panel, small slit in the pant legs on each side, and slightly baggy design, there is absolutely no restriction to movement.

They are very nice shorts. Highly recommended!

Bought these for my first grappling tourney this weekend. The sizing guide was right-on, and they are extremely comfortable. Velcro closure with inner drawstring make sure they cinch to the size you need. The side slits and inside-thigh flex panel made for great freedom of movement without worrying about adjusting the fit or having my movement impeded during matches. These are my new favorite BJJ shorts.

GREAT PRODUCT ,,,, DOES EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD,,,,, DELIVERY AT MY DOOR ON EXACT DATE,,, NICE TO SAY SOMETHING NICE ABOUT A RETAILER ...THEY COME FAR AND FEW IN-BETWEEN

The Piranha Gear shorts are hard to beat for the price. The quality is very comparable to other much higher priced shorts (Kaizen, Sprawl, Reevo, Etc.) but at a cheaper price. I got mine on sale for under $30. The flex panel in the crotch area is not as wide as some other brands, but in the functionality of the shorts I have yet to notice the difference. Once again for the price you can not beat the value.
