Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My purchase of these shorts came from the idea that some friends and I would wear basketball shorts on certain days when we hung out, sort of as a joke. I didn't own any because I think most basketball shorts are very unflattering for both guys and girls, but my friend let me borrow some older running shorts that were pretty short and had to be really old. I looked around the internet for some retro shorts with the piping around the legs that went up the sides, but all I could find were ones designed for girls. That's when I happened upon these shorts.
While I haven't been a big fan of the mesh, jersey material that these and most basketball shorts are made of, I couldn't deny that these looked hot. I had to have a pair not only because I think they're funny, but I think I could pull off the look despite not being in the shape the models here are in. My first obstacle was picking a color because the combinations offered are all awesome. I narrowed it down to the two shades of blue and decided on the light blue with burgundy piping/trim. The second obstacle was choosing a size. I recently bought two pairs of AC briefs in medium and they seem ok, but the reviews for these shorts say they run a little small. The problem is, I'm at the upper threshold of the medium measurements and the lower on the large. A friend helped me out and I decided to go with the large.
I'm glad I did go with a size up because they fit perfectly. The waist probably wouldn't have been a problem on the mediums, but they might have been a little tighter than I want on the legs. As I'm working on getting slightly more in shape, I think the desire to wear these shorts more will be good motivation. I love how they look on me, so I can't wait to see how they are when I'm a little more trim. Pending my attitude towards the shorts over the next few months, I can easily see myself picking up one or two more color options.
