“These shorts are great. I love the way they fit and the way they look. The built-in liner can bunch up when doing certain things (walking lunges can cause this for me), but that's pretty typical.
My problem is they do not do well in the pool. They dry okay, but they will stay damp for a good while after getting out of the water. They don't seem to hold up to chlorine at all. I've worn mine to the pool 3 or 4 times and they already have weird fading in places. They don't fade evenly, but, rather, fade in a "distressed" sort of pattern that i think has to do with drying off with a towel after getting out of the pool (and you HAVE to dry them with a towel, unless you have an hour to lie in the sun to let them dry out without assistance). As a result, my favorite pair now look pretty ratty, even though they aren't very old and even after just a few dips in the pool.
I've also worn them in the ocean (but only once or twice), and that doesn't seem to mess with the look (though they still take awhile to dry).
I'd buy them again for regular/workout wear, but not for swimming. I probably won't replace the pair that don't look great anymore, but I probably won't wear them often, either.”
