Great short shorts. Great value for money and would definitely recommend it. The shorts are grey indeed, but I'd say that grey has warm undertone (google 'elephant skin pantone') that the actual colour. True to size too

My husband hates (and looks silly) in long shorts and it's been very hard to find decent quality, properly sized, short shorts, so I'm delighted to have found these (as is my husband!). They've got side pockets and button-secured back pockets, have no logo and fit properly so look quite smart. Ticks all the boxes. Dropped a star (really only half a star) because the dark navy has faded a little bit on washing. Have bought another pair in another colour and will buy more.

Brought these as I was looking for some green shorts at short notice prior to going on holiday and was not disappointed. I can't cope in the heat so look for light, slightly looser fitting clothing and they hit the mark in terms of comfort for sure. Pockets are deep so perfect for carrying a decent sized phone and wallet. My only critique would be that they run a bit large, I usually wear 32" waist trousers, however 31" still were a bit too loose on the waist for me, so exchanged for 30" which fit perfectly, so it may be something to consider if you're looking to order these

My husband isn't a big guy and has short legs so he really does not like the longer shorts. I haven't been able to find any anywhere until I looked on Amazon. These shorts are perfect for him. They are comfortable and wash up well and a good price.

Great value shorts. Fabric is so nice and soft, fit is nice, and color options are great. My son loves the style and comfort of these. They last for a long time. He’s had some for a couple of years that he wears at least once weekly, washes, and dries, and the color hasn’t faded or fabric thinned.
