Great Material, Not Great Fit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts have a lot of pros: the overall look of them is nice, they are a wonderful lightweight material and the colors are great. They also fit nicely around the waist with an adjustable tie.
The biggest miss for me was the zippered pocket which is just too large (long). It makes that side of the short feel and look awkward on you. It's also a very wide legged short. I get the longer basketball style short, but the width of the legs made me look bigger.
Overall I'll wear them casually but they were too big on me for sport and the zipper is a big turn off.

Good pair of Basketball Shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The DNA 3 Basketball Shorts have proven to be a great option if you're looking for a pair of athletic shorts. The shorts are well made and wick moisture which is typically standard on athletic wear. The fit of the shorts is spot on. I got my normal size and it fit as would be expected. The elastic waist gives enough to not be too tight but holds well enough that they won't fall. With all of the items we carry around now I found that these shorts stayed up great. The fabric is soft but not not very thick. The thickness is nice so that they aren't making you hotter than you may already be if you're active but in direct sun you can see through them slightly. The stripes on the shorts are a nice touch and give a bit of a retro look to them. The only issue I have is with the additional zippered pocket on the right side, which has a pocket inside of it that can hold a medium size phone. It's a nice feature to store pocketed items but seems out of place due to the large shiny zipper. Doing any sort of activity with items in the zippered pocket becomes annoying because of all of the movement of the items in the pocket. I would recommend the DNA 3 Basketball Shorts to anyone looking for a pair of quality shorts that will hold up well but also fashionable enough to be able to wear away from the court.

Perfect for my son
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son wears these shorts to the gym all the time. Not only do they look nice they have a zipper pocket. For my teenage son this is perfect. He can put his headphones in there and not lose them at the gym. Highly recommend.

Great Shorts, Very Comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These basketball shorts are really comfortable and the fabric is a really good mix of not being too heavy but having enough structure to feel like you're still wearing basketball shorts. The waist band is also a good width and just snug enough without feeling constricting. My only quibble is with the extra zipper pocket. I'm not sure why it's there or when I would use it. It seems unnecessary.

Durable, comfortable shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was unsure of what the fabric would feel like before i tried them, but these shorts ended up being very comfortable! Even after wearing them for most of the day. They fit perfect in the size i got. I got a size small and i am 5’6”. My favorite feature of the shorts was definitely the zipper pocket because most basketball shorts don’t have that.
