[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shorts are really comfortable and a good length (I got the 6"). I like the material and the waistband is comfortable. I'm usually a size 4 and was recommended a size 6 on the website. I ended up buying the 4, but probably should've gone for the 6, as they are just a tad tight. I'm just going to keep the 4 since I don't want to deal with returns. The internal pockets aren't that big, which is unfortunate. I thought they'd go all the way down and they don't, so they can't hold much.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable in design I find myself reaching for these all the time. If I could change one thing about these shorts would be the fabric. It is durable but I personally find it a little rough when I first put them on. That being said I still love these and hope they make these in more colors.
Velcro side pockets not great.
