These shorts have been a lifesaver postpartum. They offer me a bit of shape while also giving enough stretch for me to feel comfortable during the postpartum weight changes. I am disappointed because the seam or the back pocket is wearing out and has torn already. I also check on the hem seam occasionally because I feel like it will unravel, but it has held up so far. I will still probably go back and buy another pair. The pocket will be easy to fix and I love the length of these shorts along with how incredibly comfortable they are. Not to mention that I can dress them up or dress them down.I was originally looking for something made of cotton yet durable enough to last through the season. The shorts are not soft they’re a thicker material but they sure did the job of slenderizing.The only negative is the waistband is larger than I likeI like theses enough to order them in every colorIt could have been more polyester material when made instead of cotton.Ok , so I bought this product for my daughter and she wears a size XL. The reviews I read suggested to go up a size or 2 and I did.. it fits her PERFECTLY! Very good quality but you should definitely go up 2 sizes. No complaints.I really felt these shorts fit well, looked good (can be worn casually or dressed up with heels and a fancy top)! Bought a pair in another colour and usually I’m not a shorts personI had to return the first couple of pairs that I ordered because they were too big, so I would suggest sizing down, but once I got the right fit, I couldn’t be happier. I bought the same brand a couple years ago and the sizing was small then, so I think they overcorrected, but I don’t care what the tag says as long as they are quality and good looking and these are both of those.
