Strange as those are my favorite grappling shorts. I'm a 33 or so and wear the 34 and they fit just fine. I actually prefer them over my sprawls because they fit and look better IMO. The sprawls are nice but they just look too... sporty I guess. The FT are more fasionable. But besides that they are very light and comfortable. I prefer that they don't have a drawstring to get in the way and the neoprene wasteband is more comfortable than that elastic stuff that goes all they way around the sprawls.

How do you guys feel about the fabric the shorts are made out of?

I actually like the fabric a lot. Light yet very durable, and it dries extremely quickly. DropBows and amphivious have made some good points about the closure system/waist, but mine fit me perfectly, and I like them a lot. The shorts are not that adjustable.

The only real complaint I have is that they are a bit on the long side. I prefer slightly shorter shorts.

I like the material a lot. The plaids literally feel like cotton and it dries really fast. I have long legs so the length doesn't bother me. I think that's one thing I don't like about the sprawls. They look like Daisy dukes on me.
