4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2024
Size: 36Color: Khaki BrownVerified Purchase
I am old school raised in the sixties-seventies, so when I want a pair of shorts I don't want a pair of longs. These 5" inseam shorts fill the bill. Comfortable material and a good fit even with my more 'mature' physique. Since these are 98% cotton, I'll be cautious how I wash and dry them so they don't shrink too much. But at the price I'd say these are an all around good buy.

These are decent shorts. They are short but that's what shorts are supposed to be. Comfortable, pockets are standard, 2 back ,2 front, the front pockets are deep enough that things won't fall out but short enough not to hang under the hem. For the price can't be beat. Wish I could have gotten more the that price.

Fit good in waist. Length is great. Pocket insert is too long and hangs past the shorts. It will fit phone perfect if they just make it not as long.

It's always a shot in the dark ordering clothes online, but these worked out great. I'm 5' 7", so I like a shorter short. I ordered the 32" and they fit like a glove. Quality seems okay. I don't need to wear the same shorts for 12 years so at $30 bucks it's a good deal for me.
