Nice weight shorts. They do run big so size down. There was quite a big difference between med and large. I have not washed them yet so not sure how they wash. But they are 100% cotton (20% recycled cotton), so keep that in mind.

They were very high waisted, which in turn made them really wide on the bottom of the short and I didn’t care for that look.

These are cute - comfy too! The jean material is a little heavy, nice deep pockets. Runs a little big, keeping the small bit I’m usually a medium.

These shorts are super cute and comfortable! Love the 4 inch inseam, elastic waist, and drawstring. However, there is a significant sizing different in the waist between a medium and large. I am an 8/10 and a medium was a bit too snug and the large was very loose. Went with the large for the comfort.

I'm a 6/8 s/m with an athletic build, and I went with a small vice the medium, and the shorts (both colors) fit well. I do wish the inseam was a little longer, but good for wearing around the house or at the beach.

I don’t know how some are saying these are true to size! I usually wear a medium, but the smalls are big on me! I would need an XS but of course they’re sold out.

I got the xs and I look like I’m swimming in them. I look absolutely ridiculous. I do t know why they made these to run so big but they look absolutely hideous.

I’m between sizes and sizes down. Love the length and the drawstring waist and the wide leg openings. These are so cute I bought both the blue and the white!

They do run a little loose, but sticking to my true size worked perfect. That’s the style of them.. I guess it depends how you want them to fit. I’m a size 6/8 and purchased a medium. I’m anticipating on a little shrinkage as well.

These are so cute! I think they're true to size. I'm a pretty solid size 8 / 30" these days, and the medium fit great.

Anonymous - 4 days ago, Verified purchaser
Very cute, but they run really big. I am 5’9”, 145 lbs and the medium fit way too baggy when that would be my normal size. They unfortunately are sold out of size small so I will be returning the mediums. At least I will get my $20 back because I ordered them the day before they went 40% off!

Love these shorts! But I wish I hadn’t followed the reviews and just got my regular size. Sizing down one did not work for me. These fit TTS for me.

Absolutely love these! I’m a size 12 typically and a large fit perfectly, have some extra room but can make them as snug as I want with the drawstring. These are a summer must have and sooo flattering especially for postpartum.

Love these, but SIZE DOWN! I’m typically a small and took a chance on XS after reading the reviews and so glad I did! Great length, comfortable, and love the high waist.
