Best Shorts for Men of 2025

"I have 10 pairs of these shorts and absolutely love them. They look great, fit perfectly, and are well-constructed. They're durable and suitable for everything from working out to lounging. Unlike many light shorts, these are light enough to stay cool yet heavy enough to avoid static cling. I'll definitely be purchasing more in different colors."

"At 5'9" and 175 lbs with a 39” waist, the relaxed Medium fit is perfect for me – roomy without being baggy, and they sit comfortably below my waist. I've had these shorts since 2021, and they've held up impressively through countless washes and wears. The lightweight, moisture-wicking fabric keeps me cool and dry, making them great for workouts or just hanging out. The 8” inseam and adjustable waistband provide a secure yet comfortable fit. They’re well worth it for their quality and versatility!"

The slightly stretchy material makes them perfect for various activities, and they look smart with a nice shirt. So far, they are my new go-to shorts, replacing my denim ones."

"These shorts are probably the most comfortable I've ever owned. Due to the spandex in the material, I had to buy a size 1 inch smaller, which resulted in a perfect fit. They look great, don't wrinkle easily, and have big deep front pockets. I believe they are priced correctly and would purchase more without hesitation."

"I've bought multiple pairs of these shorts, and they are simply amazing! The fit and quality are great, and I was impressed with how quickly they arrived. At such a good price, I would definitely buy again!"

These shorts are versatile enough for any occasion, and I highly recommend them for their comfort and style."

"I got a pair of black cargo shorts, and they are an excellent value. The fit is just right, and the spacious pockets easily carry my essentials without being bulky.

I’m very satisfied and would consider purchasing again for their comfort and functionality."

"I now own four pairs of these shorts in different colors. They all fit perfectly according to the sizing chart. My first pair, bought a year ago, still looks great after many washes. They are well made and last long, which is why I will keep buying them. The price is decent for the quality offered, making them a fantastic choice for anyone."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the durability of these shorts, especially given the price. After wearing them for 20 days, they still look great without any stains or tears. I also appreciate the cargo pockets for added functionality. The only thing I’d prefer is if the drawstrings were sealed differently, but overall, I’m very satisfied and would buy more."

"I opted for these shorts instead of pricey specialty store options, and I couldn't be happier. The quality and fit exceeded my expectations. With lots of pockets, I can carry my essentials without worry, and the stretchy fabric allows for comfortable movement. Plus, the range of colors available is impressive!"

"These shorts are a great blend of comfort and style. They look good enough for casual outings while feeling like athletic wear. I initially ordered a Large, but I found I preferred the Medium for a more fitted look. The deep pockets are a bonus; I can carry everything I need without it falling out. I plan to buy more colors as the summer progresses!"

"I absolutely love these shorts. I've purchased six pairs! I was done with baggy cargo shorts; these look smart and adult-like. They fit me perfectly at 5'8", 170 lbs, wearing a 34 waist. I did notice some variation in material among colors, with the black being a bit heavier. My only issue is that I can't seem to find the hidden zipper pocket mentioned in the description."

"These shorts are very comfortable and well-made. The deep side pockets are perfect for my keys and wallet. After several washes, they hold their shape with no fraying. They make for a great summer staple."

"I appreciate the quality of these shorts. My husband wears a 46" waist, and they fit him nicely. The length is just right, about 3 inches above the knee. The placement of the front belt loops is ideal for him, eliminating the need for constant adjustments. The color options are versatile and go well with many of his shirts."

"At this stage in my life, I prioritize fit and comfort over brand names, and these Amazon Essentials golf shorts deliver. They have a perfect fit with just the right stretch.

For the price, they are an amazing deal, and I've made them a wardrobe staple!"

"I bought the Amazon Essentials Gold Shorts, and I'm thrilled with my choice! These shorts are a dream – they look great and feel fantastic. The vibrant gold color adds style to any outfit, making me feel confident whether I'm relaxing at home or out with friends. They're incredibly comfortable, with soft, lightweight fabric perfect for warm days. I've worn them numerous times already and plan to get more. I highly recommend these shorts!"

"I ordered two pairs of these shorts, hoping they'd fit well, and I was pleasantly surprised! The waist and length are just right. Although I haven't worn them out yet, the material feels like it has just enough stretch and the light to medium weight seems perfect for warm days. The rubberized bands in the waistband should help keep my shirt tucked in, which is something I struggle with. Overall, I think these shorts are a great value and definitely recommend trying them!"

"I find these shorts very comfortable and easy to wear. The fit is just right, and I appreciate the breathable cotton material."

"I bought these for my boyfriend, and he really appreciates the quality, fit, and lightweight but durable material. He particularly loves the pockets and the length of the shorts. Although he's not a huge fan of the velcro closures on the back pockets, he's okay with it and wants more in different colors. I've already ordered two colors for him!"

"I found the cargo shorts to be comfortable and true to size. They offer plenty of storage with all the pockets, and I sometimes forget where I put things! They are classic Wrangler quality and I plan to order more in the future."

"I think these shorts are decent but the side pockets are a bit small for my needs. If you carry a cell phone, you can fit it sideways in one of the small pockets, but it gets uncomfortable. They work fine for smaller items like keys or change."

"I purchased these shorts due to the positive reviews and affordable price. I was delighted to discover they fit comfortably and have held up well after many washes, looking like new. A real value for the price, and I'll definitely buy them again."

"After a long search for secure back pockets, I decided to try these Amazon brand shorts. The stitching quality impressed me, and they felt well-made. Although I almost returned them due to the inseam length, they became comfortable after a few hours. I appreciate the affordable price and plan to buy more to replace my worn-out shorts."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the softness and comfort of these shorts. The finish inside is nicely done, and they wash well without wrinkles. I initially thought the button stitching was loose, but after weeks of use, it's still intact. I've switched from wearing Carhartt to these shorts, as they are now my favorite!"
