I bought a couple of pairs of these for my sons to run with me. I like the cut and size--they are cut like running shorts, perhaps just a tad longer than some adult running shorts which I liked. I think they have been very comfortable and in the hot weather, shorter running style shorts are MUCH better to run in than the knee-length basketball style athletic shorts. My only complaint is that the fabric is a bit thick. I would like some kids running shorts in a lighter, more wicking fabric. These are the same fabric you would find in the basketball style athletic shorts. But my kids have liked them a lot and the sizing is right on.

The run small but worked for my son this year. He is 5'3 85lbs, the length is mid thigh. We got a large

It is good for the price. Keep in mind that they are somewhat short, but overall they are good.

Light and breathable.
