I emailed Hayabusafightwear.com about the shorts and learned a few more things not listed on the site:

- shorts have an elastic waistband (which you can see in a couple of pics on their site) that can stretch about 1 size up
- material is heavier than some other fight short brands, due to the kind of high quality, durable fabric used in the design
- logos are embroidered except for the kanji on the back leg, which is a hq screen print

I like the waistband being elastic, partly because if it weren't I wouldn't be able to fit into the biggest size they've got. The heavier weight of the shorts won't be much of a concern as long as they're not restrictive, but nevertheless I'm sure people who like lighter shorts will find it a sticking point.
