Wondering what size to get?
Our Best Guidance On Size Selection
All dimensions in the tables below are given in inches. In deciding which size is for you we recommend that you pull out your "go-to" similar garments, and lay them flat on your bed to measure them against the chart below and see what matches up!
Sort of in-between waist sizes? If you sometimes or always have issues like a lot of us with "muffin-topping", meaning more than average body fat around your mid-section, we recommend going with the larger size to prevent this from occurring with these shorts. If not and/or you DGAF showing off (like most of us here) then go a size down man!
Right in the range below? Go ahead and get that size for a regular fit in cotton shorts, go down a size in nylon shorts to show off that junk in the trunk and equipment in the hood!
Important Garment Care Advice
Our premium Cotton-Spandex Stretch Twill Chino and Cotton-Spandex French Terry material will eventually shrink about 0.5" to 1" in all dimensions below if you dry them in the dryer. If they end up a little too loose and you wanna you can always shrink them in the dryer a few times ;) We strongly recommend cold wash only on "delicate" setting and air drying them, hung or laid flat (prevent most wrinkles by hand smoothing at this stage), followed by a cool iron if necessary.

Our exclusive Nylon-Spandex materials do not shrink. Their antimicrobial properties enable you to wash them less often - but when you do, we still recommend cold wash and air drying them, hung or laid flat (prevent most wrinkles by hand smoothing at this stage), followed by a cool iron if necessary. But they will also be just fine in the dryer, don't worry too much about them! But you can also read more our Nylon Shorts Care Tips in the Blog by clicking here.

You will not want to have another pair of shorts. Perfect for the gym for any exercise, especially lifting. He mesh is soft and stretches with you. They are great for running because they breathe. And, yeah, they look great!

First of all, I love the way these shorts feel. They are smooth and comfortable. They are also very well-constructed, including zippered pockets that don’t get stuck. I am often looking for athletic shorts that are not overly long without venturing into the world of ultra-short running shorts; these fit the bill. The sizes do run on the larger size so I ordered medium rather than the large I would usually order.

First of all, these shorts feel great. The synthetic fabric feels smooth and flexible unlike some other synthetics that can be scratchy or stiff. The shorts are well-constructed including zippered pockets that do not get stuck. Lastly, I love the color. This shade of green is not one I’ve seen in lots of other places so it’s nice to have a bit wider color palette in my workout clothes.
The shorts do run on the larger side so I ordered a medium when I would usually have ordered a large and they fit just right.

These are the greatest shorts. The length is great, not too long, not too short, perfect mid thigh. Shorter than I usually wear in workout shorts, but I like it so much better. The material is soft and feels great. High quality. My waist is 36 and I got the large, and the fit is really good. So glad I got these, they are awesome shorts.

I love these work out shorts. They are so comfortable and soft, the quality is high, and love the colors and style. The shorts are shorter than I normally wear, but I love it! I am a 36 inch waist and the Large size fits perfectly.
