Love these athletic shorts for my son

This is a great set of athletic shorts! I’m a big fan of the red white and blue design - it’s very cool and funky and my 5 year old son likes it too. They have pockets and a draw string which are a must for my boy. These are just as good as quality as name brand pairs he has. The small fits true to size on my large 5 year old.

Great 2 pack of athletic shorts

We ordered these shorts in a size XXL. They fit great. They have a nice elastic waistband that sits comfortably on the waist and stays in place. The length of them is perfect. The colors are neutral and they pair nicely with a wide variety of shirts. They're lightweight and breathable. The material is comfortable on the skin. Great athletic shorts and perfect for daily wearing. My son loves them.

Great set of boys shorts.

These were the perfect shorts for my kid. My child is 6 years old and wears a size small 6/7 as well as a 5t sometimes. These shorts fit really well. I like the quality and how lightweight they are for summer. My kid is very athletic and prefers to wear these shorts all the time. I love the affordability and the flexibility for outfits

Nice shorts

Ordered a set of blue ones to try for size, and they fit great. The material is very soft and comfortable. Size 14/16 is the same as Men's small. I am 5'6" tall and weigh 125 lbs. These fit perfectly, not too short, not too long, and the waist is good too.

Great shorts!

These shorts arrived so fast! Walmart surprises me with their speed. The material is silky and so soft to the touch. The colors are just like the online photos. It appears to be well made and should lasts through out the summer. It has pockets for my grandson to put his little toy or his snacks. A 1-inch slits at the bottom of the short. It’s better looking than expected. Very happy purchase.

Good value for comfortable shorts

My grandson love these shorts!! True to size. Soft fabric. Easy fit. I bought 3 sets so he would have a pair for each day for school. The only downside is that they are a fabric that may snag but for the price they work!

Nice shots

These are very nice shorts, however, the size guide is a little off. I purchased a 10/12 size shorts for my nine year-old. Which I would have better bought a 8/9 size for him instead I would highly suggest to buy one size smaller, and what you need. They're a little bit too long.

I bought the 2 black ones. These shorts run really big! My grandsons wear 10/12 and 14/16 and they are so oversized. I am going to keep them because eventually they will be able to wear them. I do think they are good quality but they are oversized.

Too big

My kid is a thin tall 11 yr old who wears 10-12 but theses are too big and not as short compared to the picture. I think length is fine but he prefers short.

Not a practical design at all.

The length and fit are perfect. Really loved these shorts for my son until I noticed the pockets are mesh see through and you can literally see his boxers through the pockets with him just standing normal. Very odd design and not functional at all. He won't be able to wear them out in public with this feature. Won't be posting a picture of my child's underwear showing. so no picture, just take my word!
