Only giving this four stars because it is not true to size. It is very oversized in the legs, however the quality and length is amazing. You also can’t beat the price!

Super cute. I don’t personally think they run big. XS shorts from here are usually big on me and these are pretty true to size in the waste. The legs run a bit wide but that’s all.

These are so comfortable? And have room in the thigh, versus being form fitting like most jean shorts. I’m typically a size 14-16 in jeans and quite curvy, and the XL is perfect!

As other reviews say, I agree that they run large, so I sized down. I’m normally a Large or 10/12 in bottoms and got a medium and they fit perfectly. Great quality, very well made. Can’t beat that price either! Comfortable, cute, flattering.

Pear shaped girlies PSA

Hgwilliamson - 3 days ago, Verified purchaser
I saw the reviews said to size down, so I opted to do my normal size (XL size 16, carry weight in hips and butt) for a looser fit. They fit perfect. But I may return and size up so I can have the really loose fit I wanted. So I’m saying these are TTS if you’re a pear shape!

Really wanted these to work. Sized down as recommended and they fit in the waist but were a little short 135 5’10 for reference. Really liked the style and feel

I was SO excited to get these. I ordered a size smaller(XS) based on reviews, but they still fit funny. I can't pinpoint what exactly I didn't like, but as my husband said, I have a great figure and they did nothing for it.

These shorts are SO comfy and cute. I ordered them in the denim and got a size small which is my normal size (4/27). I got them during the sale, so for $12, you cannot beat these! Plus they definitely pass for a more expensive version elsewhere. I'm definitely going to get a ton of use out of these this summer.

These are amazing and great quality! I’m usually a small and the XS fit me so I’d say they run a little large.
