G Gradual 3" Running Shorts for Men Lightweight Workout Gym Athletic Shorts

Bought these while trying to find a suitable replacement for a pair of Adidas Climalites that I have loved, but are sadly not made anymore. These are an extremely similar construction, but with a slightly shorter leg. I have many pairs of these now. I’m not much of a runner, but I do pool cardio laps 1-2 times a week. I’m a powerlifter and failed crossfitter; the years of repeated injuries have made the pool a godsend for recovery and low-impact cardio. These are the best trunks I have ever used in the pool, even though this isn’t how they are marketed. The fit is amazing, the bikini shaped liner is perfect for control of the bits, and the material is excellent in the water. I bought a variety of darker colors and they are still opaque when wet, so nobody gets an unwanted sneak peek of the goods. I can’t vouch for the lighter colors as I have not worn them. The color variety of the lineup is awesome, hopefully they add more interesting dark colors. These are killer for the price, especially on Lightning Deal. The fit is awesome if you’re at all athletic, and I honestly feel like I look damn good in these. This is a step for me as I have pretty serious body dysmorphia, but I know I am actually pretty jacked and these really suit a weightlifter type body. If you’re military, these are the ranger shorts but better. You need these in your life. So far they are holding up well, have no discoloration from the pool, and dry pretty fast. I have not worn them to the beach yet as it’s still cold here, but I would feel totally comfortable doing that. One request: G Gradual, please make these in 5” inseams! Don’t change anything else about them, just add that additional version to the lineup. Don’t stop making the 3” versions, make both. PLEASE!!! Those would probably be the most versatile trunks out there for mixed use. You make that length in other materials, but we need this design in 5” too.

Finally: Running shorts that check all the boxes. They're light. They're super comfortable. They include a snug and comfy inner liner (which is black, which I like). They feature an internal drop pocket for your keys. They're shorts that are *short* and don't hang down to your knees or slap against your thighs when you run. They feature a big, soft, wide waistband with generous elastic in it. So they fit to size and stay in place snugly; you don't even need the included drawstring, although that's a nice feature. The big waistband, however, is also a drawback, in that it's over an inch tall, and hugs your waist like a band of tape. In other words, whereas the shorts keep you cool, the waistband gets hot. So I'd deduct half a star for that drawback; still, these are great running shorts, and a good value for the price. I can recommend them confidently.

If you exercise or swim, these shorts are perfect because a 3 inch inseam will not hang up on your legs nor will they touch the rim of a public toilet wiping other men's pee off it like most men's shorts today do. The price is decent, fit is descent and the quality of material is good. It's all I wear now in the summer and they show my tanned legs from top to bottom. Only problem I find if you want to call it a problem is these shorts looking at a lot of women's eyes. Or maybe women's eyes are looking at them, either way they can be a distraction to women if you take care of yourself and wear these. I used to wear NIKE running shorts but they were more than twice the cost and the fit of NIKE was a bit too snug, these shorts are perfect for everyday wear when its warm out. It would be nice if G Gradual made a version of these with at least one zippered pocket. A zippered pocket could be either in the traditional location or even place it just inside the waist ban in front for things like car keys and money. I also have their 3 inch shorts with zippered pockets which I also like, those are thicker which is better for putting a cell phone in the pocket due to weight of the phone. Not sure if a heavy phone can be placed in these but a zippered pocket for other items would be nice but only as a different version as I like these the way they are too with a small tuck pocket inside for my car key fob. The G Gradual logo sort of looks like a military Sergeant patch which is cool. I just hope they don't eventually try to make them cheaper quality as they are good they way they are. I now have 30 pair and may buy more if they gave me a discount.

Good quality at 1/3rd the price of the top brands. Fit as expected. Liner was comfortable and unobtrusive. Felt like wearing nothing.

Size L fit me, 5’10” and 185 lbs, just right. They’re well cut. [It’s surprising how something seemingly dimple like a pair of shorts can have one design detail wrong and they just don’t fit well.] Fabric is indeed super soft, super light; much softer than Pudolla. For people surprised that a 3” inseam turns out to actually be…short, I don’t know what to say. It’s only three inches. For running not golf. Price is good ($15 right now). These are an excellent value. I just ordered another pair. PS: I just cut out the liner. Too confining for me.

Love the color of this, really nice material, this company definitely made these shorts for training Great fit and is accommodating for the thicker thighs which comes along from doing multiple forms of fitness I do a lot of military workouts and crossfit and I will definitely buy these again

Comfortable and super light, perfect for very hot weather. However, they tend to rub between the thighs during longer runs. Great for gym or casual wear, but not the best for distance running.

These running shorts are the perfect length, made of a great material, dry quickly, and feel great! I highly recommend

Produto excelente,material leve qualidade surreal!

Comfortable shorts!.I went one size down as per reviews.It really fits me well.
