We bought these for school uniforms as my son (3rd grade) has trouble with his button/zip fly. My first concern was whether they would look and feel like regular school uniform shorts rather than jersey or gym shorts. The good news is that they do! Apart from the elastic waist they look just like regular uniform shorts which was a big bonus for my son who is sometimes shy when he needs a pull up waist. I bought these shorts at the beginning of the school year and waited until the end to write a review. They were washed well, the stains disappeared immediately and they look the same as they did 10 months ago. I couldn't be happier. Size wise I found the waist to be true to size, my third grader fits a waist size 8 all year round. However, they are ridiculously long, like below the knee, especially if your child is small. However, it's very easy to hem them if it's tedious. Overall, these are the best uniform shorts I've found for a kid struggling with a button/zipper. It fitted perfectly and unless someone looked closely they couldn't even tell it wasn't standard shorts.
