Catherine Santino/Insider Amazon offers a wide variety of clothing, but it can be difficult to suss out what is actually good. This $22 pair of athletic shorts has over 3,000 5-star ratings and was a staple in my summer wardrobe. The shorts come in a ton of colors and can be dressed up or down.

Amazon may not be the first place you think of when it comes to shopping for clothes. However, I have found Amazon has a fantastic selection when it comes to loungewear, athleticwear, and other everyday items that don’t necessarily need to be high-end but don’t fall apart after a few rounds through the washing machine. The Amazon shopping process is not always smooth sailing, though.

It can be frustrating and time-consuming to scour the seemingly endless pages of options, and while reviews are helpful, it’s still sometimes tough to determine the quality of an item. That’s precisely why I consider myself lucky to have stumbled across this pair of athletic shorts from the brand Automet, which quickly became my most-worn item of clothing this summer. The shorts are comfy, versatile, and good qualityThe Amazon shorts are exceptionally comfortable for hot days.

Catherine Santino/InsiderI basically live in athletic shorts in the summertime, especially since I work from home and prefer to be casual most days. To make sure my closet was stocked with comfy pieces for the season, I picked up a black pair of the Automet shorts back in May for $21. 99.

I was impressed with the amount of positive reviews (at the time of writing this, there are 3,117 five-star reviews) and chose my usual size of medium, as that’s what Amazon recommended (the shorts are available in sizes SX-3X). They fit like a glove and I was impressed with the quality, so I quickly purchased another pair in Black as well as a pair in the color Coffee, a light brown. The shorts have a comfortable stretchy band and hit just above mid-thigh.

Catherine Santino/InsiderI immediately liked that the material is thick enough to withstand wear and tear, but not so heavy that they are uncomfortable or too warm. I also appreciate that the waistband doesn’t slip and slide around, which has been an issue for me with other athletic shorts. These shorts do come with a drawstring on the inside of the waistband, but I removed it as I don’t find drawstrings particularly helpful or comfortable.

It was easy to do (I simply pulled it out, no scissors necessary) and didn’t change the fit or appearance of the shorts at all. You can dress up the shorts in a number of ways: by throwing on a blazer, or pairing it with a dressier shirt and some mules. Catherine Santino/InsiderThese shorts are perfect for lounging at home, running errands, working out, and can even be dressed up a bit.

For a casual look, I pair them with a cropped tank or t-shirt and throw on sneakers. If I’m going for something a little more elevated, I find that wearing them with a breezy button down and mules creates the perfect chic-yet-relaxed outfit for summer. The shorts come in a ton of colorsI now own these shorts in two different neutrals, but they come in a range of colors.

Catherine Santino/InsiderAnother benefit to these shorts is that they come in a large variety of colors — a whopping 28 in total. I chose black and brown as I tend to wear neutrals, but they have a ton of bright, bold options, and even some that are colorblocked. The bottom lineWhether you essentially live in loungewear like me or you just need some comfy pieces for the gym or more casual days, these Automet shorts are a worthwhile buy.

At just over $20, you’ll rarely find higher quality for the price, and the color selection is unbeatable. Plus, since they’re sold on Amazon, you can expect fast shipping. Go ahead — you might just find yourself buying them in multiple colors.
