The forty thieves shorts isn’t anything special. With no drawstring, it’s difficult to order your fitting size. Though, some people like shorts without drawstring, I prefer having secure, and fitting shorts.

The shorts feel like plastic with a bit of softness. The shorts I have are black with white lining throughout the side split seam. The shorts have neoprene lining inside which is meant to soak up the sweat. I don’t think it does much, but I guess it does the job? The neoprene lining feels like swimsuit material.

I still need to gain a few more pounds before these could fit me which is pretty motivating because I want to gain weight. Though, these fit me, but they’re just a bit loose.

These shorts are verrry durable, no problems at all with these. No loose threads , or rips..no NOTHING! Also, you should be able to afford these shorts, and I would strongly recommend the newer shorts to anyone interested in purchasing forty thieves shorts. With the added drawstring, I know the shorts will be good.

I know Binh (The owner) has released special edition 40thieves shorts with drawstring, pocket etc.. I own one of his older version of the shorts.

my personal rating on these shorts would be

3.5/5

I purchased the same shorts in the picture (second edition I think) . Mine did come with a drawstring and instead of a neoprene lining they have Lycra. The shorts are bad ass. The design is great and it does not look like every other grappling short. I’ve had these for at least 6 months and they look like new.

Fyi.. I plan to buy at leat 2 more of these. I like them that much

Simple and solid, my go-to shorts. Nothing revolutionary, but hard to beat. Plus they use a lot of really different fabrics that you don’t see too often in MMA shorts.
