These are great to squat in. Great fit.
We live in the desert yet my son seldom wears shorts even when temps are over 100 degrees.
In an attempt to get him into shorts I purchased the American Defender Shorts 2.0 (Avalanche) for him!! He wore those bad boys for two days straight and loves them. He wore them out and about, wore them for his outside chores and even for his gym workout. He wants more pairs now!!
I bought the defender 2.0 to wear for no gi jiu jitsu but have ended up wearing them all day-everyday. I now see we have a 3.0 option, so I’ll soon grab a pair of those. These are super light, very comfortable, and the side pockets are high and deep enough to actually be functional.
Received a pair of jorts from a GainzBox subscription. High quality, though a bit tight to wear out of the house for my taste, so I decided to take advantage of the coupon that came with them and purchase a different product from Born Primitive (American Defender Shorts 2.0). Great fitting shorts - I like the velcro with additional tie. The shorts are comfortable , look great (no eye rolling from my teenage daughter like with the jorts), and feel durable to endure many hard workouts. So now I can wear the jorts in my at-home workouts in the garage and the Defender shorts to the gym.
Great fit and style, I'm usually a 33 so these fit great. Sometimes 34's are too big and 32's are too small. I love finding shorts like this. Plan on getting more in different colors. Thanks BP for making functional shorts that fit.

Every bra serves a different purpose for different activities and we recommend referencing each specific bra product description to determine the best bra for your body and sport. Our bras should generally fit snug. Wearing the bras too loose will not likely provide adequate support.
***Please note, a majority of our sports bras are medium support and medium coverage. If you are looking for the highest impact support that we offer; check out the X-Factor, Intensity or Moxie Sports Bra!
