Sinister shorts dissapointment

I just ordered the big nog and the gladiator 2 shorts in urban and i have to say that i'm totally dissapointed. I own a pair of hayabusas and a pair of revgears, the revgears are 20 dollars and they're a carbon copy of the sinisters with different patterns on them. Furthermore, the big nog shorts pictured here

Sinister Brand - Big Nog Fight Shorts

are clearly white in the picture, yet the shorts i received were the dull gray ones nog wears usually. What's more, i paid 14.95 shipping for 2 pairs of shorts to new york that i ordered on the same day, july 12, that i ordered from rio fightwear and full contact outlet, all my other stuff arrived by wednesday the 16th. These arrived today, Monday the 21st. I'm totally dissatisfied with the quality of the shorts and the shipping speed. Just a heads up to anybody considering these shorts.

They are made in the same factory. if you buy enough you can put your own name on them.

Gotta love those Hayabusa's though.

the carbon copy are of the gladiator shorts?? As they don't look the same on the rev gear site.

I would love another pair of gladiator type shorts as they are great and if you can get them cheaper all the better

The revgears are better, they at least have the stretchy crotch strip, unlike the sinisters.

Well I mean you'd have to expect them to be grey if there big nogs shorts. Besides it does say Silver/Black, maybe the white ones didnt come out yet. Atleast you didnt order from Sinister, I did and got my order in like 2-3 weeks!

I did order from sinister. Also, i expected the shorts to be the color they advertised, i'm not sure that the term silver/black could ever be representative of dull gray/black.

Hey bro, you gotta learn to read. Look at the description 'Silver/black'

That sucks, but that is the chance people take when they order from the internet.
