@SurreySam strange question, but do the shorts seem like they'll be hard wearing?
I've been using the Aero shorts for the past few seasons and they fit well but don't last very long.
I train twice a week and play one or two games (depending on fitness!) so I have a couple of pairs that I rotate, but only get a season out of them.
I know they're not expensive in the grand scheme of things, but at £15 a pair I'm basically chucking £30 a season away. If the shock doctors last better I may invest in a pair or two.
Alternatively, I could accept the fact I get a decent amount of use out of them and just suck it up, but that's not half as fun as purchasing new gear, is it!
