Comfortable boys summer shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Bought for my 7 year old grandson who is growing apace. Bought a bigger size to accommodate his rapid height growth. The shorts are soft cotton fabric and are not abrasive on his skin. They have a drawstring so the waist can be adjusted and come in a variety of colours so can be mixed and matched with a wide selection of tee-shirts. They have washed and tumble dried well with little/no shrinkage, so think they will a durable and very useful addition to his summer wardrobe.

Lovely quality but sizing seems way off. Enormous. Age 3-4 was better suited for my average sized nearly 6 year old, so returned.
