The Lands End Women’s swim shorts in black fit true to size, they have an elastic waist band and hit mid thigh. They have swim suit bottom built into the shorts and can be worn as a cover up or as swim bottoms.

The Lands End swim short is nice for those that don't like bikini bottoms. I think these could be nice for wearing in the summer as well if you wanted. The fit is comfortable and I also like that they have 2 pockets.

Ordered new swim bottoms from kands end and was greatly surprised of the quality and thickness of the material. nice fim hold but very comfy. Love the color as well as it goes with lots of tops I already have. Wore during our winter holiday at the hotel up north. washed well and sidnt keep any chlorine smell from the pool. would recommend!!

I got a size M and I could have gotten a smaller size, they seem to run larger. The material is comfortable and the color is exactly as the photo. I have not got to wear them yet in the water due to Michigan Winter, but I’m sure these will be just fine.

I found these to be a nice pair of shorts. I wear a 18-20 usually grab a 2xl in shorts but I got these in XL and they fit great. Not to tight and the waist band is nice. They have built in bottoms so good short to hike or swim in.

The shorts are exactly as picutred, which is really nice! I love the pocket detail and the black and white print design is very esthetically pleasing. I'm looking forward to pairing it with my black one piece swimsuit this summer! My only gripe is that an XS would have been more true to size for me.

I guess I didn’t realize how long these were. I do like that they have pockets in them because I feel like a lot of female pants don’t have pockets. The feeling is nice it isn’t like they will make me hot and sweaty.

This short is nice. I love the design. But the built in underwear was too tight for me. i usually wear a medium and this is a medium but its tight. I'd say maybe a size up would have been better. The outer short was ok.

Tried these on and I’m sending them back. Didn’t like the material and they are not flattering at all. Very puffy in the middle.

These are way too big to be a woman's large. At the hips, they are 1 inch short of being 2 feet wide! I normally size up when it comes to swimwear. If this is a large, I think even the medium would have also been big. Shorts have 2 exterior pockets that do not close and have a mesh interior lining. There is also a small pocket that opens at the top of the waist band. I do not know the intended purchase for that small pocket since it also does not have a closure on it. There isn't a drawstring of any sort to adjust waist the line. It is just a thick piece of encased elastic for these swim bottoms. Stitching and seams are well done.
