Reviews

Good basic ultralight travel/light hiking shorts

"I like these and already own a pair in another colour. But they do have a significant flaw in that the front pockets are far too shallow for modern mobile phones in my opinion (and my phone isn't that big). It will fit, just, but you need to be careful sitting and getting up that it doesn't fall out. It is because of the slanted pocket design. It needs to have less of an angle at the sides and that would fix the problem. Hence I deducted a star. Otherwise a very useful travel item."

— John W. (4/5)

Awesome product.

"Awesome product."

— Steven D. (5/5)

Best shorts for a women with a flat rear end

"These men's shorts fit better than any women's shorts ever do. Nice length not past the knee but also not too short when you sit. Handy pockets that sit flat and not stick out. Lovely material that doesn't make you sweat, not a heavy material. Great fit and look, that you can wear any where as material makes them look classy."

— Julie F. (5/5)

No fly

"Shorts are very fine but no fly . There’s no hint in the description."

— John J. (2/5)

Perfect for travel

"Bought these shorts to take to overseas rather than thicker cargo shorts Great length & fabric Roll up easy in suitcase and do not take up very much space"

— Peter H. (5/5)

Terrible if you have a phone

"The pockets are too shallow to carry a phone. My phone will fly out of my pocket when sitting down or going up stairs. The waist band is also useless, with no ability to add a belt, so be prepared to constantly needing to lift these shorts up. Don't bother with these if you intend to use the pockets."

— Richard W. (1/5)

Perfect Shorts for travel

"Perfect size. Comfortable fit. Lightweight and packable."

— Martin C. (5/5)

Ridiculously comfy shorts

"Bought one pair and loved them so much I rushed out and bought another pair. Super light, comfy, and versatile enough for a morning sup paddle, or lunch at a nice cafe."

— Bill W. (5/5)
