Are the sizes wrong? It’s super small, I usually use 6, it didn’t even close a 10, it will look good on me. It’s not stretch.

These shorts are exactly what I was looking for! I'm between 0-2 in size and im 5'2 and 120lbs. I bought size 2 and they fit perfectly. I would classify them as more of a size 1. I hope that helps anyone that is around my size.

These are just awful. I don’t know why we’re trending away from stretch, but it seems it’s the new “new”. As such these are horribly stiff and don’t get me started on the sizing. I’m a 0 or a 2 pretty religiously but I purchased a 2 and a 4 and both were ill fitting and snug. The style is cute but nothing about the execution on these shorts is a win.

I have 4 Universal Thread cuttoffs from previous years and I love them. They're getting worn so I ordered a new pair. I have worn a 6 or an 8 previously. This year's cuttoffs with a button fly are an odd cut. Try them on first is my recommendation.

Way too small, no stretch.

Jaimee - 15 days ago, Verified purchaser
In theory, these are cute shorts. They fit about 2, maybe even 3 sizes too small and have absolutely no stretch or movement to them. They seem like they are more for looks and to be cute for a couple hours, not to actually wear and walk around. They also ride up your rear end. For reference, I’m about a 2-4 in most denim shorts and I had to get a 6 in these and probably could have even gotten an 8.

Love the color! They fit well (but run small IMO). I am normally a 12 and got a 14 for a little more room. I’m 5’8 and the length is perfect for a “short shorts.”

I usually am between a 8-10 but I bought a 10 and a 12 to be safe. When I put the 12 on they barely fit over my thighs. No stretch AT ALL

These are nice dupe to levis especially (if you dont want to pay levi prices especially for shorts) these are a great dupe Im usually a size 2 and sized up to a size 6. They fit good but no stretch to them at all so just keep that in mind.

These are meant to be mini shorts, but all around they fit very small. I had to size up two sizes. Overall, they just feel cheap.

Full disclosure I did not purchase these. Why? One look at the material Contant, which has no stretch, and I immediately dismissed the idea of buying them. Come on, Target, you should know better!!

These shorts do run a size or two small, depending on how you need them to fit. HOWEVER, they are my favorite shorts this season, I like them better than my Levi's. I ended up wearing my first pair on repeat while on vacation and buying 2 more pairs for the summer. I am a smaller waist, bigger in the thigh girly and normally a 10/12 at Target and 5'8".. I got a 14 and they fit great.

Sizing is way off! I usually wear a four and I would need like an eight in these to fit. Not worth the hassle.

Raeanng - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
As the prev comments state, you need to size up. But also there’s no stretch so even with the bigger sizes it was still no stretch for thighs and butts so it gave everything a flat look.

Run VERY SMALL

DJKasey - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
Wanted to love these but like others have mentioned, they are sized VERY small. You will need to SIZE UP 1 or 2 sizes!!! I'm normally a 4, I ordered 4s & 6s since these had no stretch. The size 6s were WAY too small. I ordered these online; now I'm going to have to go in-store and spend time trying on other sizes. I hope I'll still get the sale price if I exchange? Also, I had the shorts shipped to me and they all had a nasty chemical smell to them.

Emi - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
The design is nice but I wouldn't buy it again because the sizing is so strange. I consistently wear a size 6 in target branded pants and shorts, sometimes a 4, but I sized up to a size 8 on these based on reviews. They're TINY. If I wanted to wear them I would have to get a size 10 or 12, probably. And even that may be too small.
