For the price you pay, you can find a better pair of shorts with the 4-way stretch fabric (does not come with 4-way stretch fabric). If you're looking for more bang for your buck, I would look at another product.
As a tall 155lb fighter, I always have trouble finding shorts that don't feel like Thai shorts. These shorts are longer on the inseam and have a nice V-cut on the outsides to make them not only comfortable but also great for throwing high kicks. Very lightweight, great look and feel. Closure system feels a little weak though.
Yes, the shorts are constructed of lightweight material to promote optimal athletic performance. As for stains, proper care of the shorts should help prevent any stains from forming.
