Review: Cage Walk closed seam fight short


The product:
I recently picked up a pair of Cage Walk closed seam fight shorts for $17.50. I've worn the split seam version for several months and have had no problems, so I didn't hesitate to purchase these. I got size medium and they fit true to size. I received the shorts 5 days after placing my order.
Features:
Theshorts only come in black and have a mesh inner liner which I find very comfortable. They have a mouth piece pocket inside the shorts which is also a nice feature. They have a draw string under the velcro closure so they can be adjusted. Even though they are closed seam, there's plenty of room for kicking with no restriction. There's only one small logo on the left leg, so you won't feel like a walking bill board. My only (slightly) negative comment is the length. I've got long legs and the shorts hit right above my knee. I'd like something maybe 1/2 inch longer. That's just my personal taste.
Reception:
I got some positive comments from the guys at my gym and I think it's safe to say that others will be ordering these shorts.
Conclusion:
They are basically an inexpensive, no frills fight short that are comfortable and durable.
I would highly recommend these shorts.

Did you find them to be too restrictive, too long?

They do tend to be slightly restrictive. If they were an inch shorter, it would be perfect

i had a pair of size L and they were about inch or two longer than my sprawls and the no flex pannel made it hard for me to grapple with

Yeah some different colours would be cool...

But i am guess that the basic colours that they are currently using is what keeps cost down...
Myself i would love a camo pair, but i am under the impression that "patterns" like that tend to make it so the producer has to up the price so that they can still make a profit...

But i could be wrong...

and if i am...here is one vote for some Camos
