Everyday Shorts

I found the lack of a fly zipper to be quite obnoxious, especially with such an oversized waistband

Need a longer Leg short

Solid shorts

I've been wearing these shorts the last few days and overall I like them a lot. They fit well and I like the material and color. The material feels like it might be water repellent but it's not. I love the extra side zipper pocket -- I can easily store my ridge wallet in there next to my phone and they both sit flat. I wish the shorts had belt loops in addition to / instead of the drawstring. The back pockets aren't super useful since they don't have velcro or some other way of closing -- it seems like anything in them would fall out easily. Time will tell how well they hold up. Would buy another pair if they were sold in a khaki / sand color.

There is a lot to be desired

I'm disappointed with the shorts. The material doesn't feel like quality nor does it feel like they will last very long before being distorted in feel, color, and eventually integrity. The fit is not great, the crotch is too high up, which would force the wearer to artificially lower then on the waste to compensate, and they balloon too much around the waist, just under the waste band. The waste band is surprisingly too think/tall, creating unnecessary extra friction/constriction on the skin. The shorts are a start, but there is a lot of room for improvement.
