I purchased these for myself but ended up giving them to my son. My only complaint - You need bigger sizes for us bigger guys. I am an avid weightlifter and my thighs are 28" in diameter. The waist was fine on me but these shorts were very tight, like spandex tight on my thighs.
My son is 15 years old, is 5' 10" tall, and weighs 205lbs. He is a gym rat. My son says these are his new favorite gym shorts. My son is very active and works out 6 days a week. He is not gentle and is notorious for wrecking clothes (rips, tears, stretches) while working out.
I asked my son for his opinion and this is what he says: "These shorts are very lightweight and breathable. You almost forget you are wearing any shorts. You will definitely feel any breeze blow through the material but that is great for those hot muggy 100% humidity days. These shorts are a bit snug on the thighs but stretch and flex very nicely. I usually wouldn't have anything in my pockets while working out but the zipper pockets are very nice for securing whatever is in your pockets. Not sure how durable the zipper will be as it is a small zipper with fine teeth. I like the reflective "Badge Life" logo on the thigh. The drawstring seems to be of sturdy material. The waistband is nice and does not bind or irritate my waist."
Overall, my son wants more of these shorts. I would definitely buy several pairs for myself if you make them in bigger sizes.
