Just like with the pair of shorts featuring purple bats, these shorts suffer the same problem: sizing is an issue. I'm normally a medium, but past experiences made me wary and I went a size up. Glad I did. The large BARELY fits. I wanted to exchange but they're sold out. I'm not too bummed about this because I'm working on exercising and I know they'll fit better eventually. Even so, normally if I buy a large, there's some leeway to move around in. The large for these shorts are skin tight! I honestly think I'd have to go to at least a 2XL for these to fit which us definitely not a size I normally buy. Just be cautious when you buy. Order a size up, maybe two. VF is usually really good about sizing but every once in a while there's a rogue sizing. But returns are easy if the size you want is available still. VF is good about refunds and exchanges.
