A great fit, look good and would love to buy some more but the fact they are in such demand it is not possible. So good I am waiting for them to come into stock.

Great quality shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Needed a new pair of shorts. I like the ones from M&S as they have plenty of styles and sizes. The black ones I bought are very strong and useful for both walking and gardening.

Good product, but...

Yes, I recommend this

The shorts are nice. Good quality. It's just a real shame that they are only available in 'medium' length. I wish they were available in 'long' length. If they were, I would buy at least two more pairs.

Husband liked these but had to return as medium length is too short. I thought they were a bit thick material but he says they were comfortable
