I normally wear a 38 and like the fit to be slightly loose in the crotch and thigh area, also prefer shorts that stop at knee, these fit the bill?

The sizing is "generous" and should be loose. As to the length...well, it depends on how tall you are! I'm 5'6" and the shorts are just below my knees.

I was told to get the next size up which I did and I LOVE these...very comfortable, and glad I followed the advice.

Based on your preferences, I would have to say that you would not be happy with the Propper tactical shorts. I don't think they are overly tight in the crotch or thighs, but they aren't loose. I will say, at least for me they stop at the knee. Try some TruSpec brand and I think you will be pleased.

I'm a size 32, and I wear a Large. They are meant to be tight, but I gave myself a little extra room. I wear them under my board shorts when surfing, since it prevents chaffing from my shorts.

My waist size is 38 and I purchased the XL sized running shorts. Hope this helps.

Yes but they do not have padding on the outside thigh and hip area like sliding shorts do. I use these for MMA fighting. I love them. Mediums are between 32 and 34.

I wear a regular size 2 jeans and wear a size small in these volleyball shorts. They are really stretchy and are supposed to be worn tight otherwise they ride up your butt.

You'll want the small. My knee is the same measurement and the smalls are perfect. They are tight but not too constrictive, and really, the last thing you want is them to be sliding down your leg!

I have a 35 waist and bought XL. They fit well. My legs are not thin, probably medium to above average.

These shorts, which I like a lot, are roomy in the seat and thighs, and I don't think there's anything you can do about that. But they do run a little large. I wear a 2x waist in most cases (it depends on where pants are made, etc., etc. I'm a big guy), and I bought the 2x. They fit great when I put them on. What I find is that, because they're made of cotton, the waist stretches throughout the day, enough for me to cinch my belt one hole tighter sometime in the middle of the day. But as I say, I love these shorts, and I'm okay with them loosening up somewhat. But a 1X or an XL would have been to smalll for me, even though they run somewhat large. Hope this is helpful.

I got a medium. my thigh at 5 in above the knee is 17' dia. fits very snug new which is good because they will stretch out over time.

I am 6' and about 190-200lbs. My waist is 32-34" with a 36" inseam. I got the XXL and I'm pretty happy. They could use another 0.5-1" in length, maybe, and I would be ok if they were a little less snug in the legs (but I usually have to get relaxed fit jeans). You would probably be ok with XXL or even XXXL.

If you wear hip protection I would recommend a medium.... I'm 5'10 36-38 waist and I wear poc vpd hip protectors and the Large fits perfectly. So logically if I were you I would go with the Medium. The shorts have velcor adjustments at the hips so if the medium is a little loose you can tighten it up easy. I used these shorts all last season and they are very high quality. I'm very happy with them

You order for comfort. What size underwear shorts do you wear? I would base my size then on that. I have a little over a 38 waist and I have used XL because I don't like tight fitting underwear or supporters.

They seem to be accurate in measurements. I wear 30" in jeans and I ordered 30" and the shorts fit great. There is also a drawstring in them if they are a little bit big.

Yes. I think you will be ok with 30 waste. I am a 32-33 waste and wear the size 32. You won't be disappointed they are a good pair of shorts.

Most of the underarmour gear that you get especially these in particular should be around mid thigh to almost kneecap. that's how most spansex like that are, and or compression shorts.

Not positive, but a medium or large should work. The shorts are quite elastic so medium would probably be your best bet, if I had to guess. I'm 6 feet tall and 205 lbs and I use an xl and there's plenty of room for my 34 inch waist. Hope this helps, good luck

I would go for the medium.I am a 35" hip and a 27" waist and I took the small, they were quite comfortable.
