Boyshorts for the curvy ladies
So, I have thighs.. and typically hate any kind of short with an inseam less than 5 inches, so I took a risk with this one. I am so glad I did because I love the way they fit. I got a size large, and I would say they run a little big but not to the point they feel like they're falling off, just big enough to keep the ruching detail, not roll up between my thighs, and no muffin top action. My hip measurement is 42.5" and my waist is 32". If your measurements are smaller than mine, I would get a medium
Bathing Suit Bottom With Good Coverage
Nice fabric, nice styling, nice fit. I am 5’2” & 110 lbs and the size XS is a perfect fit. As a 60 yo person I appreciate the extra coverage this bathing suit bottom provides. My one complaint is the elastic waistband. It is not secured in any way so the elastic twists inside the fabric and then you have to spend time & frustration untwisting the elastic in the waistband. I finally got my sewing kit and “tacked” the elastic band in place.
Love the fit, hate the waistband
I really like the fit of these swim shorts. They are not overly revealing but yet don't look matronly. Unfortunately, the wide piece of elastic inside the waistband isn't sewn down and it often gets twisted. Untwisting it is a pain. I'd rather not return these and am hoping to find a seamstress who can fix them, but for the price I paid this shouldn't happen.
poor quality material
I thought that these looked cute, I got one pair, and they fit true to size. However, after wearing them, they started pilling in the butt area like something you'd see on a super super old pair of shorts. I returned them and ordered a new pair, thinking maybe it was just a one-off. The next pair, I wore once and they changed colors and were different shades of green. returned this pair as well.
Something About the Fit
I ordered these bottoms and wanted to love them. They seemed cute & fit correctly when I received them. (Though I try them with panties on). I was saving them for an event in August. So I decided to try them out before my intended event. Uh oh! The fit was not like I remembered. I tried swimming with them to see if they stretched. Sadly it did not. Since it isn’t gusseted in the panty it was very uncomfortable! I feel like I by no means have a shapely bottom either! It was washed & back it went!
Finally, Swim Shorts That Fit!
I’m 56 and I have been struggling to find good quality activewear that fits my round-in-the-middle pear shape. These swim shorts adjust, cover what I need and stay put. They also dry out better than soggy swim dressed or skirts. Love them!
High waist and boy short love
Perfect swim bottoms to go with the Sanitas top. Love that these are high-waisted, and boy cut longer in the legs. The only downside is that they tend to "creep" up. But I will go with it--they are perfect for my active paddleboarding lifestyle.
Didn’t fit
I usually order a medium in swimsuits, so I ordered these in a medium…. They fit alright around the butt and legs, but the waistband was HUGE! Maybe they’d fit better on someone with different proportions? Really nice color and durable material though!
great!
Love them enough to order another. The size for extra small is true to size. Of course, gets a little larger if it gets wet.. But, it did not fall off of me in the water!!!
Comfy swim shorts
This is a cute swim bottom if you need a bit more coverage for certain activities. It is nice to have the ties on the sides for adjustment. They are very comfy.
