Shame

No, I don't recommend this

Great quality. Shame about the length from waist to crutch. I am only 5ft 2” and I find them too tight underneath especially when seated for long periods. Unfortunately I wore them first time whilst driving to my holiday destination otherwise I would have sent them back.

Whats happened to your sizing!!!!!

No, I don't recommend this

Love the look of the shorts. So dissappointed they had no lycra in them , i thought i would give them ago. Looked at the reviews and went up a size. Perfect around the hips but the waist is so tight. Hoping they will stretch. If i went to the next size they would be too big. I could always rely on Marks and Spencers sizing until now.

Dusappointing

No, I don't recommend this

Too short. Fine for younger people. M&S are not catering for the older folk who have always shopped in M&S in the past.

Really pleased

Yes, I recommend this

Really pleased with my denim shorts, fitted perfectly and the right length for me as I am only 5ft. I have had problems with M&S sizing lately in all clothes but these were just right.

Ok but sizing off

I like the look of these but they were very snug and uncomfortable around the waist. Shame but I've returned them. The M&S shorts I bought last year are the same size and a great fit, I still wear them this year.

White denim shorts

Sizing not accurate. Too small. If you are a size 10 you need to order a size 12.

Sizing completely off!

No, I don't recommend this

I don’t know what is going on with M&S sizing at the moment. I bought these in one size up from my usual size so that they would be super comfortable in the warm weather. These shorts are huge on my hips and tiny on my waist (not a problem I’ve had before) so have returned. I can be one size in one product and at least 2 sizes different in another. Only really worth getting if you can try on in store.

Great fit- colour not as it’s pictured

Yes, I recommend this

Great fit. I’m 5’5ft size ten. Very comfortable for a mid 50s lady. Colour is great but not what I saw in the picture on the website. I ordered light indigo but these are much darker. I’d like to order again and get the lighter version but don’t want to get another pair of darker ones.
