Very pleased, comfy and lightweight

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 September 2021

Pleasantly surprised by these. Good balance of lightweight but thick enough.
String ties on the inside which I like. String does feel a bit cheap, but honestly they fit well enough that I find I don’t tie them up.
Good fit on the thighs. I think I have quite large thighs for a medium build bloke, and these give the right balance of a bit of room around the legs and gentleman region without being overly flappy.
Mild warning, they are just about tight enough to see a gentleman’s ‘outline’ if that’s something that worries you.
They’ve done a first and second wash nicely, but can’t comment on longevity yet.
Overall very satisfied, probably going to get a few more pairs of these continue to wash well.

Only good for sleeping.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 June 2017

I ordered the XL and honestly, they still feel too small. I'm not massively overweight (just a bit of extra podge through laziness and lack of exercise). And the way these are made, they're weirdly shaped. Like there isn't enough material on any one part of them. It makes your gentleman bulge out and they're very tight around the legs. So weird. Will not be buying them again, that's for sure.

Keeping hold of them for sleeping with but I would not wear these outside. They look ridiculous.

Great for the hot weather

I do not usually wear shorts but needed them because of the recent hot weather. I looked at what was on the Amazon website and picked these because of the price and the material they were made from. they are very comfortable to wear and fit well. Just what I needed to stay cool.

Just what I wanted!

I know these are mens, but I bought these for myself (Size 8-10 female!) because my boyfriends joggers are so comfy!
I bought size small in black and light grey and they are on the snug side but comfy. I like that they are cotton and lightweight without chunky drawstrings. Perfect for lounging around on weekend mornings:)

Well made and warm according to my son soft on his skin washes easily , he prefers to dry it naturally as he does not like to tumble dry his good clothes , Hopefully at 18 he has learned to look after his clothes and possessions

Too Small / Not Comfy but for the price can you really complain?

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 July 2017

Not a great purchase to be honest.

The product description says: 80% Cotton, 20% Polyester. Yet the item I received seems more like 20% cotton as the feel of them is slightly rough/scratchy. They aren't very comfy.

I am a slim guy who is normally a 30" waist. I saw other reviewers complain the sizes were a little on the small side, but considering I always have to go for smaller items when clothes shopping anyway I took no notice and ordered Small. However SMALL is really XS for a mens product in my opinion. I cant even fit my iPhone 6S or my hands in the pockets fully.

They do fit my waist but they are very tight.

Due to all of the above I would not order again, however for £6.27 you cant really complain much.

Just go to Tesco.

They may be cheap, but they look cheap as well. Drawstring comes out of a single, partly unstitched hole: which makes the shorts difficult to unknot, and of dubious longevity. Pockets aren't big enough to fit a phone. Hem is deformed-looking because the leg inseam is too short for the outseam. And "lightweight" is an understatement.

If this is authentic Fruit of the Loom, then Fruit of the Loom kind of sucks.

OK shorts

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 June 2020

Size: XLColour: BlackVerified Purchase

These shorts don’t really feel like value for money - I purchased these and a different pair for my son at the same time for roughly the same price and these feel very skinny and not very soft. They will be fine but are only OK as a purchase rather than a good purchase.

VERY COMFORTABLE - EXCELLENT BRUSHED COTTON

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 December 2021

Size: XLColour: Deep NavyVerified Purchase

I liked this. A little more expensive than some cotton lounge-shorts, but worth every penny. Fits very well with elastic waistband and tie-up to tighten if required. This is my repeat purchase.

Comfortable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 September 2021

Size: XXLColour: BlackVerified Purchase

These shorts have a slightly coarse texture. They are stretchy and very comfortable. The waist elastic is wide and doesn't cut into the skin. There is a drawstring for additional support. Plenty of room in the crotch, they don't bunch up when seated.
