BALENNZBoy's 5-Pack Athletic Shorts Kids Youth Quick Dry Active Performance Basketball Shorts with Pockets Elastic Waistband

Love the shorts, no complaints aside from the slightly confusing size chart. My son typically wears a boys youth medium (8) in sweatpants and shorts (we get most of his bottoms from the boys section in Wal-Mart). They've been getting a little tight on him, so I wanted to get him some bigger shorts for the summer that did fit him. Now, I likely would have gone ahead and ordered a Large before reading the reviews, but they had me a bit confused. Some say the shorts run big, a few others said they run small, etc.. I checked the size chart, and it stated that their Mediums would fit like a size 10-12, which would be a Large (10-12) in the bottoms that we usually buy for my son. After a day or 2 of thinking it over, I eventually decided to go with Medium instead of Large, as I really thought the Larges would end up being way too big and have to be returned. The waistband on the Mediums ended up being almost literally the exact same size as his old size Medium (8) sweatpants, the ones he's growing out of. Good thing, in our case, that he's really only outgrowing his old pants in length and not so much in the waist. Thankfully the new shorts do fit his waist well, but they leave no room for growth, so this is likely the only summer that they'll ever see. I'm OK with that considering the price and quality. The shorts are plenty long for him reaching right at his knees. Lengthwise, I'm glad I didn't get Large because the size chart states that the length for those are 1 inch longer than the Mediums, and I'm not so sure they'd have looked good a whole inch past his knees. However, I do wish the Mediums had just a little more room in the waist. Overall, I'm happy with the shorts. They have pockets, nice, breathable and very soft material, not so thin that you can see through them, but thin enough that they'll be great for summer. I would purchase these again.MY ADVICE FOR THE SIZE CHART - don't pay attention to the actual size labels, like Small, Med, or Large. Use the measurements! I did measure the waist on them when they arrived, and the sizing is definitely accurate when using the measurements. Don't compare a size Small that you already have to a size Small in these shorts, as I feel like there's a good chance that they won't be the same. Don't use the number sizes, either (such as 8 or 10-12). Use the measurements if you feel unsure.

Fits true to size! My son loves them! They hold up in the washer and his typical boy stuff playing outside! And not to mention worth the money!

I bought these for my 13 year old for middle school PE. Be sure to check the size chart as they run large, but the size chart was accurate for him. They are decent quality. They have held up to weekly use and have washed well. He has found them comfortable. They are nice and thick. Not see through at all.

My son said they’re really comfortable, and wash great. He used these for football practice and now wrestling practice and get washed a lot. So they have held up pretty good.

Great quality shorts and fit well!

Slick and silky , was hoping more of a cottony feel but didn’t look at the material, so that’s my fault I only looked at the picture. I bought smalls for my kid that’s a size 7 and they’re more like 8/10 and I got mediums for my size 10 boy and they’re more like 12’s. They’ll grow into them but still baggy loose fitting right now.Some of the reviews said they ran small but these are big and my boys are regular size.

Great quality and value! True to size! These were perfect for my sons basketball and recreational use!

I ordered a size small in these shorts because the size guide stated that a small was the equivalent of a US boys size 8. We received the shorts and I was super impressed with how soft they felt and they seemed to be nicely made. My 9 yr old son has level 3 Autism so the way clothing feels can really bother him sometimes. He absolutely loves how soft and silky these shorts are so that was a win. The problem was with the sizing. The shorts seemed to fit him small even though he wears a size 8 in all other pants/shorts and they're usually a lil big on him in the waist but fit in length. Due to this we normally have to stick with pants/shorts that are adjustable. He's on the smaller size for his age, as of a week before me leaving this review he weighed 56lbs and is 52in tall. Based on the measurements listed in the sizing guide he should fit the size small that's listed as a US size 8. My son can't stand the way tags feel so when I went to remove the tags from all the shorts I realized that it said they were a size small 7 and not a size small 8 as listed in the size guide. It's really disappointing that that they have the sizing listed wrong because now we're stuck with shorts that he won't be able to wear for very long. Most of his shorts that I bought these to replace were size 7s. With inflation right now, I can't just be wasting $40 on clothes that wont last the summer. I don't know how the other sizes are but just beware, if you need a size 8 and your child's measurements fall with in the range listed for a size 8 according to their sizing chart, don't order a small. No clue what size their extra small would be but an extra small clearly isn't a size 7 like they have listed if the small I received was a size 7. Other than the sizing problem, the shorts are great. They're made well and feel like they would be super comfy if they just fit correctly.
