How to measure

Excellent fit

These shorts are a perfect fit and they nice look. They are not at all big and bulky but slimming.

Proper Size and Comfortable

I bought these board shorts to go with a swim top because I was going on vacation to Arizona and knew I would be in a pool. I have lost about 50 pounds and decided to try this brand. I was very happy with their sizing because the shorts fit perfectly.

Fit runs small no stretch at all. Can't return so stuck here with them.

Great Swim Shorts

These are great if you want to cover parts of your body in the summer. And the matching tops are great too! I did notice the printed shorts ran a little smaller so I sized up from a large to an X-Large. Otherwise this brand is exactly what I was looking for as far as coverage and modesty as I prefer to not show certain parts of my body in swim wear.

Disappointed

Love the colour! However, it doesn’t fit well for all body types. I thought it might work at first, but I’m not entirely happy with this item.

Awesome!

Love these. Cute, comfy and perfect coverage. I like the built in underwear. They dried very quickly. So comfortable, I can wear all day.

Too big and other problems

The shorts have a nice floral design, I really liked that. The shorts were too big. I'll be honest I didn't like the material at all. The material came off as cheap and flimsy. The shorts material was more sheer than what I expected, no lining and I would not want to wear them wet or dry in public. Maybe lounge shorts, or sleepwear but not swimwear.

Easy breezy board shirts

I’m 5’2” and wear a size 10 and got the large in these board shorts. Roomy easy fit and nice length for a bit more coverage.

Not baby body friendly :( But soft!

Early 30s mom of 5 here. I am 6’1” and the shorts hit about 5” above my knee. I was excited about the shorts but I was kind of bummed when I tried them on. They are soft (which, comfy is good right?) but unfortunately thin and unlined, you can faintly see the color of my swim bottoms through the white patches in the pattern. I am concerned they won’t hold up that well since the fabric is thin. I was expecting a thicker more structured fit. They also tend to hug everything so they show lines of the swim bottoms underneath and don’t really hide anything else. So, as women, its amazing that our bodies can carry babies and give birth, but things worth doing can leave some scars (lumps, bumps, and we totally change shape sometimes…its worth it!) but we still want to feel good in our swim suits and not feel like our proverbial “battle scars” are on display to everyone if you catch my drift. So I can’t say I love them for myself if I am honest.

Not a swim bottom

I didn’t realize that these shorts have no inner swim bottom, they are just a pair of shorts. The fabric seemed nice for a quick dry, but I returned them because they cannot be worn on their own, and I was looking for a swim bottom.
