I'm an LL Bean fan... But ordered these based on sale/good price. I tried them on and the fabric, at least in the light kakhi color I ordered was thin and the pockets showed throug

These are terribly uncomfortable. They make me hot in just a few minutes. They aren’t comfortable against the skin. I would gladly pay LL Bean prices for 100% cotton but they’ve ab

Lightweight shorts

Height: 5'10"
Fit: True to size
Used for: Casual or Every Day
They're a nice weight for warm summer days! They are true to size for my build, and a decent value at the current sale pricing. Otherwise a bit expensive I feel.

I bought these because I’ll be learning to play golf next year and you have to wear certain shorts on the courses and cargo shorts aren’t allowed.

Height: 6'2"
Fit: A little large
Used for: Travel, Relaxing, Casual or Every Day, Paddling, Running or Fitness, Hiking
Like the fit overall. I generally avoid stretch waistbands, but this waistband is not too stretchy. Bought 2 pair for vacation. They seem to breath or did not feel heavy and hot

Poor design
Weight: 150-160 lbs
Height: 5'9"
Fit: True to size
Returned because the light fabric color is somewhat see-through, such that you can see the back pocket liner through the butt -- not a good look!

Nice Shorts

Height: 5'11"
Fit: A little small
Used for: Relaxing, Casual or Every Day
These are very nice shorts, but are a bit snug on me. I have saved them, as I hope to lose some weight for them to fit perfectly. I have many 38" jeans and shorts, including others

The cotton poplin material is very crisp and light weight, perfect for hot muggy weather. I think they're a bit dressier looking than chino shorts, but they can easily be dressed

The color is great and the fabric has enough stretch for everything, but the fit was off. Way to big and blousy in the legs. Felt like I was wearing Cargo shorts from the late 90
