My husband loves these
These menโs athletic shorts have been a great addition to my everyday wardrobe and workout gear. I have worn them for exercise, running errands, relaxing at home, and outdoor activities, and they have performed well in each situation. They offer the comfort and flexibility I look for in athletic clothing without feeling overly bulky or restrictive. Whether I am doing a more intense workout or simply wearing them throughout the day, they have been easy to move around in and comfortable for extended periods. One of the first things I noticed is how lightweight they feel. The material is breathable and does not weigh me down while I am walking, stretching, lifting, or running. This makes a noticeable difference during workouts because I do not feel like the shorts are holding me back or adding unnecessary warmth. They allow air to circulate, which helps keep me more comfortable when I start sweating or when I am exercising outdoors on a warmer day. The fit has also been very comfortable. These shorts provide enough room through the legs and seat to allow for a full range of motion without looking excessively loose. I can squat, bend, lunge, stretch, and move naturally without feeling restricted. At the same time, they do not feel overly tight or clingy, which is important to me when I am active. The length is practical for workouts and casual wear, providing good coverage while still allowing plenty of freedom around the knees. I appreciate the elastic waistband because it provides a secure fit without digging into my skin. The waistband stretches comfortably as I move, and the drawstring allows me to adjust the fit when needed. This is especially useful during running or more active workouts, when I want to make sure the shorts stay in place. They do not constantly slide down or require frequent adjustment, which allows me to focus on what I am doing instead of worrying about my clothing. The fabric feels soft against the skin and has held up well through regular use. I have worn these shorts for workouts that involve a lot of movement, and they have remained comfortable without causing irritation. The material also dries fairly quickly after sweating, which helps prevent the heavy, damp feeling that some athletic shorts can develop. They are suitable for gym sessions, walks, jogging, cycling, recreational sports, and general outdoor activities. Another feature I find useful is the pockets. They provide enough space for small essentials such as keys, a phone, cards, or earbuds when I am away from home. Having pockets makes these shorts more practical for everyday use because I do not always need to carry a separate bag. The pockets are positioned conveniently and do not interfere with movement. They are especially helpful when I am taking a quick walk or running a short errand and only need to bring a few items with me. The shorts also have a simple, versatile appearance. They look athletic enough for workouts but are not so sporty that they cannot be worn casually. I can pair them with a T-shirt, tank top, hoodie, or athletic shirt, depending on the weather and activity. Their straightforward design makes them easy to incorporate into my regular wardrobe, and they work well for both exercise and relaxing at home. I have also found them convenient to care for. They wash easily and do not require any complicated maintenance. After repeated washing and wearing, they have continued to maintain their overall shape and comfort. The fabric has not become excessively rough, and the waistband still feels secure. Being able to wash them regularly is important for athletic clothing, and these shorts have been easy to keep fresh and ready for the next workout. What I like most is their versatility. I do not have to reserve them for one specific type of activity. They are comfortable enough for lounging, functional enough for exercise, and presentable enough for casual outings. On busy days, I can wear them for a morning workout, continue wearing them while doing chores, and then use them for a quick trip to the store without needing to change immediately. Overall, these menโs athletic shorts have been comfortable, lightweight, breathable, and practical. They provide a good range of motion, stay in place during activity, include useful pockets, and are easy to wash and maintain. I appreciate that they can be used for workouts, outdoor activities, casual wear, and relaxing at home. For anyone looking for a dependable pair of athletic shorts that combines comfort, flexibility, and everyday convenience, these have been a very worthwhile choice.

Good quality and low price = Excellent value!
At this price ($7) these shorts are hard to beat! They fit as expected and make great shorts for the gym. I can fit my key card, ear buds, and phone in the 2 pockets. I find them very comfortable for exercise and for lounging around at home. The leg hems and seams seem very well sewn with no hints of loosening or undoing after about 5 wear/wash cycles.

Great shorts.
Very comfortable and fit well. These are priced very cheap so they wonโt compare to something more premium. That said I am fine with them just for something around the house here and there.

Nice workout shorts!
Nice pair of shorts especially for the price! They fit true to size. The material is nice. It is thin and drys fast but not see through. They wash great and the color has stayed great! Great pair of workout shorts.

Comfortable, stylish, and better quality than expected
Really happy with these shorts. Theyโre comfortable, have a nice athletic look, and are stylish enough to wear casually as well. I was pleasantly surprised by the material, itโs thicker and more substantial than I expected, and the shorts feel sturdier than they might look at first glance. The drawstrings are also a nice touch and actually work well for adjusting the waist when needed. Overall, these feel like a well-made pair of shorts that strike a good balance between comfort, durability, and style. Definitely a solid everyday option.

Great
They are breathable like the reviews says. They also have a decent length that Iโve realized and can really go with any outfit. The pocket size is great. Theyโre versatile and durable shorts that didnโt cost much.

Great shorts regardless of price
All around very nice shorts. A bit snug in the waist without being too tight. I will not buy another brand of shorts while these are available.

Durability Issue
Shorts fit well, comfortable material, no issues with waistband or tie. Good price. I bought 4 pairs in October 2025 and 4 pair December 2025. In April of 2026, a pair frayed on one side in the back midway up going down from center to side about 4 inches. Didnโt think much of it. In June 2026 another frayed in the same area except on the other side. Then in September 2026 another two were frayed with one developing a small hole along the middle seam. Durability is an issue with these shorts. The material feels good and cool but I shouldnโt have this type of wear when the shorts are what I wear around the house only. Donโt workout in them, donโt do any outdoor chores in them and washed in warm water with low heat then hung to remove dampness. Great pair of they fix the material durability.

Buy if u get below Aed 30
The stitching is coming off in one week. Not worth 60-80 AED ... can get better products around 20 AED. Will not advise anyone to buy if price is above Aed 30.

My man loves them !
I bought these shorts for my boyfriend because I seen he didn't have many without holes and stains- these looked too good comfy to pass by for the price , 12.99 for quality shorts is a great deal ! This is what he said he really likes about them 1. His phone fits in the pocket and doesn't fall out 2. They are light weight , soft , and comfy all in one 3. The length is perfect 4. He rarely gets sweaty in them unlike other shorts So I guess it's a 10/10 from us , I would order him another pair if there wasn't such a large price difference in colors
