Sizing is off

Nice quality but sizing is way off. I sized up after reading reviews but they were still too tight. They were not flattering so I returned them. 5’4” 150 lb

Cute but runs small

Super cute and nice quality. Love the high waist and the cut. However it does run 2 sizes small and there is no stretch. Also the back pockets are sewn shut.

No back pockets!!

The item description says there are side and back pockets. That is a lie. There are no back pockets. There's a fake pocket in the back. It's not even one of those sewn-closed, cut apart when you purchase pockets. There is no interior pocket in the back. Do not buy. They also have a weird fit and run kinda big? I'm usually a size 6, but I got these in a 4 and they're still falling off.

Cute but run super small

Love the style but they run extremely small. I had to size up 2 sizes like other reviewers. And instead of trying them on I just grabbed my normal size so I ended up having to go all the way back to exchange. And now I’m relieved to see other ppl had the same issue with size because I was thinking I gained 20lbs over night.

Small in waist

Cute style and color but this brand always runs small for me in the waist. There is absolutely no stretch. If you have a small waist to hip ratio then probably true to size but otherwise size up.

Fake pockets!!

Why, in this the year of our lord 2025, are the stores still selling shorts with fake pockets?! It looks like there are back pockets on these. There are no back pockets. They are fake. This is unacceptable. That is all.

Runs HUGE

I am a standard 0/25 across the board, but target has been so off on their sizing lately. I recent purchased a pair of jeans which a size 2 fit me. I purchased my normal 0 in these, and when I say that they were HUGE on me... A 00 wouldnt have even fit.

Perfect length

These are great shorts, perfect length. They wash well and do not shrink or wrinkle once dried. I think I may be between sizes as the size 4 is a bit loose. Going to try the size 2 which I imagine may be too tight in the waste. Regardless, these shorts are a winner.

Great shorts!

These shorts look and feel very high end. If you have a pare shape with wider hips and thighs like myself I recommend going up a size or 2. Even with going up a size the shorts still look tailored and my thighs have room to breathe. Also keep in mind that these shorts are 100% cotton so they will likely shrink a little after a few washes.
