Looks close. I guess I have to go to Dicks or Sports Authority and actually look at the items. They had a simple, durable, quality short, not hi-tech and not as good.

Again I will contact Eastbay and see what they recommend.

UA Renegade
 

I swim in them all the time-they size small so size up!

original?
 

Is it therefore these? http://www.underarmour.com/shop/us/e...rts/pid1236248

Sorry to say, no. They were not that flashy, with the yellow.
Eastbay seems to have what I want, and I have a question into them concerning their product. They are very quick to reply. Price WAY lower and, if the answers are what I am looking for, will let you all know.

An update, if anyone cares.
Easybay responded in 4 hours with all the right questions. Two shorts for $20. I am sure they are not as rugged at UA, but I can by many more for their one piece price.
Will let you know if the "feel" the same as the ones I was trying to find

For the - what ever it is worth department:

The two shorts arrived in quick order. It is unfortunate that there were not what I was expecting, but that is mail order.

The length is right, but they are not made of just nylon/lycra, that I believe the original ones were. With all this add on wicking, odor control, etc. I believe it changes the feel of the nylon/lycra.

I will keep them, but not overly happy.

Will keep looking.

A pity about that....
 

.......but know how you feel as I long ago gave up still finding my favorite Jantzen brief of many years past (in a very comfortable fabric which was rubberised to a degree as I recall)

Starter brand?
 

Have you looked at the Starter ones at Wal Mart? They are only $12. I like them.

Forgot about them. I have a few from long days gone by. Not sure if I will fit into them now (sorry to say)

These come in a large range of sizes, from S to XL and maybe even XXL. Interestingly they are in all the stores but not on line
