    Nice quality shorts

    Yes, I recommend this

    Well made product, better quality than I was expecting, and a good navy: colourfast or not will be determined after first wash. I do find M&S sizing all over the place now, and these shorts were the less generous side of the size ordered.

    Linen shorts

    Nice, airy shorts, good quality linen.The pant legs are a bit too wide, but that’s probably due to my slim thighs.

    Great shorts, but dodgy fit

    Yes, I recommend this

    These shorts are flattering and comfortable to wear - they kept me cool in the recent hot weather. However, the fit is not good - I tried a size 14 in the shop and, finding them a little tight around the waist (fine in all other respects), ordered a size 16 - well, these didn't feel any looser on the waist. Rather than send them back, I have moved the button along, but M&S need to review their sizing for these shorts!
