Lovely shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely fit, not as wide a leg as the linen rich shorts which I liked, so not swinging around your legs. Not too short and very comfy

Watch the sizes

Yes, I recommend this

The material is great, not too thick and comfortable. Unfortunately, I had to purchased several pairs of both in the double pack and single, to get any that fitted. The sizes were all over the place not Marks and Spencers usual quality control. Even the double pack measured different sizes.

Good quality and fit

I am not a huge wearer of shorts but wanted to buy a pair for “just in case”. The material is thick but not too thick and as a result they have a nice shape when on. The leg length is pretty much as shown on the model. I also like the fact they have a pocket on either side. I bought a Size 12 in black and I would say they are true to size and the black is a real black. Overall very pleased with my purchase.

Great quality staple wardrobe piece

Yes, I recommend this

I don't often wear shorts as I don't like my legs but needed a good quality pair for summer and holidays. I love the elasticated waist as I won't wear denim shorts due to comfort but these are so comfortable. Length isn't too short just right. They're great quality and will be a staple wardrobe piece for a few years to come.

No, I don't recommend this

These are awful, not as nice as last year's. Just elastic waist would be preferable, the tie waist sticks out when wearing t shirt. Better colours please, pink, yellow, red, orange as these are summer shorts not winter short colours.

But short

No, I don't recommend this

I love these shorts and the blue colour but dropped a point because the rise isn’t deep enough and leg length is short .i bought the matching top which is long in comparison so hides the shorts so returning the shorts as I matched the top with a different pair shame this wasn’t better thought out
