Review on Women'S Denim Hot Shorts Mid Waisted Summer Casual Pockets Short Pants by Heather Young

OK, I am well over 50, and grew up in the first generation to cut off their jeans and fray the edges. I thought my era of wearing these was long gone, but I recently lost over 20lbs. so I thought, lightening deal, why not try ? I am a size 10 in pants, and ordered a large based on other reviews, since I cannot stand tight fitting clothes due to a slightly herniated disk right where most waistbands hit. They are adorable, lightweight and have a decent amount of stretch while still looking like authentic denim. I chose the most faded jean color, because you wouldn't cut the jeans until they were worn out and ripped at the knees ! They look great. I am so tickled with this purchase, you can't imagine.OK, so fast forward a year, and I wanted an extra pair of these in both denim and white and ordered the same size as last year (2019). I could barely close them, and I have lost weight since last year. I compared them to my old ones, and they are about 2 inches smaller around the waist. I am a size 10 - the large fit last year. So I reordered in XL, and they fit fine, perhaps just a tad loose. But holding them up with my pair from last year, the new XL matches up with the old L almost exactly. So, since my earlier stellar review made them a hit, the manufacturer decided to cut corners and save an smidgen of material on each pair ?My conclusion is they are still fabulous shorts - but now (2020) you need to size up.
