Nice shorts...not especially thick, and very very short!  I was wondering if they'd be too big, but they're actually sized on the small side. The color is a nice dark khaki, so it's not for those who like to bright splashy workout wear. They're fine for the gym if you wear shorts-and-a-tee to classes, like I do: they're very comfortable and let you move easily.  They're even better if you wear shorts over tights, like some people in the gym.  The legs are fairly wide so depending on your own shape, they may look like the model's ... or not.
