Cute but run super small

Deebee - 3 days ago
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

Ray - 13 days ago
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.

Junglewife - 16 days ago, Verified purchaser
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.

Jmc - 22 days ago, Verified purchaser
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

MMJ - 22 days ago, Verified purchaser
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.

Bayli - 24 days ago
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.

These are the perfect length and look cute on! The fabric is thick enough to be forgiving and the cut is flattering!
