I ordered the wrong size in my review

The shorts are very good but it would help if they had a size chart. My grandson is a size 8 and had to drop other size charts. I ordered a medium size 10-12 and they will float on it. I'm just saving them for next year!

Pros
  • Breathable and comfortable. my son loves this
Cons
  • These shorts are too long for boys. The waist is normal but the length is ridiculous

Kiddos is the favorite of the best in my rating

My son's favorite shorts! They're not hot, but they're not too skinny either. Comfortable elastic band at the waist. they are long They have bags. I had to buy more than one because he wears them all the time. If your little one is small, they will look like a Capri.

Pros
  • This is a great price but be aware they are a little big!
Cons
  • These are transparent shorts where everything is visible.

Didn't fit as expected and one leg is shorter and stitched

They did NOT look like the black and red ones - misstitched, transparent and smaller than the others we bought. All the colors are different, and even the same colors on the second purchase are different from the first purchases. Very sad because when you can get good ones, they're good shorts.

Pros
  • Everything fits perfectly, will definitely order Southpole products again.
Cons
  • My teenage son is about 5ft 1 or 5ft 2 inches tall, these shorts came down to his knees.

NO ***Hidden drawstring for adjustment

No drawstring - doesn't drag and runs small. My son rolls them up :- / Cheap and good for around the house - if I took a smaller size they might be good for running outside, but judging by his actual size they are too loose to run inside without to slide down.

Pros
  • The waist is perfect, the length is a little long, but my son is also a little hoarse these days.
Cons
  • Limited color options

Good Not so good

My son loves these shorts. The only problem was the seam. I had to sew up the tear in the seam after just one wear. I think it has to do with the mesh but a bit more quality control would have helped. In their defense I also bought the same shorts in 2 different colors and had no problems. You might think twice before buying them if you are not good with a needle and thread for sewing minor repairs.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Crumpled

Great shorts, they run big, I recommend going down a size.

I loved the shorts and my grandson did too but unfortunately this brand is not made like Nike or Under Armour, they run large. He usually wears a large 12/14, but they were a bit large at the waist and 3.4 inches below the knee. I recommend 1 size smaller than what your child normally wears. Updated 09/28/19. I kept the shorts for myself and ordered a size smaller for my grandson (medium 10/12). They fit perfectly.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Short instructions

Wrong fit, wrong size

At first the online size was the size of the outer label (L 14-16), but the inner label sewn on the back said "L 12-14". Obviously a big difference. Second, the crotch is very oddly low, so the fit is very odd. When my son wears shorts just below his waist, as he usually does, the crotch is so low that it's actually difficult to move and walk in them. When you lift the shorts to fix the crotch issue, they are no longer above the knee, but rather above the knee, with excessive lumps of tissue…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
