NORTHYARD Men's 7" Quick Dry Athletic Shorts - Lightweight Hiking, Workout, Running, Basketball & Gym Training Shorts for Active Lifestyles | Perfect for Outdoor Adventures, Sports & Fitness Activities

As a woman who can never find workout shorts I don’t hate, it finally occurred to me to look for pull-on men’s shorts, and I found these. I’ve always been jealous of the comfortable, loose-fitting, long shorts that men get to wear. All women's shorts are either very short or worse—the stretchy, form-fitting kind, which IMO tend to be unattractive, hot and uncomfortable. Also, men’s shorts come in much more interesting colors and lightweight fabrics, while women's are always black, white, gray and a couple of primary colors or worse, garish little girl colors. Men’s clothes, however come in all these wonderful subtle colors that mix well with all my t-shirts, so I don’t have to torture myself to come up with a workout outfit every day. I live in Arizona, where we come home drenched with sweat after every work out, so I really appreciate how cool and comfortable these are, as well as the fact that they come in so many beautiful colors that I can have a different pair to wear every day. I bought men’s medium as per their sizing chart, which seems true to the measurements. They fit me about like a women’s medium (I wear size 8). They’re very well made - nice quality. Also, I can fit my large-size iPhone in any of the 3 pockets, which all have zippers. Very happy with my new shorts.I bought these shorts for my son. He's pretty picky about shorts. He had one pair of shorts similar to these and I couldn't find anymore. I'm not joking when I say I washed those shorts daily. I came across these by accident and they're PERFECT. He wants all the colors. If you're a guy that likes lightweight shorts you can move around in, these are what you're looking for.I bought these for my husband. We are both personal trainers. We need something that felt like Lululemon. But I did not want to drop $180 on 3 pair since lulus quality has dropped. We/he is bending, turning, running, moving all day in these and washing them weekly and they are holding up great.This is a great pair of shorts, everything works well, including the zipper pockets, where on some others like that I have had issues with the zipper catching the pocket mesh material. I normally wear Large and on these chose to go XL. I am not disappointed with my choice, but they are pretty loose everywhere except the waist and I would say they run true to standard American sizes. If you want your regular fit, there is no need to size one up. I appreciate the wide array of colors and intend to buy a few more to match different outfits.I ordered a pair of these shorts and honestly did not have high expectations. These shorts are way better than I expected. Comfortable, lightweight and they look good for just about any occasion. I will probably end up buying a few more because they are so comfortable.At first I only bought one pair just to check out the quality and fit. I was super surprised how well they fit and the quality was great! Love how they have zippers on every pocket as things tend to fall out sometimes when I’m driving, working out ect.. I was so pleased I ended up buying 4 of them as I hate wasting time searching for quality shorts that fit. 5 stars!These are pretty good - they do bunch a little, but they are flexible so it's not too bad. They are not uncomfortable when sweaty, they breathe well enough. I don't care for the hard plastic ends on the zippers, they kind of flop around when strenuously working out (I thought I dropped something once when it hit my hand). Otherwise they are pretty good.I really like these shorts. It's hard to find a pair of lightweight shorts that have zippered pockets. I can never find them before. Zippered pockets = never having anything fall/drop out of your pockets. The light weight material feels fine and doesn't weigh you down when they get wet/soaked from sweat or rain. The elastic band is ok, & the tie to tighten the waist is on the INSIDE of the short, allowing you to tighten and then tuck the strings out of view. A much nicer look because of that. The side vents don't appear to make much of a difference to me when running/working out, but that could be me. Overall, a great pair of shorts and the fit has been good. After a wash, they still retain their size and shape.
