Shorts
The verdict
A very cheap basic short; fine as a low-stakes layering or lounge piece, not a serious training short.
Fit
Likely a snug, soft-knit cut typical of Gymshark's Vital line; true to size but close-fitting through the hip.
Quality
At under $14 this is priced well below Gymshark's usual shorts range — expect thin, basic fabric and construction, adequate for light wear but not durable under heavy training.
Is the price fair?
Genuinely a budget price for the category; fair if expectations match the price, but don't expect training-grade durability.
Best for
Casual, low-intensity wear or layering rather than serious workouts.
Care
Hand wash or gentle cycle cold given the thin, budget-grade fabric.
