Purchased maybe about 3 weeks ago...my favorite shorts I own. the Under Armour brand itself looks and feels amazing! Also the brand naturally runs a little small so if you'd like your regular size, I would go up a size.

I don’t like other shorts that have the zippered over the crack pocket or front flap pocket. Strange locations for pockets. I prefer the smaller inside pocket and this is the only brand that has them. The shorts feel great and lightweight.

This is my first real pair of running shorts, so I didn't really know what to expect. I don't like the fact the shorts don't work will with compression shorts. They are comfortable, but not really my style. However, I do think real runners will love them.

Good fit and quality materials. Wicks away sweat and moisture. The waist elastic rolls down and bunches up unfortunately. Otherwise, this is a good pair of shorts for running.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Under Armour Men's Launch SW 5” Shorts. They are a great pair of shorts for training, running, or just lounging around. They are well-made, comfortable, and stylish.
These are my favorite UA shorts. I love that they have a built in liner. The only thing I would say is that they run a little snug in the waist so size up. Other than that I love them. I have about 4 pairs.
It’s light and comfortable shorts for running and all sorts of exercises. It fits perfectly for me (180cm, 75kg, Waist size 31”, slim/average build). If you are in chunkier build, you may like to consider L size.
Love these shorts. Bought these a second time because my first pair became my favourites, especially for longer runs of 20k+ (and still wearing those after a year or more). Pockets are handy in case you need to carry something light.
I bought these shorts during lockdown as I had started to do more walking & jogging and I don’t regret the purchase. They’re very comfortable with built in tights. There’s a mobile phone pouch built into the right hand pocket that easily accommodates an iPhone and you can run/walk with confidence knowing it’s safe and secure. These shorts fit true and give a great range of movement with maximum comfort. I’ll be investing in another couple of these for sure.
Good shorts. Comes with built in “jocks” making them feel fairly tight - in a good way - so not worried about them falling down.Only things I would change would be to have a hidden pocket in the waist for a key. As usual with a lot of these activewear shorts, the pockets can dip a bit too much in that they are visible below the end of the shorts if you have anything in them.
