Review on πŸ‘– Comfortable and Stylish: Hanes Women's French Terry Bermuda Short by David Dreher

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great shorts for small waists

These shorts are good with only one small thing I would change and here is my honest, unbiased opinion on them. First I would like to say that I almost never leave reviews but when I saw that there was nothing left on these shorts I thought I would. Because I think customer reviews are very helpful when I shop online. So here's the deal: I'm about 5ft 7" and about 110 pounds and I ordered the small in light steel (grey). They're Bermuda long and hit me just above the knee. It might be a little longer than I think would be ideal, but being a modest girl in my 40's I'll leave these Daisy Dukes shorts to the youth. The best thing about these shorts is the belt. It has an elastic, fully functional drawstring. If you notice my numbers above, I'm taller and on the thin side. I have many health problems and have lost a lot of weight in the last year. In fact, house clothes and quarantine are nothing new to me. Anyway, with the weight loss I've had trouble keeping my pants up because even the small pants are too big now. But these Hanes shorts actually fit my waist. They are very soft and didn't shrink in the wash, but I didn't tumble dry them. Now I would only change the pockets. While I'm glad they have pockets at all (that's a major selling point for me), the pockets aren't deep. These are what I would call welt pockets. I have an iPhone 11 and need to wedge it sideways. I also have to carry a neurostimulator remote the size of an iPhone 7 and it fits comfortably. So the pockets are really the only thing I want to change about it. Also, to all women with a small waist or between sizes: During my recent weight loss struggles I've been trying to find ways to buy a whole new wardrobe, one thing I've found is to pair with slouchy pants (like this one) waistband works with a wide elastic band. If you wear the shorts under your loungewear or pajamas and then tuck in the waistband, you'll have a tighter fit. Again, it's not perfect, but it's better than buying a new one when you might be in a temporary situation. I hope I haven't bored you too much and I hope this is helpful. blessed day πŸ€—β³
