Old styling but comfortable. Surprised at how much I like them considering that look a bit old fashion. Comfortable waist with drawstring. Leg length and opening good fit for me. Curvy with small waist and bigger legs. Dry quickly.

These shorts worked very well on my trip to Barbados. They looked good and were plenty roomy. I think they ran a little big, so take that into account. Not super big, just a little

These are kind of funny looking on me - i'm petite and they're sort of big and baggy (I rolled the waistband down which helped) but they were great to swim and hang out in because of the coverage and I love that they have pockets!

Kind of great, but not perfect. Not sure why they make the attached panties so tight. I have to cut them out and wear nylon panties underneath that are comfy. These are expensive to be doing that. They dry nicely while at the beach. Love that they are not form fitting on the outside layer. I hate bathing suits, so this works for me.

These are just like they look in the picture I will wear them and try a different kind of bottoms next time too

I like this bottom a lot- pockets, drawstring, and shorts that look like a skirt. My only complaint is that is takes a lot to dry out- lots of dripping long after getting out of the pool. But maybe that is unavoidable with that much fabric.

Love that these were pull on shorts and fit well. Fabric is a little too much in the leg area, but it's workable.

When these shorts are dry, they are great. They are comfortable. They fit well. I could easily go from beach to cafe. However, when I would come out of the ocean, I was uncomfortable with these shorts completely clinging to me and I would have to pull them away from my thighs. Uuuggghhh. They were great in the water snorkeling.

These are better as shorts than swim shorts. I like my shorts loose, with the waistline hanging off my hips, and I love the two pockets they have. But, when these get wet, they stretch out, especially the liner panties. In retrospect, for swimming, I should have ordered an XS. Had to use the pull string to tighten them around the waist when swimming. No big deal, but in the future, I'll probably stick to swim skirts and tankini tops in the pool, and wear these for running errands, or boating, when I'm around water, but don't necessarily expect to take a dunk. In the swim skirts, a 4R fits me beautifully without digging in around the waistband.

Everything is just fine, although it does hold water and I really had to use the towel to dry it off.Grandma

I am very pleased with these swim bottoms-they wear like a flattering pair of shorts and are great to swim in. The only improvement Beans could make is adding a tummy control panel. Then they would get 5 stars.

I have several of these. Shorts are great for weekends . I am able to go in and out of the water with my students and they dry very quickly, and are comfortable. I am unable to wear shorts at work and need capri length! Please restock longer pants!

They fit great, are well made and I find that the loose fabric floating around me is beyond distracting. (I use them for water aerobics.) Still deciding if I'll conyinue to use them.

The material is okay. The short leg is too wide and looks like a man's shorts. I returned it.

I find the pull on short too full and I do not like it as much as your other swim shorts.

Shorter than preferred and tend to ride up in the thighs; but, otherwise decent. Like the pockets

These fit fine as shorts, and the figure imperfections. But when wet, they just float around. There is a lot of fabric in the legs, almost skirt-like. Not at all comfortable for swimming or just jumping around the pool.

These look and feel good when dry. After climbing out of the pool, however, they are a soggy and unflattering mess. I wish I had known in advance. They are pricey and disappointing, in my opinion.

I like the idea of a swim short, but this had too much fabric, making a great design idea look too voluminous. I'm heavy in the hips, and if these were more trim, with less fabric while remaining flexible, I would've kept them.

This item is great as a pair of shorts. In the water, not so great. There's too much fabric for the water aerobics that I do. Getting out of the pool is especially a nuisance. I got them to go with a swim top, so I am disappointed in them. That said, they do fit well and are fine on a hot day around the house. Nice pockets for around the house, but for the water.

These shorts have a very blousy fit - fine for bike riding to the beach, not so good for swimming. They are fairly heavy and slow drying.

Crotch down to my knees. Not cut for the petite body. I need to return. This older woman really wanted something with a bit longer leg and hoped this would do the job, unfortunately not.
