These are my new favorite shorts. I got them in the green- I wear them hiking, running and kayaking. Super versatile, stretch, comfortable and flattering!

The shorts are nice, cheap seams

After wearing them and washing them once, the seams have started to come unthreaded on the top waste band. They seem very cheap and barely attached.

I was given this product by Backcountry and this is my honest opinion. The material is incredibly stretchy and forgiving and so lightweight! I wasn't sure about the super high waist but it grew on me and now I love it. These are a little more form fitting if you will than a similar water short but love how they fit and the cut design up the thigh. Wore these shorts paddle boarding, on a few river trips, on some hikes and around town.

The second I put these on they felt amazing. The material is light weight and I love that they are high waisted, its super flattering. Got these in the fuscia color and it looks really cute. Got lots of complements on them. I'm a curvy/athletic build and shorts are hard for me, these fit swimmingly. Was in between M and L - happy I went with L!

I’m 5’ 9” and 170 pounds. These shorts are high waisted so they hide my little tummy pouch fairly well. I ordered a large. Glad I did - fits perfectly as my legs have room to move (I think they were trying to go for a more fitted short here but I like more lose). I pair them with a tight white sports bra top and it’s a super cute outfit. Only has one back pocket but not a big deal for me. Can’t wait to wear these hiking and in the river. Got the peach color, straight early 90s - love the vibe.

I love these shorts! They are the perfect summer short for all activities. I got the Tropical Peach Print and I get so many compliments on it when I wear them. They fit perfectly and run true to size. I definitely need them in more colors!

I love these shorts. Ordered them in all 4 colors. Wish there was more because I'd order them too. They look cute with sandals or even tennis shoes, super versatile. Material so far seems very durable. I'd comfortably wear them hiking, in the water or just out on the town. 5'6 and135-140lb muscular build. The size small fit perfectly all around. New favorite addition to my wardrobe.

I will start off by saying that these may be the perfect river shorts for those looking for a high waisted option. For me, I expect to be hot and wet and don’t necessarily want that part of my body covered tightly for the activities I’d be using these for. The legs are dolphin cut and very cute but I will say they are form fitting and I wanted something looser. I am 5’3” with 19” thighs and a bigger booty/smaller waist. These fit pretty well with adequate bun coverage but a bit too snug for my preference. Overall, the quality is excellent and the color is beautiful. I would be more on board if these were more relaxed fit, but I’d you’re looking for above the belly button and more fitted shorts, these are for you!
