I ordered one e pair at first and they were so good I ordered a couple more. They are super lightweight, breathable and non-restrictive in movement. I use them with compression pants underneath and honestly it feels like I'm just wearing the compression pants. They got zipper pockets for holding phone securely while listening to music at gym. The waist feels secure and comfortable and has strings to tighten up. For me they are my go to shorts for the gym.
