So comfy - my new go to shorts!

I've put it through the wringer
Size Bought:
Large

Weather lounging, working outside, running, or adventuring, these shorts have held up! I mostly love them because I have athletic thighs and all other shorts I’ve tried like this are too tight in that area. The waist band is nice and sturdy and stays in place and the pockets are perfect for chapstick, keys, and my small card case! Love love love these so much I bought a second pair. Some people complained about this color being see through? But I haven’t experienced that yet.

Gathers in the Back

I love a lot of things about these shorts. The color, the zipper pockets, the drawstring, the waist, and how they fit my legs BUT the only thing I struggle with is how they gather on the back and extra material points out. I think it might be because they run big and if I went down in a size they might not do that. Otherwise no complaints!

Melon Color See Through

Size Bought:
M
Height:
5' 7"

These run a bit big, I don't mind that in the waist (plus there's a drawstring), the legs are good for more athletic thighs. I like the super light fabric but unfortunately the melon color (which is great) is see through. You can see undies and the inner pockets, which are black. The 2 pockets have zippers which I suppose is nice for added security.

Comfortable and versatile shorts!

Familiarity:

Finding a good pair of women's shorts that are both functional and flattering can be a difficult feat, but I'm really happy with these! The best feature is obviously the zippered pockets, that are sizeable but also discreet. The material is really lightweight and breathable, perfect for high output activities on hot days. I have chicken legs, so I wish they were a bit slimmer, but I still love the fit! I would say that these run a little large. I have a 27in waist and fit best in the XS for these.
