If you normally wear L, I suggest you buy XL. Also they are of the absolute cheapest quality you'll likely ever buy including threads unwinding on literally every seam. They smelled like diesel fuel when unpacked which is a trick Chinese use to keep stuff from being bug or infested during shipping, so you'll need to run them through the wash a couple of times before wearing. Oh ya', they are not colorfast & will bleed their die on anything else you was them with. **Q: Is there pockets?** A: Yes, but they are very small. Phone half hangs out and falls out constantly. **Q: Do these shorts have an inner lining?** A: No. **Q: What size should I order for a 38 inch waist** A: I ordered XL. And that what I wear ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ very comfy *by on Reviewed in the United Arab Emirates 4 January 2022* good for sleeping ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality shorts *by on Reviewed in the United States 2 July 2026* This is a great deal for a bulk pack and my husband wears these constantly. I will say they're not as lightweight as typical running shorts... I'd put them somewhere between a running short and basketball shorts. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Great but material is thin *by on Reviewed in the United States 10 August 2026* I love the material but it is quite thin but they r stretchy an soft true to size as well --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/316972950-real-essentials-mens-gym-shorts-shorts-stretchy-long-comfy-drawstring](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/316972950-real-essentials-mens-gym-shorts-shorts-stretchy-long-comfy-drawstring) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
