I’ll be honest, I hesitated before pulling the trigger on these because of the price — Ryker shorts aren’t cheap, and I’ve been burned before by “premium” athletic wear that doesn’t actually perform any better than the $25 stuff. These are different.
I wear them for lifting (3-on-2-off split), longer bike rides, and just knocking around the house, and the difference in comfort is immediately noticeable — no chafing, no weird bunching, and the fabric breathes way better than I expected for something this substantial. The fit holds up whether I’m under a bar or on the bike for 15+ miles, which is more than I can say for other brands I’ve tried.
Are they expensive? Yes. Do I regret buying them? Not even a little. This is one of those cases where you actually get what you pay for — the quality is obvious the second you put them on, and they’ve held their shape wash after wash so far.
I’m planning to put these through real long-term use — daily training, higher mileage rides, the works — so I’ll come back and update this review after 3 months of consistent wear to report on durability. So far, though, I’m sold. Ryker please contact me when able.

Great shorts that hold up even after many washes! I would suggest getting the smaller size if you're between sizes like I am. I'm 6 foot 2, 200 lbs and the medium is much better than the large.

I’ve had them for about a week now. I absolutely love them. Well-made, soft against the skin. Just great shorts. The quality of them is exceptional. I will be buying more.

Best shorts! My husband really likes these and I love that he’s not wearing trash on his body!!

I bought these shorts to get some plastic free work out gear both for me and the planet. I'm loving them because they are the most comfortable shorts I've ever worn. They are great for runs and weights.
