Nice quality shorts, although disappointed that they are black gingham-I thought they were going to be brown!

Great style and comfort.

Yes, I recommend this

Great style with comfort. Love the length and the elasticated waistband. True to size. I am usually a 10-12 and ordered both for choice. 10 fitted perfectly. Will look great for casual or smarter wear.

Okay

Ideal for around garden and beach. Material is synthetic which is great for packing but a little disappointed with quality. Okay for price point. Fit is fine.

Yes, I recommend this

Gorgeous fabric and great fit. A nice length for us older ladies, not too long and not too short. Very flattering. I have them in the brown and the black. I am normally a size 10 and they fit perfectly.

Nice summer shorts

Yes, I recommend this

Really nice shorts for the summer! Bought 2 colours as I fell in love with the way they fit and the material. These will be excellent during the summer break with a t-shirt so a great find.

Love them

I wanted a pair of lightweight shorts, suitable for the very hot weather but still looking reasonably smart and not like sports wear. These tick all those boxes, plus they are comfortable and don't crease
