Reviews Summary
Customers say these swim shorts are incredibly comfortable, lightweight, and dry quickly after water activities. They appreciate the soft material, flattering fit, and versatile styling that works for swimming, beach days, and casual wear. Many mention the convenient pockets and drawstring waist. Common feedback includes that the shorts run large, with several customers recommending sizing down. While most praise the modest length and comfortable fit, some note issues with the waistband design and mention the shorts work better as cover-ups than standalone swimwear since they're unlined.

    Great for over your bathing suit

    Fun, nautical stripes. Quick dry material. Only reason it’s 4 stars is the elastic waistband is a little wide.

    Great fit

    These will be my go to shorts for walking. Great fit and colors. I think they may b sheer if in lighter colors. I originally purchased XS due to other reviews saying they run a little large, but I found the smalls more comfortable in the legs. I’m small in most brands. The waist was a little roomy but I cinched it in with the drawstring.
