I am interested in purchasing these shorts but would like to know if they are easy to take on and off - I am on diuretics and use the bathroom often.

they don't have a crouch, therefore you need to pull them down. not the easiest to get in and out of.

If they fit correctly they are likely to require some effort to pull up and down.

I find them easy for me to take on and off. They just slip on and off effortlessly for me but they are tight fitting but comfortable I think. I have hip problems so that is why I use the compression shorts.

It seems pretty easy to me to take them off I must say - not like the long ones.

Thy are tight and very well made but i would not say thy are hard to get on and off

Yes. You can take a shower, go swimming, etc. They stick well. The only issue I've had is forgetting to take one off and it got really stuck. They are a lot like a bandaid, except bigger.

My honest guess is they are for men, as the waist is rather high, but as a female I find them quite comfy, and I prefer the longer shorts leg, as most women's shorts are too short to be effective. Sometimes the waist closure moves and gets in the way of my hips while paddling for a wave, but otherwise they work great for me.

I don't know how you define "comfortable" and "very comfortable". I have found them to work just fine to the point that I don't use padded shorts any longer.

I wore them out to Costa Rica and Nicaragua just recently. It was blazing hot out there and my bottoms did get pretty hot still. I only wore them as shorts of course; however, I do feel they were fine for morning and early afternoons. During the rest of the day I was on the beach so I can't say much for the really hot hours. I do feel while in shade when I did wear them (buses, etc to carry my items) I was "okay". Then again, it was insanely hot out. Normally if I wore these in the states on a hot day, I would feel perfectly fine. Crowded areas with no air flow - not so great if you're wearing them as pants. I would still HIGHLY recommend buying a pair. These are fantastic since they're pants and shorts. Really good for nights when the bugs come out or for the airplane when it gets pretty chilly (and when you get off at your final hot destination just unzip them and change them to shorts). Hope this helps you!

You can hold a good grip. The strap is also very helpful. Like I said in my review the smell of them is a total disadvantage. You literary have to wash them almost every other day. Such an inconvenience!!I would suggest looking at other options.

I used the mesh ones to work out and those seemed harder to clean. I switched to the others and just wipe them after each workout. Easy to take off and swap.

I wore regular cotton briefs (with a pad) so I wouldn't have to wash it as often and to keep everything clean. It worked great. It's really easy to hook/unhook and the extra pressure from the garment helps hold the large pads stay in place instead of wadding up or moving around.

I've had no problems taking mine off...at first its a little tight but after the 3rd or 4th time its easy and fast.

No fly. I generally wear these over whatever other underwear I have on and haven't had any slipping issues. As far as urination is concerned, you have to pull them down. That hasn't been an issue for me.

I've seen youtube video reviews, and a woman using them for running turned the shorts around so she carried in front; her weapon seemed more secure while running. When she carried it in back, she felt more movement, although the weapon was never in danger of becoming dislodged. It was more of where it felt the most snug. Either way, it has been used for running. I am buying a pair for that purpose for my S&W; Shield.

They're extremely easy to take off. Just make sure the tub/shower is very dry before you install them.

These shorts, which I like a lot, are roomy in the seat and thighs, and I don't think there's anything you can do about that. But they do run a little large. I wear a 2x waist in most cases (it depends on where pants are made, etc., etc. I'm a big guy), and I bought the 2x. They fit great when I put them on. What I find is that, because they're made of cotton, the waist stretches throughout the day, enough for me to cinch my belt one hole tighter sometime in the middle of the day. But as I say, I love these shorts, and I'm okay with them loosening up somewhat. But a 1X or an XL would have been to smalll for me, even though they run somewhat large. Hope this is helpful.

I have worn them probably 10x thus far. They are very pliable. I like the ease of use, no adhesive and no show. Very comfortable. I do not wear them often, but when I do, I just rinse them off and let then air dry, then I return them to the case. I would not use them every day; more for special occasions. I think they would lose their shape from taking them off if worn on a daily basis.

Nope. Its like regular shorts and you wouldn't want to wear these without an underwear ! That will be the end of you and your shorts ! ;)

Well, it is not a particularly soft cotton material, a bit coarse, but it is not uncomfortable. I just happened to have worn them today, and I forgot all about them (playing table tennis). My only problem with these shorts is they are a bit tight (and I bought the large size, usually I can fit in a large medium). The pockets are a bit small, but you can keep keys in them.

I find them to be reasonably snug without being too tight. For me they are comfortable. If you were to be more active than walking normally, they would slide out of position. Unfortunately probably one of those things you'll have to try to see if they work for you. Hope this helped a little.
