Reviews

Almost big enough pockets

"I used ai to find me the lightest, black women's shorts with big pockets & this style we're recommended. Pockets don't even fit a basic sized phone. The search for pockets decent sized enough continues"

Great shorts for travel

"I bought these shorts to take when travelling, they are lightweight, quick drying and comfortable to wear."

— Ellen T. (5/5)

Great shorts for golf

"Bought these to play golf in and they are perfect. Lightweight but not clingy, not too hot, stretchy and comfortable and look neat. Great value on sale! I am a regular size 12 au in pants and the size 12 in these was perfect. They do stretch a tiny bit when wearing."

— Kate W. (5/5)
