Wondering how to get a closet full of great-fitting outfits? Time to bring out that tape measure.

How to measure

    Run tape measure from the top of your shoulder, between your legs & up again back to where you started.

    Bend slightly to one side. The crease is where your natural waistline is. Measure a comfortably loose, level line around that point.

    Great for someone with aging legs :-) They could even be 1" longer for me.

    Not color fast

    These do not hold their color. I have dripped pink on the floor, my book has pink pages where I rested it for a moment on my leg, and there's pink all over the shower.

    Good fit and comfy

    Very comfy. Fits true to size. Lies flat enough that I can wear it under a swim dress, which was the goal.

    Comfortable, well made shorts add choices!

    I've added the Mid-Thigh Shorts to my collection, because I already have the capri length bottoms. I have three different top styles that all coordinate with the bottoms, so now have lots of great choices. Kind of like having a swim capsule wardrobe! These shorts are well-made, comfortable, and suit my older body very well.

    great swim shorts

    I loved the mid thigh swim shorts but unfortunately I ordered the wrong size and they were too big. I tried to exchange them for a size down but it was out of stock so I had to return the swim shorts for a refund. I'm still waiting for my refund.

    Great Quality Biker Short Style Bottoms

    I really like the biker bottoms, great quality. However I only give it a 4 star review because there is no lining like what I have come to expect in swimming bottoms. I was so disappointed because I planned to wear these with the new tank top I bought from you guys. However, being that they were not lined I felt I needed to wear them over the top of my older one piece bathing suit. I hope that you will add lining in future productions. Then this would be a 5 star item!

    Fit and quality need serious improvement!

    The shorts fit comfortably however they are very thin and almost see through. The bottom rolls up on your leg and does not stay snug.

    Seen better quality at Kohls and Penney’s and Macy

    The crouch was ripped had to sew it or face embarrassment at public pool. Surprised for cost and seamstress must not be good you people have. Your swimwear needs to be made better for prices you are charging.

    Material feels good.

    I really like these swim shorts. The fit is good and the material feels nice against my skin. I'm 5'7 and 125 lbs and bought a large so that they weren't so tight. They work well in the water.

    Flimsy fabric

    Fabric is too flimsy to swim shorts, but other colors in this same style don’t have this issue. Fits well.

    Good fit

    These swim shorts were exactly what I was looking for in terms of length and fit. I got xl and think L might have been ok too. They come to just above my knee. They are a little thin but overall great under my swim dress.
