Gotta agree with retired on this one...it's convienent from the house to the gym to have them under your warm ups, but they are overall snug around the waist. I understand the whole daydreaming thing, but after the first hour wearing them around the house, I remembered that it was winter and about 30F degrees outside I actually got my first pair because our gym's MT "uniform" consists of a tee shirt with the gym logo on the front/"thai-boxing" on the back and a pair of cotton shorts. Cotton shorts shrink in the wash and hold too much sweat. The only other shorts our instructor will let us wear to class are MT shorts. Otherwise, I've seen basketball shorts on clearance for 5 bucks that are just as comfortable as the MT shorts (if not moreso).

Anyway, my favorite shorts that I own are:

Very comfortable...the other two I got from
www.thaismai-usa.com (the black ones that they have on sale and the blue with yellow lettering). The blue ones are OK (but I like the Fairtex cut better). With the lettering on the black ones being thick and one solid block, it's a little uncomfortable and you can really tell that the lettering is there during a workout...just stuff to look for when shopping
