Grey men's shorts may seem simple to choose, but small differences determine whether you wear them often or leave them in the drawer after a few washes. When choosing grey men's shorts, look beyond colour and brand name. The fit, fabric, waistband and pockets largely determine whether a pair is suitable for training, relaxing or everyday wear.
Common buying pitfalls include:
For men's lounge shorts and everyday wear, cotton and cotton blends are often comfortable thanks to their soft feel. A French terry pair may be suitable for relaxing, walking or light activities. According to the product information, the main fabric of the PUMA ESS shorts consists of 68% cotton and 32% polyester. The shorts have a knee-length cut and side pockets.
Men's fleece shorts have a brushed inner side and generally feel warmer. According to the product specification, the Under Armour Rival Fleece shorts consist of 80% cotton and 20% polyester. The inside is brushed, and the design is intended for warm-ups, sports sessions and relaxed wear. For warm weather or prolonged cardio, a lighter fabric may be more practical.
Also pay attention to general claims. If a brand or product listing mentions a particular effect, treat it as a statement from the seller. For example, a claim about antibacterial properties is not an established fact without clear supporting evidence. No detailed product specification is available for the Purcotton models in the selection, so check the material, size and care label on the product page before buying.
An elasticated waistband with a drawstring makes it easier to adjust the fit. Check whether the drawstring is on the inside or outside and whether the waistband feels too tight when you are sitting or moving.
A regular fit generally offers more room around the thigh and hip than a slim fit. The Under Armour Rival Fleece shorts are described as regular fit, with a covered elasticated waistband and external drawstring. The stated inside leg measurement is 25 cm.
The Lee Lounge Short White River-Charcoal Marl is described as relaxed fit. The available information mentions a soft, breathable fabric and a design for relaxed days and warmer weather. For a slimmer appearance, the Lee Lounge Short Mission-Grey Marl features an elasticated waistband with adjustable drawstrings. The composition is listed as 98% cotton and 2% elastane, but the product information recommends checking this against the label on arrival.
Measure your waist where the shorts normally sit and compare it with the size chart. For the Under Armour Rival Fleece shorts, for example, the stated waist measurement ranges from 71–74 cm for XS to 104–116 cm for XXL. If you need a larger size, you can also check the available 3XL size chart.

That depends on the type of training and the temperature. For warm-ups or sport in cooler weather, a fleece pair such as the Under Armour Rival Fleece shorts may be suitable. In warmer conditions, a lighter French terry or cotton blend may feel more comfortable. Always check the length, freedom of movement and waistband.
Measure your waist and compare it with the chart for the specific brand. Also consider the hip measurement and fit. A regular or relaxed fit offers more room than a slim design. If you are between two sizes, it is worth checking whether the drawstring provides enough adjustment.
Follow the product's care label. For this model, PUMA recommends washing at 30 °C, washing inside out and not tumble drying. Under Armour advises washing cold with similar colours, using a low drying temperature and avoiding fabric softener. Proper care helps the shape, colour and fabric last longer.
