WePlay Sports Classic Coach Shorts

These shorts are pretty much like the original Bike shorts. The only difference seems to be that they are a little bit longer but other than that, they seem to be high quality "coaches shorts".

I've given up on my search for the Bike shorts I used to wear. Just looking for the term "Bike Shorts" on the search engine. and I i was inundated with spandex shorts. The Bike brand is long gone. So, I ordered a pair from WePlay. They were close to the original ones I wore several decades ago, except I thought they were a little longer than the ones I was familiar with. So, I phoned and spoke with one of their reps about the length. She explained that the original Bike shorts were indeed several inches shorter, maybe 6". But as mens preference in shorts increased in length, Bike also extended their length as well before their demise. So, when WePlay opted to duplicate the shorts, they decided to stick with the current, fashionable length. That way guys who want the shorter length can easily have them altered to suit their tastes, and those that prefer the longer length can be satisfied, as well. Besides, what choice did I have? Thank God I have something that resembles the shorts I played & coached with. See you at the Pickleball Court!

Inseam much longer than originals and sizes smaller than originals...took two tries to get correct size to fit and will still have to make alterations...

sizing seems to be the biggest issue. The small is listed 30/32. The medium 34/36. We need a 34 and the medium measures 35. The legs are wide, not at all like the vintage coaches shorts I was trying to duplicate. Cost of return shipping prohibits taking a chance on the smaller size.

The classic coach shorts are first class. My son teaches PE and he praises the shorts. They are comfortable and hold up well.
