Was looking for a more matte black. This is shiny bathing suit fabric. Fit is as expected, I'm 5'5' 155 lb, 33 natural waist, 44 hip, ordered a Large and fits well. Hides the upper thigh/bum area and will be good for the beach with my 3 littles and in laws. Haven't tried in water yet, so don't know how it'll function for real-time use.

I was excited to get these, however, the size and type of fabric made it hard to love them. The cut is cute. Too bad the fabric and sizing was off. When they got wet they were even bigger and I was worried they would slide down. When I used the drawstring to tighten them to fit they were bunched up around the waist.

These swim shorts are great. They are flattering on an over 40 mommy body. I'm buying a second pair right now. Goes nice with bikini top or rash guard.

These shorts are great quality and the color is vibrant. The material is swimsuit material and dries quickly and is comfortable. Well made swim short. I will size up next time. I ordered a large, but next time will order an XL.
