Awesome not slim shorts

Awesome not slim shorts
The title claims “slim fit” which almost made me skip these, but thankfully, these are not slim. I’m 5’ 7” and 155 pounds, but have plenty of room on my thighs. I can squat in these no problem!I wear a 30-32” waist, so got these in M. I tie these as much as I can, and it is a comfy fit. Smaller waist size, def go with small.If you are like me and don’t know inseams sizes: I measures these from the top of the leg opening, they are 14.25” long. That should give you an idea on the length.As far as Goodthreads go, these are my firs pair, loved the feel and fit, so bought a second. Great price.
Thank you for your feedback

the deal was too good, I imagine that is the reason they no longer have it in stock and "don't know if they will ever"

I ordered based on the sizing chart and unfortunately these run a bit smaller than expected. Besides that, the length is as advertised and the quality is great. I just wish the waist size was more accurate

5.0 out of 5 stars For a big fella with big thighs, I couldn't ask for more.
Reviewed in Canada on July 13, 2023
Size: XX-LargeColor: Dusty OliveVerified Purchase
I am tall and fat and I have big thighs and a big butt. Thus, buying men's trousers and shorts can be really, really frustrating. Few brands imagine that even fat men might actually have a round butt and thick thighs. On the rare occasion a brand even attempts to make garments with those proportions, they always market them as "athletic fit," which probably isn't inaccurate, but does always crack me up, because while I may have muscular thighs, it's mostly from hauling around my own hefty body. Don't get me wrong, I like how I look, and I'm happy in my skin, but I hate that clothes are never, ever made for me. Even those that fit are marketed towards "athletes" lol.

Anyways, all of that to say, these Amazon brand shorts fit like a glove. I can't fathom why. The Amazon brand chino joggers also fit me really, really well. They're really affordable and I don't have to bother trying on a thousand pairs, so I'm chuffed to bits. But I am still baffled why of all the clothes brands in the world, I get my most comfortable trousers and shorts from a brand and manufacturer I'll never know about because Amazon markets and sells the products as their own.

Fit great in the but and thighs. The length of the inseam is ideal. They don't sag in the butt or the crotch. And the material is pretty comfortable, and quality enough to be fashionably worn with a lot of different looks.

Love the shorts!! I’m glad I read the reviews though because they definitely fit big. I’m a size 32 waist and the small fit perfect, a medium would have definitely been too big.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality shorts at a decent price
Reviewed in Canada on July 5, 2022
No complaints from me. The shorts are of good quality and fit true to size. It's nice to find a pair of shorts that are not too long, sit well above the knee and have good movement. I'm not a fan of the longer shorts trend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot boy summer!
Reviewed in Canada on May 3, 2022
I bought a pair of these last summer in XL and was surprised at how much room I had. Regardless, they became THEE summer short, and I wore them so often they became permanently bleach stained. Ew gross I know.

This year I bought them in a L and will continue to strut my stuff all summer long! They are super comfy, easy to wear and easy to wash. As mentioned they do fit a bit big. I’m about 6’1” and weigh in at 280. I’m too heavy so I wear them under my gut.
