Great shorts for school

Yes, I recommend this

Bought for my fussy 13 year old for school. She loves them! Good length and can be easily rolled up to make even shorter, which my daughter does! The material is a bit too synthetic for my liking but willing to forgive as style and comfort is good.

Short shorts

No, I don't recommend this

My daughter much prefers shorts to skirt as she is very active. These are however quite short, especially in comparison to boys shorts of the same age. I went up a size to try to get them longer, the waist got bigger but the length hardly changed. It’s a shame because they look smart but the length is wrong.

Great shorts for girls fir school

My granddaughter was struggling in her first year of school with the length of her pinafores so we thought we would try these with tights. She loves them & gets on better with them than the pinafores

Great school short for all seasons

Yes, I recommend this

My daughter loves styling these with tights for winter. They’re a good length, comfy and practical, but as always far too big, even with the adjustable waist, for slimmer children (I sized down)

Nice shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Nice shorts with a bit of interest with the turn up, unfortunately too short for my eldest daughter as the school has a length policy but will keep for my youngest to wear.

The waist band is small

No, I don't recommend this

They are a lovely pair of shorts for school, but there is something wrong with the waist. I have ordered two sizes up from my daughter's normal size and they are still uncomfortable and tight. My daughter is a thin and tall girl, so I often buy the next size up for length and I have to usually draw up the elastic to it's tightest - not so with these shorts. Perhaps someone else can explain why, but my size 6-7 daughter is not fitting comfortably into the 8-9 size.

Fab shorts, daughter loves them

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely fitting shorts, my daughter loves them. Perfect for cartwheel and handstands and dangling from things at the park on the way home! She’s just turned 10 and the 9-10 size fit perfectly. Bought a second pair once she’d given the thumbs up. Only slight boggle is the price when compared to boys shorts. The classic ‘girls clothes’ tax 😢

Prefer more room the leg where they turn up but daughter says they are comfy. Seem good value and will hopefully last. Have buttons to tighten waistband if needed.

Very trendy little shorts my granddaughter absolutely loves them. She likes that they have a metal fastener rather than a button. Great quality material.
