Disappointed

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.

Linen shorts, ideal for summer.

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.

Shorts

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Unusual feel to the fabric but ok. I had not realised it was fastened by a tape. I found I couldn't fasten that satisfactorily. If belt loops had been provided I could have used a belt to keep them up. As it was, I pulled the tape out and with difficulty pushed a slim belt where the tape had been. This involved a few snips here and there, which had to be stitched up. Now a useful pair of shorts held up by a belt, but would have been a lot easier if belt loops had been provided.
