My favorites
These were my favorite shorts. I had 8 pair and my feelings were hurt every time I have loved a pair to fraying. Especially now that they are no longer available. I believe discontinuing them was a poor decision, it certainly was for my liking.

Waste is true to size. I like the 8.5" inseam as they are a shorter than the regular size.

Great shorts for men that aren't 16 any more! Hahaha.
I bought them for my husband for Father's Day, he loved them! He has very large thighs and has a really hard time finding shorts that fit and are comfortable not only for every day but for working in the yard and physical work. The only request I would make is they are available in other colors...all I could get were gray.
