I was looking to replace a couple pairs of dolphin shorts I've had for years and I came across these. I love the style and I like how they're short and a little cheeky but not too too much. I got 2 pairs of the retro style shorts, one in dark gray in large and one in black in XL because large was all sold out in black but what is strange is the XL are tighter on me than the large, they feel like they have more compression, anyways they fit good and are very comfortable and stretchy, I like how they're high waisted and have a wide waistband that makes me feel more secure and tucks in my mom belly. The first thing I noticed upon taking them out the package was how buttery soft they were, I was expecting more of a slippery spandex feel but I'm happy because I prefer the matte feel. Also after trying them on it looked like I had ink on my hands and I realized it was coming from the black pair, it's not bad enough that I would return them but it's annoying and I was disappointed by that hopefully it doesn't rub off on anything light colored or when I wash them it doesn't bleed but it does say to hand wash, it only happens if you really stretch them or rub hard but we'll see how they hold up, I've only wore the gray pair but haven't washed them yet. They're great for lounging or to run a quick errand or a beach day, I actually wore them to the lake the other day and went swimming in them. The only real downside is they constantly ride and roll up my thighs when I walk, they stay put on my stomach but the leg part I was having to pull them down all day it drove me crazy so I wouldn't wear these to work out in but they're great for just hanging around the house or to sleep in. They also give me pretty bad camel toe lol. Overall I would get more because they're comfy n cute and reasonably priced. BTW I'm 5'3 about 155lbs 33 waist 42 hips and large fit perfect.
