Great but not if you are short

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

No, I don't recommend this

They are a nice pair of shorts, and great if you have a little extra around the middle as it tucks you in, however, if you are 5ft2 or shorter and on the slim side, the waist comes up very high and if you sit down it practically touches your bra. So they are very restrictive and uncomfortable.

Fit snug

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

No, I don't recommend this

I love these shorts for the style and length, however, as per many other reviews, I found the sizing to be a little snug. Ordered a 12 which certainly for me with M&S, usually allows a bit of wriggle room however, I feel like they only become looser after a few hours. Shame really as a 14 would be too big.

The perfect denim short!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

These are the most flattering, comfortable denim shorts. I’ve spent years trying to find a perfect pair and these totally fit the bill. Not too long, not too short with a slight stretch and nice fitting waist. Bought in both colours. Like others, I sized up in these but love the fit and price.

Great length and quality - I sized up a couple of sizes so that they weren’t too tight and now they are the perfect loose fit

Very comfortable and flattering. Had to size up as small in the waist but still look good Disappointed they have sold out or would have bought a second pair.

Sizing wrong yet again. Had to size up which made the legs wider but I’ll keep them as fed up of returning clothes.

Lovely shorts, but tight on waist

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Perfect fit on the leg but waist a bit too tight. Didn’t want to go up a size as the leg would be too loose.

The Goldilocks of denim shorts!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

I’ve been on the lookout for some denim shorts and these met my requirements. Comfortable, not too long/short and good colour/distressed look. I ordered in 2 colours and would have kept both but on one pair I couldn’t undo the button it was so stiff! Kept a size up (12) as no real give/slightly small.

Great shorts , very flattering (and I’m not blessed with a flat stomach - quite the opposite) worth trying a few on as the bottom looks as the distressed edge does a vary some are better than others -depending on your preference.

Flattering shorts

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Flattering fit and not to short. I brought a size 12 and although the waist is a bit tight,after a few hours the waistband became a bit more loose. I brought a second pair as I loved the fit of these shorts.
