Rep shorts spreadsheet: replica mesh, sweat, cargo and swim shorts from Weidian and Taobao, with QC photos, fit and sizing notes, and side-by-side agent prices.
About Shorts reps
Shorts are a low-cost, high-rotation reps category — a cheap way to round out a fit and an easy second order once you trust an agent. This page tracks the mesh, sweat, cargo and swim short listings the community is buying.
The tells are simple but real: print placement, waistband elastic and stitching are where weak batches slip. Every listing links the original Weidian/Taobao seller so you can compare the same pair across agents.
Filter by brand, sort by price, and check the cm measurements — shorts inseams vary a lot between styles.

How to buy good Shorts reps
Check the inseam and waist in centimetres against a pair you own; "5-inch" and "7-inch" cuts look very different. For mesh and sweat shorts, inspect logo placement and elastic recovery; for cargos, check pocket construction and hardware.
Look at hem and side-seam stitching in QC. Asian sizing runs small, so size up if between sizes. Compare agents on the same listing to keep the landed cost low on what should be a cheap buy.
