  5. Craaazy Good Shorts

    Dan Jacobs

    What size did you buy? L

    These shorts are craaazy, like the best I have worn to the gym. Very comfy, nice inner pant means I can workout without having sweaty underwear, talking of sweaty… I didn’t quite get this brands ‘wear more, wash less’ but I do now. I wore my shorts all week in the gym and they didn’t smell, not 1 whiff. I know it sounds mad but whatever you do to make this happen it’s a good thing. If the same on your t shirts I’ll buy one of those too.
    Im a 34 waist and bought a Large, the fit is nice.
    I like the pockets too as they have zips

  8. best shorts on the market

    Ian Stevens

    What size did you buy? M

    I own these shorts in every colour because they are just incredibly comfy while also looking great.
    I’ve found wearing them without boxers offers maximum comfort but are just as nice with them on also but regardless they never seem to smell.
    From round the house to doing sports to gym sessions these shorts are on me any chance I get. The Zip pockets are ideal for keeping your belongings safe while you wear them doing activity’s.
    The Oxblood is my favourite colour out of the three however I wear the black the most as they go with everything.
    I’m a 32 waist and bought a M, the elastic waist makes for a super comfy fit

  13. Great shorts

    James Robertson

    What size did you buy? L

    How have I not heard of this brand before, they make amazing kit especially the shorts and t shirts which I’ve bought.
    These shorts tick all of the boxes, great value compared to the cheap rubbish that’s out there. Lovely material, fit is so nice. Lovely idea to put zips on the pockets.
    The inner pant is a good idea also, very comfortable for running and gym sessions.

  16. Great shorts, but need more colours

    Bailey

    What size did you buy? M

    I rate these shorts highly. The eco friendly material is nice, I like they aren’t made in China like every other brands are. The quality is great, just need to make more in different colours, like Blue, dark green.
    These are my go to’s currently for gym work outs and football. Side pockets with zips come in handy 👍🏼👍🏼
