Introducing our brand new CLASSIC Bodybuilding Shorts. The main difference is the fit and feel. These shorts are about 0.75″ shorter than our previous shorts and about 1″ smaller in circumference (the leg holes).Aiming at evoking the classic shorts from the 60s-80s, our new classic line is made of a thinner material (polyester), fits tighter and a little higher than our current Bodybuilding Shorts.The shorts have been tailored to fit above the knee and are tapered around your thighs to show off the wheels. A side slit is also included in case you are busting out with gains. Our model is 5’8, about 195lb, very muscular and wearing a size medium. He could also wear a large which would fit very comfortably.In general the recommendation is the following:Whatever short size you typically wear, go with that size if you want the authentic classic shorts experience, these are more tapered and also a little shorter (as you can see, above the knee to show off the quads). If you’ve bought our shorts before, unless they were quite tight, stick to the same size. If they WERE tight, go a size bigger. If you are more conservative and don’t want your sculpted thighs showing, size up.
