Men's Mesh Pocket Short

(I did not receive any compensation, discount or free products for my review. I don't work for this company. This is just flat honesty.) The first thing I can say is I am pleasantly surprised that shorts of this quality come at such a low price point. That is a big selling point here. I could buy Nike, but why when I can get the same thing for $11-$12 bucks? That seems like a waste of money. Mind you, I'm not a, "Keep up with the Jones' kind of guy.) So, unless you just have to have a "brand," buy 3 or 4 pair of these instead. **After having having several pair of these shorts for over a month I came back to edit my review from a 4 star rating to a 5. I suppose since I've already ordered several additional pair I really like them. I wear them around the house every day. They are extremely comfortable - not only for relaxing but for yard work, painting, etc. In fact, I like these shorts so much that I hate it when I don't have a pair clean, so like I said, "I ordered more!" I live in central hell, where the summer climate is so hot that the last thing you want to do is work outside or in a hot garage. Yet, the mesh fabric accomplishes its job -matching the description. The mesh allows heat to escape and maintain a cool feeling without trapping in sweat. (Whomever created the fabric should be rich by now.) When beckoned I come in from the garage, sit down at the dinner table and the shorts are throughly dry. *The shorts launder easily and hold up well in hot water and a hot dryer. No special steps required. I don't like athletic shorts that you can't just toss in the dryer. Some expensive shorts state, "Wash only. Hang to dry." That's too much work! Draw string is one piece with a knot below, so you don't have to worry about loosing the string in the washer and then trying to find it and put it back in. (I hate that.) Exercising: I've worked out for 35 years, and I can tell you these are some of the coolest and most comfortable shorts I've ever worn. The pockets are the perfect depth. There is plenty of room to fit my keys and iphone 6-plus. Unlike some shorts, whatever is in my pocket's stays there. It does not fall out. (The manufacturer gets some points there.) I don't have to worry about loosing my keys, an adventure I'd rather skip. (Of course, be logical.) I wouldn't recommend engaging in heavy athletic activities with expensive items in your pocket, yet I can wear the shorts to make a quick trip to the store without my phone falling out. Importantly, there is plenty of room in the circumference of the legs to allow for men with very muscular thighs. The fabric stretches a bit, but will not remain stretched out. If you have huge thighs you might consider ordering a size larger than normal unless you fancy very tight shorts? I've never had that issue. There is ample room in the crotch for any man; however, be aware that you will not get any athletic support from the shorts. So, depending you your preference and need you may wish to wear protection underneath. Lastly, the shorts are a bit longer than I expected. The waist to knee measures 19" and the crotch to bottom of shorts is 13". I am 6'3", and the bottom meets the top of my knee. That is a thorough review of the shorts. I hope it helps you make an educated decision.

The fit and material are great! My son loves these shorts, so we ordered another pair.

Nice fitting, comfortable basketball shorts

Perfect - Exactly what I was looking for. An old school, mesh basketball type shorts with pockets. Very comfortable.

Great fit and affordable.

High quality, comfortable and long-lasting. It took 9 years of use to tear a hole in mine.

Bought a few pairs at once. Love the fit, absolutely hate the pockets. They are way too shallow. Everything is put in them, falls out. Walking, sitting, or anything in between, my stuff falls out. They have last a while, but them pockets absolutely suck

Love the Russell brand shorts. Durable, comfortable.

Fit parfait

These shorts are really comfortable to move around and work out with, and the pockets don't feel too small or short. Great colour too

Good shorts, good fit

Great buy for how cheap it is and is great for the gym

Great product. Light double mesh. Beach in the summer, pyjamas in the winter. Wash up well
