Nice material. Hubby loves the next ones of these shorts however they didn;t have any cream light coloured ones this year so we had to get a regatta pair for the colour. They are cheaper than the next ones and the material is the same as the next ones however the fit on the waist is the same as next however the leg is significantly tighter ( but there not suppose to be skinny fit there suppose to be regular) and therefore not as comfortable to wear he can just go for a walk in them however he couldn;t bike ride in these where as the next ones he can. So if you have muscly legs don;t buy them or expect not to do any sport in them
