Anyone tried these yet?

I'm curious how they fit. I fall in that obnoxious in-between sizes of 32 or 33. I'm tempted to pull the trigger and just get a pair, but at $55, plus shipping and tax (I'm a California Resident)... that's a lot! But they look so cool! :mad:
Anyone tried them on? Own a pair? Has a friend that owns a pair? etc.
If so, do they run big, small or true to size? In Sprawls V-series, I wear a 32 cause they're kind of big. Any suggestions? I've tried calling them to ask, but they don't answer their phone.

All I know is that a few months ago, those shorts were exclusive to Fairtex fighters.

Ha $54 bucks.............ha!
Typical price for any board short..add to cart and Buy!
 
But Sprawls are only 42-44,and Tapouts are 46,and Clinchgears are only 38,I could go on and on the only shorts that are that price Brazilian NOGI's and Tapout board shorts.


$54 dollars for some old Flex Fighter look-alikes....HA!
 
Fairtex makes some great products, so i won't doubt their quality.

they do seem like the 2005 flexfighter model though...

I'm digging those. And $10 extra ain't too bad to get something unique.

Of course, I'm broke, so I'll be getting some more Cagewalks, but if I had the cash, I'd get these over Tapout anyday.

I just sold my last last pair of size Small to a guy who was also 32 - 33. They fitted him perfectly so go for a Small
 
I have seen them in person and they are ok. Not anything special. I would get nogi, sprawl or inspirit before buying these. That's just my opinion. Remember Gilbert Melendez didn't even wear these for his Pride debut but, he did wear them for his Strikeforce title fight. Oh and the ones without the big Fairtex print on the side has like a 2 inch strip of stretchy material down each side.
 
Do look like the old sprawls, thats for sure. If you end up getting them send me a pm and tell me how they worked out for ya. Or post a review of them

I have a pair and I'm roughly a 32/33 also. Go with the Mediums. They fit fine on me. They are a little tight around the hips though, but a lot of fight shorts are like that.
