Ouber Men's Fitted Shorts Bodybuilding Workout Gym Running Tight Lifting Shorts

Given the low cost, I assumed these would be cheaply made but they're not. Perfect reproduction of 1970s gym shorts, they cover everything and show what they're supposed to. Thick solid material, holds its shape really well -- some kind of breathable polyester -- the originals from the old days were all cotton. This feels nice next to the skin, you can wear with undergarments (or not! ;) and everything stays in place. I'm a little scared to wear them outside the house because they make everything look so delicious, I'm worried about people being driven insane. These are sinfully good.

Fit is true to size. Comfortable.

Comfy. Disappointed to find there weren't any pockets though. Most mesh shorts have a supportive "modesty panel" of sort in the front, nothing here. Pic makes it look like they're longer inseam than they actually are. The leg opening edges curl up for some reason. Still comfy and look ok though.

Light weight and nice looking

These are so-so running shorts. They're lightweight, and they dry quickly. They don't have a liner, and I like that about them. I wanted basic shorts. However, there are some things that I dislike. They're on the small side. I almost always buy medium for pants and shirts, and all of my other running shorts are medium. Based on some comments here, I ordered large, and I'm glad I did. It's a good fit, neither too big nor too small, but if I'd ordered my normal size I'd have had to return them. The inseam digs into the crotch. (This is with underwear. The fabric has many ventilation holes and I wouldn't wear these in public without something underneath.) It's not terrible, but the shorts are a little uncomfortable. If I were to push them down further to relieve the crotch tightness, I'd start to feel embarrassed about how much I'm revealing. I have an average build for active person, not super skinny but definitely not overweight. The first inch on the front keeps flipping up. I don't mind showing off some leg, but it looks weird and I have to keep flipping it back down. Be aware that the ventilated fabric does show underwear a little. It's not so noticeable when I'm standing, but when I'm sitting and the shorts lie flat against the underwear, it's obvious that *something* is underneath. Of course, that could just be a different-colored liner as far as any observer can tell. Honestly, this aspect doesn't much bother me, but I mention it for potential buyers who might be embarrassed.

It wasn't what I expected, but I didn't want to bother returning the item because the product was unsatisfactory. get what you pay for! way toooooo small

These are a great fit, and allow for freedom leg movement while shooting hoops. Very comfortable. My wife calls these 'short shorts'. I own many different colors.

Updated review: Back in 2020 I bought these in purple and grey and wore them a few times and then moved on to trying new things. At one point I was seriously thinking of putting them in the Goodwill box. I guess I had taken leave of my senses. I just ordered several types of shorts to try and was looking at these again. I ran to dig the older two out of storage to verify the size. I had actually got the grey in large and the purple in medium. Both fit well but as usual the mediums had a slight edge since that is my normal size. What surprised me was how much I decided I liked them and I decided to try 3 more pairs of these OuBER in white, pink and yellow. What I have decided is I really like this style of short as opposed to ones with more extreme split sides. Those are great for specific workouts and movement but for my needs I only like to walk in them and then hang about the house and the OuBER fitted shorts get that job done with pleasure. They are made with a double layer of mesh which definitely helps with overexposure although in certain light you can make out shapes down there because there is no liner. Going commando in these feels great but I also wear a thong when I want to and that does not really impact the pleasure of wearing these. However, pair them with a brief or thong made of those slippery fabrics and you might go into a trance. People might start snapping their fingers in your face to bring you back from wherever you drifted to. They are not baggy or odd fitting like some shorts can be nor do they hug you tight. Yet, for those guys who don’t mind if people know you have more than a Ken doll, there can be just the right amount of subtle schlong outline without looking intentionally forward. Looks real nice on the butt as well. For more modesty just stick with classic briefs instead of pointy enhancers. What really makes these winners for me is the very stretchy waistband. It really bothers me when I constantly wonder if I should have sized up because of a very snug fit in the waist. It is flat and doesn’t leave marks like some waistbands do. I am very glad I gave them another try. All things considered they are hard to beat for my needs and how I want them to look on me. When I previously reviewed these I used the headline "Decent Shorts." Here is the original review I wrote in 2020: ------------------------------------------------ I strictly use shorts like this for summer wear in and around the house. I'm not a runner or a gym boy so cannot comment on that activity. But these are OK, fit fine, have been through the wash, etc. They are unlined but have 2 layers of mesh. I got two pairs -- the light gray and the purple. I also got a few pairs of the Aimpact brand - very similar shorts but I think the Aimpact have the advantage of having just a wee bit more sensual feel whereas these might actually be a bit better look and fit while being a few bucks less when I bought them. The only thing that might annoy some buyers is the seam around the legs. The way they are sewn at the side slit causes them to fold upwards a bit. And I don't think it's a fluke - both pairs I got do this. If that is the kind of thing that might annoy you then go with the Aimpact ones for a few bucks more. (I wrote a review there as well)
