I've been wearing these Amazon Essentials shorts for a few weeks now, and they've quickly become my favorite pair. The relaxed fit is perfect—not too tight, not too baggy—just right for everything from hitting the gym to lounging at home.

The fabric is a game-changer. It's lightweight and breathable, but still has enough weight to hang properly. No awkward static cling or riding up during workouts. I’ve worn them for running, weightlifting, and even just running errands, and they’ve held up great.

One thing I love is the pockets. They’re deep enough to hold my phone, keys, and AirPods without feeling bulky. Some reviewers mentioned issues with items swinging around, but I haven’t had that problem—maybe because I cinch the drawcord waistband for a snugger fit.

The material isn’t ultra-luxury, but for the price, it’s impressive. They’re soft, quick-drying, and have held up well after multiple washes. If you’re looking for versatile shorts that won’t break the bank, these are a solid pick.
