Not the best.

For medium length shorts they still quite short. Feel tight in the leg area when seated

Lovely fabric and fit! Not too wide in the leg like some other makes. M&S can always fit the bill

The shorts are so comfortable and look great with t-shirt or shirt if a little more formal. I have three different coloured shorts that go with anything , the black shorts will be used for my upcoming festival season

As I prefer cargo shorts to normal ones, I chose this one because I didn't already have cargo shorts in this shade. They are an excellent fir, and I am very pleased with them.

Beautiful, well made shorts. Plenty of pockets. Fit us perfect with the option of using a belt. Really comfortable to wear. Holds their colour after washing.

Nice quality but not as elastic as I thought and waist size a little small compared to a pair of moleskin jeans I bought recently.
