Customer Reviews Volcom Frickin Modern Stretch Short

My go to for so many years has always been Quick Silver but after purchasing 3 pairs of these i believe the fit and the material used in these have me changed my mind, great fit, great look and the material is really comfortable. Great pair of shorts.

Pretty comfortable and they look nice in charcoal.

These shorts are very true to size and the stretch fabric makes them super comfortable. These are going to be my go-to short for the summer. I also purchased the pant - fits great - perfect for casual Fridays at the office.

These are nice shorts. Either I'm shrinking or they run large. I have a 31.5/32 inch waist and the 30 inch fit me. The style is fairly slim and trim which is good if you find most men's shorts as a bit flared and culotte-esque. The material is soft but maybe a tad heavier than I expected. It's been 90+ degrees recently so it may just be too hot for any material but these feel a bit warm. But, generally like the style. Will probably buy another color.

These run big. The 32, when actually measured, are closer to 34-35 inches in the waist. Alas. Build quality and style seem nice.

Good quality

I don’t know why these are called stretch chinos; there’s no stretch in the waist, and maybe a teeny tiny bit in the seat. I ordered them in navy, but it’s a very dark navy, almost black. I’m a skinny-legged man, so I was looking for shorts with a slimmer opening, but these were just not comfortable for me, and the material too thick for summer.

Great fit and comfy

The recycle material feels & looks cheap, the color blue is not like the pic shown, kinda darker... It’s also feels heavy & hot, not beathable...

Shallow pockets make them borderline unusable even though they look good. My keys and phone continue to fall out as these pockets weren't built for the modern size phone.

Great fitting poor made shorts. After a only a few washes these shorts have gone from brand new to worn faded and made me question why I bought them.

Threads came off, ripped along seem terrible
