Reviews Summary
Customers say these shorts offer a comfortable fit with flattering length and nice stretch. Many appreciate the soft, quality denim and versatile style suitable for casual summer wear. Common feedback notes that sizing runs large, with most recommending sizing down one to two sizes. While many love the comfort and wear them frequently, some report issues with waist gaps, particularly for curvy body types. A few mention durability concerns, including strange lines appearing after washing and excessive stretching over time. Pocket depth and zipper length are occasional complaints, though most reviewers praise the overall quality and style.

    Cute but waist runs big

    The Maui 6" Short in White is a summer staple — lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear. Just a heads up: it runs big in the waist, so I'd recommend sizing down for a better fit. Once I got the sizing right, it's been perfect for everything from beach days to running errands.

    Best Denim Shorts

    First time purchasing from Carve Designs. The Maui 6" inch shorts are the best and most comfortable denim shorts I've ever bought. Great quality and fit. They are so comfortable and the length is perfect.

    Just what I was looking for...

    Love these shorts! Run a bit big - but I wanted them to be a bit baggy. Lots of stretch. My summer go to shorts

    my second pair

    I bought my first pair last year and they have gotten heavy wear. They are super soft and comfortable and I love the 6" length. The bit of stretch keeps them from being too restrictive. I do like to wear my denim several times before washing and they do get a bit baggy. This time I sized down one size and have found they are still comfortable but a bit more fitted without being too snug. I like having both sizes in my closet for different fits.
