Comfortable and look good

Really like these linen mix shorts bought in two colours the green and the navy. I vary between 12/14 and the 12 fitted best. Nice length not too short, happy with purchase.

Shorts don’t seem to suit me!

Yes, I recommend this

Nice shorts, good linen type material, good colour and good length, but despite this they just didn’t suit me. I’m quite short, 5/4, with quite short legs, so perhaps I’m just not made for shorts. I’m sure they’d look nice on someone taller and slimmer.

Holiday shorts

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these shorts to wear for my morning walk during my holiday. I like the high waist with the draw string, which makes them very comfortable. I haven't worn them yet, so am unable to comment on the wash, which is why I gave four stars

Great shorts for holidays

Yes, I recommend this

Really lovely linen blend shorts. They have a box pleat at the front and elastic waist and tie. Very easy to use in hot weather. Plenty of room loose style. Order normal size. Comfortable. Nice leg length especially if you are 50+

Nice shorts, although a little too short for me

Yes, I recommend this

Great pair of shorts but slightly too short for me. Returned them & bought a pair from a brand that does different length shorts. I’m 5’ 10” and in my 50’s so prefer them not too short. Saying that a great pair of shorts for any shorter ladies or taller ladies that wish to show their pins off. Would love it if M&S did different length shorts, even if in basic colours or just their best sellers.

A good buy

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these in advance of a holiday in April. They fit well, the material is nice and they are comfortable to wear. I have only marked them down one star as I don't yet know if they will crease when worn and how well they will wash.

Great shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Easy to pull on, decent-sized pockets, and a decent fit. The length is short enough but not too short. Size-wise, on the big side, I bought a size smaller, and they fit perfectly. Great quality and good price.

Nice versatile bright white colour

Yes, I recommend this

Not worn yet as purchased for holidays. We need to wear skin tone underwear underneath as very thin and see through. But look ok on, first time I’ve bought linen shorts. I usually wear denim cut-offs. So once I’ve worn them, can’t tell if I’m going to like them. As I’m not used to flared material around hips etc.
