Nic shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Bought the blue denim shorts. They fitted well. Legs were cut off so when washed will likely fray. I turned the bottoms up a couple of times and that improved the look.

The fabric at edge is unraveling

No, I don't recommend this

These are a lovely fit and the fabric is comfortable. However, the unfinished edges of the legs started to unravel on its first wearing. Requiring me to cut long strands off. I’ve now washed them and more is unraveling so it looks a mess. So disappointed and poorly produced to actually do this. I’m considering having a hem done to protect edges…but that’s another cost on top. Not happy so would not recommend sadly.

Very Happy

Yes, I recommend this

Luckily I bought in a size 8 and a 10. Normally I’m a 10 but in M & S jeans I’ve been buying size 8. I needed a 10 in the shorts. I’m very pleased with them. Comfy good length and not tight in the leg.

Good shorts

The fit is good and a nice length. However the frayed hem unravelled quite a lot after the fist wash, hopefully it will stop!

Very small

These are very nice, but come up at least a size smaller than normal. Nice quality. Personally I do not like the raggy cut edge at the bottom, a proper fringe would have been fine, so I overlocked and hemmed them. Good shape though.

Lovely short but sizing on waist very small

Yes, I recommend this

I’m normally a size 12 in Marks and Spencer trousers and shorts but this year their sizing must have changed, can only just do up a size 14! Can’t size up as quite large on hips and legs. A shame as a really lovely short

Really like these shorts, so much so that I’m going to buy another pair and check out all my old ones that don’t fit me properly.

I needed longer length shorts so decided on Bermudas. A bit thicker than expected but a good length. Pleased with my purchase.

Ok but not as expected

No, I don't recommend this

Odd shape to the leg so stay at home shorts rather than casual going out

Perfect shorts!

Yes, I recommend this

Bought these to replace a much loved but worn out pair of Bermuda denim shorts. They look great and are of great quality denim. They do come up fairly small though and I opted for a comfier size 12 which gape slightly around the back of the waist rather than a snugger 10. You don’t notice the gap too much though and I think the larger size are a bit more flattering. Have worn these on holiday so far and looking forward to them lasting as long as my last pair!

Great shorts, love the colour.

Yes, I recommend this

Love the colour of these shorts, lovely rich cream . Bought for my holiday. These are a test fit, I like the length and the high waist but I did have to size up for the best fit. Usually wear a 10 but the 12 a comfortable fit. Would love more colours , maybe pastel shades? Bought the white and the black last year but the sizing was different then and a 10 was perfect.
