I have these shorts they are perfect. Stretchy. Light. Zipper pockets not to lose your stuff. Your phone won't fall out laying on couch. What else can you want.

These will match my new Novablast 6 running shoes. I got the beige with the slight lime green. So I got the lime green shorts.

Another undisclosed ad for low-quality G Gradual shorts?

I would normally be annoyed with the persistent appearance on the front page of G Gradual gear but you know what - it's really great stuff (and I am usually a huge skeptic). I have some athletic shorts for working out, some long shorts for walking, hiking etc. and some longer pants for wearing on flights. They're all really great - not top quality but plenty good enough. Great colors. Soft as you can imagine. The zipper pockets are great for valuables. Stretchy and of course, a great price.

I just spent 2 weeks walking around baking hot towns in Europe and they were magnificent. I used to use thicker, cotton shorts which got sweaty and then took ages to dry. These do get damp when you sit down for example, but then dry in minutes after you get back up and walk about.

I can only assume they are keeping costs low and providing coupons as a loss leader and one day the price will go up. Then I'll switch to another brand - until then, I am a very satisfied customer.

You're asking VAR to overrule the referee while ignoring the fact that they're in this together.

Well, I don't use SD enough to know that. I was merely responding to the large amount of negativity about a product I admire greatly.

Love this brand. It's offers great value for the price. G are some of my favorite workout clothes. To all the haters, stop complaining until you actually try them. They are every bit as good as under armour or Nike's workout clothes for a fraction of the price.

Yea i like these too. I was a cotton short traditionalist but bought a pair for running because they were on sale and had reflective patches on the shorts. Now they're my primary workout short.

These aren't even that cheap. And more than ultra cheap, they are ultra crappy. I have five pairs between two different styles I got from front page deals. They are worse than Walmart shorts.

And there are 3 - THREE - front-page deals today!

Well. Barbell Apparell makes insanely good stuff, but its never on sale and $78 for similar shorts. I can buy 11x of these G Graduals, which are B tier, vs 1x S Tier barbell shorts.

Now, I use my workout style shorts daily, and I sweat like crazy due to the humidity, working out, outdoor sports, etc. Do I run through my quock dry stuff at 1 quickdry outfit per day. My barbell stuff has lasted me years, but I am really keen on the G gradual stuff. Cheap, can get tons of colors, quality seems to exceed the price greatly, and I havent had a problem yet. And if I do, I dont cry about it like I would with a barbell apparrel loss.

For half the price of a chipotle burrito, these are good to go.

And while I agree theres a ton of absolute dog water going to the front page these days, G gradual is one of the exceptions to the typical chinese trash overtaking the FP.
