The verdict
Fit
Standard fit through the hips and thighs, relaxed without excess slouch. Seven-inch inseam suits most frame sizes; expect a modern fit that sits at or just above the knee.
Quality
Reigning Champ's midweight terry is durable and holds its structure through washing. Typical of the brand's accessible athletic-basics line—solid seaming and consistent weight across garments.
Is the price fair?
At 98 USD, this is mid-market for basic athletic shorts. The brand's reputation for durability makes it fair value for someone seeking reliable loungewear.
Best for
Men who want comfortable, unpretentious shorts for home or casual errands without paying premium prices.
Care
Machine wash warm and tumble dry low to preserve terry texture and elasticity at the waistband.
What owners report about Reigning Champ sweatshirts
Owners report Reigning Champ's all-cotton terry and fleece sweats as unusually durable, with flatlock stitching that draws consistent praise and fabric that softens rather than degrades with washing. Reviewers describe the cut as longer and slimmer than an average hoodie, with the heavyweight fleece warmer and furrier than the midweight loopback terry. Recurring complaints are practical ones tied to the 100% cotton construction: the fabric takes a long time to dry, cuffs stretch out a little over time, and prices sit well above mainstream sweats.
- Strengths
- Made-in-Canada construction and tight-woven cotton that reviewers rate as more durable than typical sweats, improving with wash and wear.
- Watch out for
- The all-cotton fabric dries very slowly and cuffs are the first thing to stretch out; the slim cut runs snug through the torso for broader builds.
- Sizing
- Expect a longer, slimmer fit than average — broader builds should size up in the Standard fit or switch to the Relaxed cut.
