1st review of NOGI Echos w/PICS

krnguy03 · 12-16-2006, 04:47 PM

well let me start off by saying that nogi pulled through because as most of you know im leaving pretty soon... thier word is trustworthy.. good for a company that does what they say..

anyways back to the shorts.. let me say they are very comfortable.. the material is very smooth and feels very durable.. at first when i opened them up they looked kinda long.. but when i put them on they felt just right.. the material is semi stretchy.. you have full range in motion.. no restrictiveness at all.. and the high exterior pocket is awesome in my opinion.. much easier to access than the interior pocket on the sprawls.. the colors are awesome IMO.. not see through at all.. which alot of people were worried about with the original OEs.. i like the Echo color scheme better than the OEs.. the stitching on these shorts are very strong also.. these shorts feel solid.. comfort, durablility, design, is 10/10..

hope you guys enjoy..

i got the OEs also but there was already pics and reviews out there so i just did one on the echos.. i got the 36s.. im 6'3'' 205 lbs.. they fit true to thier size.. and it took about 3 days to arrive.. the shorts stop alittle below my knee but they dont get caught up when you throw knees like regular boardshorts do... and thanks i'll have my fun in korea..

^ mmm, DAMNIT....I'm scared that the 32's I got will be loose as fuck. I don't have a true size...I'm between 30-31, Oh well... at least they're comfy comfy.

yea these shorts are very well constructed.. i would wear them out.. they look like regular boardshorts... and i know that youve been waiting for pics foz..

^ Hmmmm I wonder how the brown color will go with my skin.......I hope the color complexion matches well with my tan skin.. I don't know about the OEs......considering their see through, I might just wear like a dark colored boxer or something.

krnguy03 · 12-16-2006, 08:57 PM

i usually wear black compression shorts with any of my shorts sprawl tapout and now nogi.. you dont really need to worry about them being see through unless you go commando and jump in water... that usually happens with white clothing.. but hey where can you find a better deal of 65 dollars for 2 pairs of high quality shorts?

hey Krnguy your lucky bro cause i'm still waiting for my Nogi shorts to arrive.
