What owners report about Aviator Nation shorts

Third-party coverage of this line runs mostly through the brand's fleece pieces broadly, which its sweat shorts share. Reviews are polarized: owners praise how soft and comfortable the cotton-poly-rayon fleece feels and note the pieces are sewn in the USA, but a recurring complaint is that the fabric can feel thin for what the brand charges. Reviewers also flag defects, dye bleed and shrinkage in the wash, and a frustrating exchange policy when something goes wrong.

Strengths: Owners consistently report the fleece is exceptionally soft and comfortable from first wear, with the colors and retro stripes drawing compliments.
Watch out for: Recurring complaints are thin-feeling fabric relative to the high price, dye bleed and shrinkage in the wash, and a difficult exchange process.
Sizing: Fit varies by style — reviewers report pieces running both large and snug — and several choose to size up for a roomier fit.
