Adidas Essex Shorts - Tennis September 19, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
First found these shorts back in Alexandria, VA in 2005. A local tennis shop carries them for $35 a pair. Seemed kind of high, so I checked Amazon.com
It seems hard to find a good pair of tennis shorts without paying a lot of $$$, but these are very well made. Deep pockets will hold two balls easily, that won't pop out during serves. While they do not have a liner for runners, you need to wear some type of underwear with these, otherwise other balls start flying. :( :(
The inseam isn't too long which I appreciate. Some shorts hang below my knees and I'm 5'9" with a 33" waist. I think they run a little tight in the waist, slightly loose on the legs. Seems the waist could have been a little larger, but the legs fit nicely.
I have both one pair of medium and three pair of large shorts. I think the medium fit folks with a 31" waist better than a 33" waist. If you are 34 Waist don't try to pry yourself into a medium. The waist is simply too tight :(
Great shorts! June 25, 2006 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
My husband finds them really nice and cool. The fabric is light and has a smooth texture. The length is perfect, the shorts he had before were the classic tennis 'length' which was too short but these are just fine.
