I own a couple pairs of their shortest styles + wear them whenever it's warm enough.
They feel great but do offer fairly minimal coverage.
I have a black pair of their Rugby Shorts, which really are well smart, tho I wish they had pockets......
I also have a white pair of their Footy Shorts. [Aussie Rules type]
These are definitely the shortest shorts I own - they're about 8 inches long.
They also turn almost completely transparent when wet.

Wearin them to + fro at the beach I mostly get compliments.
Wearin them in town in the UK is a different matter tho.
I've had a few ironic wolf-whistles + stares, as well as comments like -
'Hey mate, are yer sure those shorts are short enough?'

I also wore them to a rugby match once, since I've always liked my Rugby Shorts nice + short.
I don't know that I'd wear them to one again tho. I'll stick with my regular 12'' Rugger Shorts.
I can handle a few comments, coz I think it's worth it, if ya get to wear somethin that feels comfortable,
but havin fifty blokes spendin every spare moment takin the rise is just not cool.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I did it + any of my mates will tell ya that I always like to wear really short shorts.
It just seems stupid to get all that hassle for wearin somethin actually designed specifically for that purpose.........
