baleaf Men's 3” Running Shorts Gym Quick Dry Athletic Workout Pocket Lightweight Brief

Arrived in perfect condition.

Yep, super light weight and quick drying...exactly what I was looking for. When it's hot out, these are going to be my default summer shorts. A run followed by a stop at the pool, rinse off with the shower there and a quick dip for a couple laps...perfect morning run.Size: I wear size 31 generally. The Small fit me really well. I've had not problems with it riding up or rubbing oddly. I do use them commando, in case that comes into play with the fit.Material: really thin and light-weight. I needed that, getting hot for my morning runs, so need as light as I can. If anyone is concerned about the longevity of the material...honestly, I don't care about that. With the cost of going to my local sport stores and buying shorts, I'd rather buy a replacement pair of these at the lower price and probably still come in as spending less.When I ordered these, I had just ordered another pair on amazon that was cheaper, out of China and took 3 weeks to arrive. They were both a gamble, of course. The cheaper pair are useless for me, size was crazy, fit was bad for me, now they are sleeping shorts for my wife :)The reviews on Baleaf were really helpful when I came across their products, then some research lead me to this particular pair that seemed to fit the bill for me, so I gave them a shot.I'm so glad I did, because after this review, I'm ordering another pair, maybe check out one of their other products to try out, too.I recommend these totally! I honestly do love them, perfect for what I was looking for.

Love them. Wish they had pockets

Not water repellent. Any water drops become quickly obvious with these, like washing your hands in a slashy sink then looking down for it to look like you just urinated yourself.Otherwise they look great.

I've run for recreation and exercise 30-40 km/week for over 20 years and these are my favorite pair of running shorts ever.This is the best pair of running shorts with a liner I've had for chafing (i.e. I haven't experience any with them). They are lightweight with great ventilation and I just don't notice them. The liner doesn't initially feel all that supportive (relative to others) but, for me, the lack of any noticeable movement or chafing after a 20k is invaluable and unique to this short. The liner is magic.My one knock is that their is one little interior flap-style pocket. For my distances, I don't typically need to carry anything so it isn't an issue for me. My purchase was labeled> BALEAF Men's 7" Running Shorts with Mesh Liner Zipper Pocket for Athletic Workout Gymbut the pocket is not a zipper. I'll remove half a star and then add half back for the magic liner.I've only had them a year (first pair) but their are no signs of wear (~100+ hours of use, ~30 wash cycles). The light weight is nice and the price is excellent.Each time I needed a new running short, I've tried a new brand or style. From now on, I'll be replacing these with like and hope the design doesn't change.

Three stars, who is this guy, what does he know?Let's get real here, these are $20 split shorts from China. How do they compare to my Brooks or New Balance split short? They don't. They're $20 shorts from china.Here's the real info: For $20, they are fantastic. I'll do most of my training runs in these and will love doing it. The listing says they have a pocket, which technically they do; but it's a tiny little mesh pocket inside the mesh lining the isn't big enough to hold a standard size GU. I'll be fine with this, I can keep all my junk in handhelds.Size:I ordered two pairs, a grey pair in small and a white pair in medium, since I didn't know which size I would end up wearing. For reference I am 70" tall, 155lbs, and can jam 1 or 2 fingers between the waistband on 32" waist pants. The size small fit me perfect, the medium are too big. Do with that information what you will.Pros:-They are way cheaper than name brand split shorts and do the exact same job of keeping me from exposing myself when I'm jogging through my neighborhood.-Mesh liner on the inside has the right balance between tight enough and not too tight to keep my garbage from flopping, but not losing circulation-there's a mesh bit on the sides that may or may-not help with airflow. The jury is still out on this one, but even if it's just placebo effect, I like it.Cons:-For split shorts they are pretty heavy. I don't have a scale to weight them, but compared to my Brooks split shorts, they are way heavier. I'm not a professional runner (if I was I wouldn't be buying these) so I doubt the few extra grams will slow me down enough to keep me from a podium; but they were just heavier than I expected.- The advertised pocket is just a tiny little mesh pocket as previously mentioned. You could put some loose change for the phone booth, or one single key (without a keyring) in it, but not much more. It'll be rubbing up against your waist and pubic area once it's in there too, so you'll probably get a blister in a very uncomfortable spot if you don't plan your pocket use out wisely.Overall impression:I'll probably buy a few more pairs because I don't like shelling out $50 for a bit of fabric to cover my nethers when $20 will do the job the same. Do you get more with Name brand? Yeah, maybe; but I'm not picky and I'll adapt to what I have. A pocket that fits a GU would be kinda nice.

- still in great condition after a year and I wear them all the time at gym

Great value for money. Functions as described. Great quality. Perfect fit. Very comfortable.
