Course fabric best in my review

Overall, great to wear around the house on a hot day. It would be perfect if the material was a softer and had more flow. It would probably be more flattering as well.

Pros
  • Women
Cons
  • Unflattering on certain body types

Buy these - you'll love them

I was apprehensive about buying shorts off amazon, but the try before you buy, sold me. I love these. So comfy and they have a lot of stretch to them. I have more athletic thighs, so I always worry things will be tight, not these! They are perfect. I will see how they wash and dry, but I have already ordered another pair in blue.

Pros
  • The shorts are perfect for running errands
Cons
  • The pockets can sag and create a lumpy appearance

Nice but not correct fit.

Too small. Ordered my size and they are way to small. Then I saw they were made overseas, which those sizes are always way to small. Great for junior sizes, not women.

Pros
  • The elastic waistband is perfect for women who want comfortable clothing that won't dig in or restrict movement
Cons
  • Not suitable for athletic activities or high-intensity workouts

Material is not soft

The shorts ran quite a bit larger than I expected. I could easily go down a size. I felt like the shorts wore me, not the other way around. I think the stiffness of the fabric contributed to the odd fit. I thought the material would be more flowy like the pictures. Washing them may soften it up, but I am returning them so I can't confirm that.

Pros
  • The elastic waistband is firm enough to keep the shorts in place but not too tight
Cons
  • The elastic waistband can cause the shorts to slip down during physical activity

Awkward fit when you move in them

Really wanted to like these, but they were stiff (may soften up over time but didn’t feel like the linen shorts I’ve tried elsewhere) and wore really strangely. When I walked, they bunched up right over my lower abdomen. (Like thanks, I don’t need any help with that area looking a wee bit fluffy.) I’m 5’4”, 140# and ordered medium, for reference. It wasn’t a fit issue because larger or smaller wouldn’t have worked elsewhere. Nice color, so can say that. But they were returned. They don’t fit…

Pros
  • Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry
Cons
  • The drawstring can create an ill-fitting look

Doesn't feel or look as expected

The pictures make it look like it'll be a comfortable fabric, but it's way stiffer than advertised. Also because of that the shorts sit weird and look nothing like I thought they would.

Pros
  • The shorts are easy to care for and can be machine washed
Cons
  • The pockets can be too small to hold certain items

Canvas like material

I love these shorts. They are loose fitting, flattering and can be dressed up or down! The only issue I have had with them is that I think they shrunk in the dryer 🙃 they still fit, but aren't as loose as the they were prior to the dryer. Another note is they are more of a canvas like material than a cotton, which actually worked out better because they are super light weight. I plan on ordering more colors. If you are looking for a cute, light weight short this is probably it!

Pros
  • They are easy to match with other clothing items
Cons
  • The elastic waistband can cause discomfort when bending over

Not great but wearable

The shorts are okay. I was hoping they’d be stretchy but they aren’t at all. They are on the baggy side (but not too baggy where they look frumpy) which helps them be more comfy. Pockets are a good size but they are pretty open on the side meaning to have to be careful your phone doesn’t fall out. Also they’re higher waisted than I expected. Because the material isn’t stretchy at all, they’re pretty uncomfortable to sit in because the legs and the waistband dig in. Also they aren’t shaped that…

Pros
  • The pockets are large enough to hold a phone and other essentials
Cons
  • Not suitable for a professional work environment

Cotton, Not Polyester

These short fit well, are comfortable, and are cute. The only issue is that the description said they were polyester, and the label in them says 100% cotton. Rather than take a chance, I washed them cold and hung them to dry. But I went ahead and ordered two more colors. The 2nd one I ordered said it was "royal blue," but the color chip was very dark blue, and what I wanted was navy, so I ordered it and sure enough, it was navy. I have ordered it in tan now. I would have prefered polyester, but

Pros
  • They are perfect for women with active lifestyles
Cons
  • The pockets can add unnecessary bulk to the hips

Material is stiff on my review.

Not what I was expecting from the description. Material is stiff and it the kind that will fade after washing. Returning.

Pros
  • Short but really cute
Cons
  • The material is rough not comfy

Bought several pair.fabric was inconsistent

Wanted to update the review. I bought the black and navy shorts and a green flowered pair. The fabric differed from the solid to the flowered pair. The flowered pair were considerably more comfortable however they pilled on the first day from my purse touching them while I walked. All had too small of a waist band so the elastic folded over and was uncomfortable. The sold pairs were also uncomfortable as the fabric was heavy and the back side got stretchy and felt like a wet diaper. Fabric is…

Pros
  • The drawstring design allows for a custom fit
Cons
  • Can create a frumpy appearance if not paired with the right clothing

Love these shorts! best in my review

I love the comfort & style. We live in NY but winter in FL so I can get lots of wear out of them! Thank you Revain! Can create an unflattering silhouette when sitting down.

Pros
  • These shorts are ideal for walking, jogging, or any other outdoor activity
Cons
  • Can create an unflattering silhouette when sitting down

Very cute but fabric not what I expected

these are very comfortable but not flattering or stretchy. Really bummed because they look so cute in the photo but I have returned them

Pros
  • The drawstring shorts are made from high-quality materials
Cons
  • Not suitable for a business casual dress code

Summer wardrobe staple

These are little dressier than standard shorts and are little longer for us taller gals. I am just shy of 5'9" and these hit me about a 1/3 of the way down the thigh. People say these feel like polyester but they feel like cotton with a bit of heft to me. Not soft but not rough. Somewhere in the middle. I bought the same pair in Green but those fit more like a large on me so I am returning for a small. I have seen other reviews stating the fit can vary by color and I would have to agree based…

Pros
  • WG77215-P
Cons
  • Not very breathable material

Different colors have different material

I bought these shorts in the cream color in a size Medium and they fit perfectly. They were soft and comfortable so I decided to order a pair in black. This pair was made with a different material, much more stiff. I also had to get a larger size in the black. I’m not sure why there was such a big difference between the two sizes. Just a heads up

Pros
  • These shorts are available in a range of colors and styles
Cons
  • Can show sweat easily

Runs large/bulky waist design

These run big a bit. i got the gray camo pair. looks cute with a big shirt, but after washing it, the waist part gets too bulky. Its like the string is in there and that's good, there's some elastic which is normal, but the bulkiness i think comes from the type of material. its folded over encasing the string and elastic, and then it feels a bit like one of those bathrobe ties after you get it out of the dryer. It wouldn't matter if it wasn't so hot but that bulkiness makes it pretty…

Pros
  • The drawstring shorts are perfect for lounging around the house
Cons
  • The drawstring can create an unattractive bulge
