Reviews Summary
Customers say these shorts are soft, comfortable, and come in appealing colors. The lightweight corduroy fabric feels great and washes well without needing ironing. Many appreciate the relaxed fit, mid-rise, and available lengths, particularly the 6" option. Common feedback addresses sizing inconsistencies—some note these run large and recommend sizing down, while others find them true to size. A few mention the waist can be loose, requiring a belt. Most reviewers are repeat purchasers who own multiple pairs in different colors.

    Super cute, love the color!

    I ordered in size 10 first, my typical size and they were just a bit snug in the waist/hips...they are low rise. I decided to exchange for a size 12 and they are just too big all over. I love the color and the feel of them, just need to find my fit.

    6" shorts run a tad larger in waist

    Ordered the Oahu 4" at a size 2 and fit perfectly. The 6" length feels and looks like a 4. Completely different fit. Not sure if that's a common pattern, but note to self: Size down for the longer version.
