I find these shorts are nice quality and thick cotton that fall just above the knee on me. I like the tailored fit, not to tight and not too baggy on me. The seams and finishes are good quality with internal edges nicely over-locked. So good so far...what I would say though is the sizing is a bit odd. I thought they were a UK size 16 when ordered (my fault for not seeing the US before the 16!) and when they arrived they say they are a UK size 20 (see photo), but they aren’t in my view. I feel that they are somewhere between a UK large 14 to small UK 18, depending on the overall build and shape of your body. For me the hip to waist ratio isn’t quite right as the waist is a few inches too big whilst the hips are fine. The approximate measurements are below for the pair I received to help you decide if these will fit your body shape.
- waist: 40 inches / 51 cm
- Hips: 46 inches / 117 cm
- Thighs top: 27 inches / 69 cm
- Thighs bottom: 22 inches / 56 cm
- Inside leg: 9 inches / 23 cm
Overall these are a nice quality pair of shorts if the sizing works for you. I can still wear these as they have belt loops so I can wear them belted.
