Carhartt Canvas Carpenter Shorts (For Women)

Very comfortable practical shorts, but I had to order a few times to get the size right. I am normally a size 6, but the size 4 are the better fit.

These are great shorts! I now have three pair in different colors. I would buy this brand again!!!

Despite the other reviews, I think these shorts fit true to size. Durable, comfortable.

Casual dress.

These shorts are comfortable and look nice for casual where. I was looking for a pair of shorts to wear when I do carpentry jobs though, and was annoyed that these have no loop to hang a hammer. My husband's work shorts has one. Doesn't Carhartt know that women use hammers too? After all, they are called carpenter shorts! Other than this defect, I like the shorts and will keep them.

I don't understand why it says to get a size larger. The size I got that I usually wear was a bit baggy (but I will still wear them) so I also got a size smaller and that fit much better. If you like a very relaxed fit then I recommend getting the size you usually do, but if you prefer a more classic fit then get a size smaller. Also, the inseam is 8 inches (it said so right on the tag) not 7 1/2 inches. Canvas, like a lot of denim, is a stiffer material (as one reviewer pointed out) but I found the shorts to be very comfortable. I'm sure I will wear both pairs of shorts a lot over the summer.

A few more open pockets for work tools would be helpful. Why do men get the only functional work clothing? We women work.

Great Price, fit nicely, no binding. Nice length for a short.

I wear these to work in the office in the summer, hiking, and will get a pair for painting and carpentry jobs too. I love having the option of durable light shorts that fit my womanly shape. I am of medium height and weight and have a hard time finding shorts like these that are not cut for dudes, ie. room for things I don't have and no room for the things I do have..

I ordered these shorts because one of the other reviewers said she had a small waist and they fit well. I have a hard time finding bottoms that fit my hips, but don't gap in the back at the waist. These are great! They got even better after I washed them. Now they look like they are made for me, and I get the benefit of a few extra pockets. They seem to be good quality, and hopefully I will be able to wear them for a long time.
