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.

    Love these shorts!

    I absolutely am crazy about these shorts, the color is RICH with a nice subtle sheen. They are super soft and comfortable and they have a slight amount of stretch. They are the most comfortable shorts I have. I got two other pair in the light green and these are my go to!

    Size

    I purchased the shorts in the color Quarry.My normal size is 4. Size 4 was too small. Exchanged for size 6 and they feel baggy. Really nice quality just wish I could get the size right

    Quality Has Really Gone Downhill

    I have been buying these shorts for years. First the 4” inseam and now the 6” as I have aged. I ordered the Coffee. Corduroy is REALLY thin and cheap looking now. The raw hem had white threads stuck in stitching. I have a pair of black from a couple of years ago, and they are way bette all around. Inconsistent has always been an issue. When I used to order 4”, I was a 2,4. My older pair of 6”, a 0. I tried a zero in Coffee, too tight. A size 2 loose waist, tight thighs. 5’2”, 105# athletic build.

    For the price point and lack of quality, I will no longer be purchasing.

    Comfortable and easy

    Love me new shorts. They are soft and comfortable with just the right amount of stretch. Color is bright and fun. Love them. They run slightly on the bigger side so I had to size down.
