Near excellent ...

Yes, I recommend this

V good fit/ vol; the seat and (medium) length are just right pour (skinny 178cm) moi. Side adjusters and pleats add formality to the aesthetics. On-seam pockets would be perfect: shame Marks aren’t doing them this summer. Nothing on the market outclasses this style for the price. A timeless piece. Hope the dye/ material holds in the (with care) washing.

Smart casual

Yes, I recommend this

Good fitted shorts with neat lines. The side adjustment tags are good and eliminated the need for a belt.
