Review on Women'S Elastic Waist Summer Shorts With Pockets - Casual & Comfortable Fit by Jasmine Davis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

OK But Not So Light & Comfy

So SoThese shorts aren’t bad, but not exactly as product description promised. First, fabric is listed as "95% polyester and 5% spandex, loose, casual, comfy, super soft, light fabric”, but the pair I received is 100% cotton, feels like a brushed canvas/linen material, and is slightly stiff. Tag states "100% Cotton, Wash Separately; Professional Dry Clean Recommended; Made in China”. This tells me the color is likely to bleed, and that the pair may shrink or be a problem to wash. While I don’t mind hang to dry, I was looking for loose, comfy, casual, easy to maintain summer shorts. Dry cleaning is not on that list or a way I plan to maintain casual summer shorts. I got the brown pair, so I’m also wondering what they might look like if they bleed in the wash. Also, based on the size chart, I went with a Large. I’m 5’5 1/2, 140 lbs. These fit a bit big and because the fabric doesn’t hang as loose as the photo, it looks like too much fabric. So I could have likely sized down to Medium. The waist is stretchy, fabric in hips is amble, and the draw string works, so if between sizes, size down. I do like the deep side pockets and color, and with the price point being inexpensive, quick delivery, hot temps approaching, and likelihood that the 100% cotton will shrink and maybe soften in the wash, I might keep these and see what happens. But I ordered 3 pairs in different colors and will likely choose my favorite and send the other 2 back.

Pros
  • Fits good looks good n washes up great
Cons
  • No adjustable waistband to ensure proper fit
