Virtue Hybrid Short 9" V.3 First wear
These shorts look and fit great. They are really comfortable.

Exactly what I was looking for!
I originally ordered an XL (34-36) and I usually wear a 36 (5’11” 195lbs). I ended up exchanging for an XXL which fit perfect. The material is excellent and the shorts are light, breathable and seem durable. The best feature is the integrated belt AND belt loops. Most athletic shorts of this type don’t have belt loops. For some of us exercising our certain God given rights, belt loops are a must. I immediately ordered a V3 in tan since the V2 was out of stock. Thanks Ketl!

Decent shorts
The overall quality is good IF you can get them at a 15-20 dollar discount. If ketl insist on a premium price of 74+ dollars at least put a button instead of that cheap velcro replacement. That velcro “button” is not a suitable replacement.

Handler of All Situations
These shorts are high quality and handle any situation you throw at them. Just get ‘em!

Great shorts
The material is super stretchy and comfortable. Could easily hike or bike in them but they look nice so can just as easily be worn out for brunch or dinner. The zipper pockets are nice. The integrated belt is nice but the hook is a little cumbersome for me personally. I've pretty much lived in these shorts since I got them - I will be buying more.
