Very happy with these swim shorts. The shorts are soft and flexible and move with my body. The shorts ride up a little bit when you sit, but I think that's just how it goes when you have small shorts on and it isn't a design flaw. If you are looking for shorts that do not rise up on your thighs at all. you'd need a compression design.

The pattern of the suit was as pictured.

BTW am short, 5'1" and have a round belly and athletic legs, a large fit great.

These are well made and they fixed the waistband problem from their older swim shorts models. This has a wide waist band that feels and looks so much better. I wear a size 4/6 and bought a medium and needed to return. Small would fit better. Also wished there was a different print of them!

I like the idea of shorts a lot, but these aren’t really anatomically shaped. The front and the back are the same, so you don’t really get very much more coverage doing the shorts as opposed to regular bottoms. And with the shorts the front ends up rolling up when you sit down.

Love this suit. It’s perfect for knowing you’re actually covered up. I got the one strap top with shorts for bottoms. Also the houndstooth is great for mixing and matching with other black pieces. Great addition to my bathing suit wardrobe! The price point is also hard to beat.

Thanks!
