Super practical and comfortable

I will say though that they run a little big and wear out quickly during the day. Still very comfortable, but because it is a button closure and not zipper, it can get a little frumpy looking. I personally dont care because they’re comfy.

Def “relaxed”

I guess I missed the fact that these are a relaxed fit. Wish I’d sized down because these are a bit too loose for my personal preference and are pretty stretchy. Comfy though and a good length but not particularly flattering on my frame.

Super comfy and good for multiple wears!

Recommend sizing up if you have larger hip/thigh. The waist was a little looser on me but it made for an overall comfy fit! Great casual short for summer.

Love these!

4" inseam is nice because they're not too short but not too long - I wore them a ton and kept them all month! I considered buying them and will definitely rent again. They fit well and stretched out perfectly over time.

Almost bought these as they are basically the perfect pair of denim shorts. Ultimately I need a smaller size which is the only reason I didn't.

Loved the shorts. Came with tags. Would rent a size down next time- considered buying but want to see how the smaller size fits.

Comfortable fit

I have a lot of trouble with jeans or cutoffs of any kind. These have just the right give to feel loose but have structure. I like that they don't fit tightly around my thighs.

I really loved these shorts. They do stretch a little and that makes them super comfy but also could have probably sized down a bit

Great Shorts

I’m over the booty shorts (or maybe I’ve aged out hehe). These aren’t too short but aren’t grandma. Fit well, if not a little baggy. Would love to have them in my wardrobe forever.

Received NWT. Just too big in the waist. Would try again in smaller size.

Cute but stretched out

These were fun shorts to wear. I loved the exposed button fly. Unfortunately, as I wore them they stretched to the point that they were riding up and I'd constantly have to pull them down. I will say that I wore them several times and was tempted at one point to purchase.

A smidge shorter than expected

Came new with tags on! Always a fun surprise when that happens. I feel like these were TTS in the waist, but they were a bit shorter than expected — fit more like a 3.5” inseam instead of 4”. I ended up only wearing them around the house
