5.0 out of 5 starsExtremely Comfortable and Breathable Shorts
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2024
There is a lot to like with these 5 inch, polyester-spandex blend, running shorts from Gaglg. I really like the material which is touted in the Amazon item description as 92% Polyester, 8% Spandex. It is really light weight and so breathable that you can actually feel a breeze through it. That's not to say they're see-through by any stretch and they really do seem to draw moisture away when I'm working out or treadmilling. I also really like the length and fit. I usually take an XL so ordered an XL and these fit spot-on. The length comes approximately 5 inches above my knee which is a welcome change from the standard fare of knee length shorts I usually encounter. There are two zippered pockets which zippers work extremely well and are deep enough for my iPhone Pro. Further, the waistband is a good inch and a half elastic that holds the shorts firmly in place no matter how much stuff I cram in the pockets. There is a drawstring to provide an extra cinch should you need it but the waistband does more than enough to hold the shorts up even when weighted down. The craftsmanship and quality of these shorts is very good with all seams straight and true with no loose threads. Finally, I really like the way this material moves with me during exercise. Whether it's squats or a jog, these shorts bend and twist with me like a second skin with no bunching, pulling, or binding--nice!
Obviously, I really like these shorts and plan to buy more in the near future. Great job and good shorts Gaglg!
