Cotton Chino Freshman Standard Short 7"
The verdict
Fit
Freshman cut implies a straighter, more relaxed fit through the thigh. Standard length (7-inch inseam) suggests a modest inseam; true to size in Reigning Champ's cut.
Quality
Cotton chino is typical of the brand's essentials line. Construction will be competent but not exceptional; expect standard seam finishes.
Price check
Budget-to-mid tier at 118 USD. Fair for basic shorts; you're not overpaying, but you're not getting premium details either.
Best for
The casual wearer or student stocking basics for summer without a big spend.
Care
Standard cotton care: machine wash and tumble dry on low. Will shrink slightly on first wash.

What owners report about Reigning Champ shorts
Owner coverage of Reigning Champ's terry sweat shorts is strongly positive on fabric and construction: reviewers report the terry breathes better than expected for a warm fabric, resists odor through repeated wears, and the flatlock-seamed construction on the brand's terry bottoms holds up wash after wash. The recurring functional complaint is the pockets — the open side and rear pockets let phones and keys slide out easily. Reviewers also note the brand cuts slightly trim and advise sizing up, and that the cotton shrinks a little after machine washing and drying.
- Strengths
- Odor-resistant, breathable terry fabric with flatlock construction that reviewers report holding up through years of wear and washing.
- Watch out for
- Open, unsecured pockets let contents fall out, and the trim cut plus mild shrinkage after drying catch out owners who don't size up.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report Reigning Champ measures slightly smaller than comparable cuts and advise sizing up, especially if you plan to machine-dry.
