I purchased these shorts for my father, a former marine. Upon opening the shorts we realized that they are much more like a bathing suit than shorts, the material is very similar to the nylon material used for bathing suits. My father who is about 6'2 tried them on an we all laughed because they were sooo short, he would have be the laughing stock of the local gym he belongs to. Needless to say I returned them and received a refund no problem.
