Athletic Works Men's 8" Active Grid Mesh Drawstring Shorts, 2-Pack, Sizes S-3XL

I had an AirmannFirst Class try these out. He has become quite an expert on workout clothes. These shorts are awesome. They are made out of lightweight material. Elastic waist with a drawstring. In military clothes, he wears a medium. These were medium and true to size. He liked that they were a bit longer than some running shorts. After he modeled them for this review, he took them back to base with him. He says they are his go-to for running and for sleeping in the barracks. And yes, if you look at the picture, you are correct, that I’d a baby goat in our living room. Another story for another day. In the past year, I have become a sewist (a person who sews, because sewer gives the wrong impression.) I’ve started looking at fabric and construction on everything. These are sewn well. No loose strings or unraveled places. The mesh is not so flimsy that you could easily poke a hole in it. The drawstring doesn’t slide out at the slightest tug. I was pleased with everything about these shorts. A good value.

I got a pair of these shorts in black for my 13 year old son for gym class. And he absolutely loves them. He has many other pairs of gym shorts. But they all seem to fall down from the waist. These actually stay on his waist and the draw string helps and stays put. He also stated he really like the material , very comfy to wear and he wants more in other colors. Easy to wash and dried super fast. The price is unbeatable
