Shorts purchased for a pending holiday. Excellent material, very reasonably priced, nice fit. Ended up purchasing a 2nd pair in a different colour. Would usually buy a branded pair but these shorts were of better quality and a fraction of the price.

Purchased a longer leg but that actually made the inside of the shorts rise up when moving and felt uncomfortable

Disappointed

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed with these, the style and cut is not that comfortable, they needed a bit more room in the legs, the quality of the fabric could be better.

I bought these as requested, for my adult son’s recent birthday present. He hasn’t asked me to change them, so I presume he likes them.
