Review:
I actually own two of these shorts, the grey/black colorway and the black/yellow colorway depicted in the picture above. I bought two because I liked the first one so much that I had to get another style.
The shorts are very light and comfortable. They are good for both on the court and for casual wear. The material is 100% polyester and dries very quickly. You could play ball in these two days in a row simply by letting them air dry, something I have done (but the shorts do start to smell so don't wear them TOO many times without washing).
My favorite aspect about these shorts is the two large pockets. Seriously, I think every pair of basketball shorts should have pockets, for things like your keys, cell phone, etc. It would be nice to have zippers on the shorts but I can see how zippers would decrease performance somewhat. Thankfully the pockets on these shorts aren't noticable when playing ball and so are a very functional and practical feature.
