Material is silky and cool. It's thin (almost flimsy) and something you probably wouldn't want to wear out (hence, sleep shorts).
No pockets, the material is too thin for it hold up anything anyway.
Makes good pajama shorts, and also nice for when you need to have something on for going outside to check your mail. I had hoped for more versatility, but they're truly just sleep shorts, as advertised. The picture of the model makes it seem like they might work as casual shorts, but the material is too flimsy. That's okay though! Still something I needed.
One complaint- it took over 2 weeks to arrive, and several days past the estimate. They shipped it using FedEx, which in my experience is very unreliable and way slower than ups or USPS. There was a full 10 days over which I received no tracking updates, which was a bit frustrating.
