Just right!

I really liked these shorts. The material was lightweight and were very easy to move around in. I was very happy with the length of the shorts as well. It’s hard finding shorts that are not too short. They seem like they will hold up well in the wash. Looking forward to the summer so I can wear them.

Gorgeous

What a beautifully crafted short pant!!! The quality is absolutely superb. Kept me cool and dry. Highly recommended. The fit is true to size. I’m wearing a medium but I’m usually a small. The color was gorgeous also. I would buy more in different colors.

Shorts

These are great shorts for being active. First, I love the bright color. The material is NOT soft but seems moisture-wicking and will keep you dry even with sweat/water. The fit true to size and are not form fitting. I love that they are UV resistant and help protect the skin. Overall I would recommend them. They appear to hold up well through use.

Cute and comfortable

Shorts are cute and perfect length. Not overly big and no stretch in the tights so size right. I got a medium and it is right about a size 27-28. Pockets are good sized and overall. Water resistant shorts are always good to have on hand over summer. Would recommend

Lightweight, comfortable shorts

These shorts are great! The material is lightweight and very comfortable. The only thing that I wasn’t a fan of is that there are no back pockets. I do really like that the leg holes are larger than others, which is nice for my larger thighs. Overall I would definitely recommend!

Outdoor Voices Ladies Shorts

The Outdoor Voices Ladies Shorts are very comfortable and stretchy! I have them in the petunia color and they are a nice clear, bright color. The fabric is medium weight, somewhere between athletic wear and denim. The waistband is very stretch and about 2” wide so they stay in place. Drawstring lets you adjust the size to your comfort. The pockets are zippered to keep your keys and essential safe and they are deep enough to fit an my iPhone. I’ve washed them a few times and they keep their shape nicely, but I found if I take them out if the dryer early and hang dry they don’t wrinkle. Personally I would prefer the 5” inseam to these at 3 1/2” just because the leg opening is generous and there is no liner. Nice shorts!

Look at in person before buying

I really like the length of these shorts—it’s just right. However, the fabric isn’t my favorite. It’s quite thick and a bit stiff, which makes it hard to describe but not very comfortable for me personally. Because of the heavier material, I don’t find them very flattering. Since it’s winter, I haven’t had the chance to wear them in warmer weather or see how they perform or dry when wet. Overall, they may work for some, but I wouldn’t purchase more shorts in this fabric.

Not for me

These active wear shorts have a stiffer feel than I'm used to and that kind of hard fabric has a crinkle sound that you'll notice occasionally while walking. They have a very 'rugged' feel, but that's not what I look for when I'm looking for jogging/hiking shorts. I have not washed these yet, so that could potentially soften them a bit. I ordered a medium, and the waist area fits fine, but the leg holes have a ton of extra room so that when I sit with my knees slightly bent, you can see right up my shorts. If I were to try these again, I'd buy a small just to see the leg size difference. I'm 5'4", about 130lbs, waist size 26", 40" hip, and midway thigh measures 20". They aren't terrible, the zip pockets are nice and I do feel like they will hold up over time, but they will be my back up pair that I'll use if my other shorts are in the wash.

Good quality & perfect lenght

These shorts are very lightweight, perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking, walking etcera. The shorts lenght are mid thigh, I am 5'3 and fit right at mid thigh. They do not ride up when walking.

I wouldn't buy again

These are not a favorite at all. They are very scratchy even after a few washes. The scratch your legs and waist. They make you sweat and just strangely uncomfortable. The only plus side is these do have pockets so that helps a bit.
