By Boston Betty from Boston MA on 08/15/2008 Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I love the idea of these shorts, but they were very low on the waist and not very flattering (on me).
Some background info - I am a size 10, with a small waist and medium sized hips, in my mid-40's. I am fit, but with curves! If the above describes you, you may wish to look for other shorts!
By ekdugger from Wyoming on 08/12/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Flattering, Washes Well Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: A short that is practical, yet with a touch of style.
By furz from durango, co on 08/05/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Flattering, High Quality, Stylish, Washes Well Cons: Falls Too Low Below The Waist, Wrinkles Easily Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual, Eclectic Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Great summer short for water sports. Fabric is very light and packs up to nothing. Does sit low on the waist so just be aware as it does not state this in the details.
Everything I expected and more. By Windycitygal from Chicago, IL on 07/15/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Flattering, High Quality, Wrinkle-Free Best Uses: Comfort-Oriented, On The Weekend Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These were perfect. Comfortable, good fit, right length and can be worn shorter or longer. I ordered black which was fine
By SoCal Shopper from Costa Mesa, CA on 07/09/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Converts short to long, Flattering, High Quality Best Uses: Casual Work Days, Comfort-Oriented, On The Weekend, Summer walks Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual, Classic Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These lightweight shorts sit below the waist, which I like. They may run a little large. I'm in-between sizes right now; originally ordered the larger and sent back for the smaller size. I appreciate the versatility of length, from just above the knee (for a petite) to 4" shorter with the button-up tabs. Nice buttons, too. These will serve nicely for warm summer walks.

May buy more!
Nice shorts, but not quite as described. By chickenlady from Boston MA on 04/09/2008 Pros: Comfortable, High Quality Cons: Falls Too Low Below The Waist Length: Feels true to length Comments: Well made shorts, but be wary that they fall well below the natural waist.
Lightweight, great sun protection By jamie from Southern California on 03/27/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Great sun protection, Lightweight, Washes Well Best Uses: Beach, On The Weekend, River Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these mainly to get water-friendly shorts with great sun protection. These fit the bill. I wouldn't use them like board shorts to swim in, but they're great for beach walks, hikes and similar moderate activity, and they'll definitely make the pack list for my next river trip, outdoor music festival, and other places where I'm interested in sun protection. (This is where the two lengths make these shorts more versatile: at full length, they cover most of my thighs, which is great; where sun protection is less important, you can make them shorter. But I love the longer length, both for coverage and look.) They are also lightweight and quick-drying. Great pockets! The ripstop nylon fabric has that, well, nylon fabric look and feel, but that's the tradeoff for the light weight and better sun protection. The Tidal color is very cool.
By cherierowderrn from Austin, TX on 03/18/2008 Cons: runs small, too short Describe Yourself: Bargain Shopper, Casual, Conservative Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: These shorts were too short for me and fit much tighter than the capris by the same company. I ordered one size up from the capris because it said classic fit and the capris said relaxed fit but that was not enough. They were just not flattering on me but then I'm over 60 and need a bit more coverage on my legs.
