Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 8" Dock Shorts

I have several older pair, size large,these seem larger in the waist. But other than that excellent product.

Look nice, fit ok. I was looking for more of an exercise short rather than a beach short

Nice shorts but not for someone with a belly. They slip down for my husband but he says the fabric is comfortable.

My husband ordered these shorts for when he is mowing the grass. They are a perfect length for him and they wash up beautifully.

These shorts are just as advertised. I like the color.

Runs a bit large on me, but it still gets to look pretty nice.

I got these shorts for my husband to wear while driving. They are loose enough to be comfortable and they look much nicer than gym shorts. He wears them with tee shirts and with polo shirts.

Soft, comfortable casual shorts. Very good materials and workmanship, except that the inseam is 7", not 8" as advertised. They would be perfect shorts with a 9" or 10" inseam.

Good for lazy days. The fabric is lighter weight than I had hoped but the quality is otherwise good and the color is perfect for my taste.

I bought these to replace a similar pair of shorts (not LL Bean) which I have worn for years. These are comfortable, fit well and the quality appears to be good. As with some other reviewers, a fly would be nice. I wear these for different activities, not just around the house. If one is okay without a fly, I would recommend these.

Bought these for my husband and he is happy with the fit. He has the medium and says they are comfortable. He wears them around the house and sleeping. For reference he is 5'8" and around 180 lbs.

Shorts fit perfect used for a photoshoot nice color

A fairly heavy cotton short, easy on easy off, great for a lazy day at home.

Nice twill material, big leg holes, stretch and draw string waist. Fits a little big everywhere and a lot big in the waist. My experience, YMMV.

Versatile colors. I bought the blue ones for my husband and he has worn them multiple times a week since purchasing them. He love the sturdy cotton fabric and they seem like they will last a long time! The only thing is that I wish they came in a 6" option.

Nice shorts. Run a little large. Well made and nice heavy duty material.

I got this color on sale. Would not have paid full price. Luckily my husband likes yellow. It's not bright yellow at least. Material a bit stiff.

I like them very much but I do miss a rear left pocket.

These shorts have a great material and color selection. I would like to see the elastic band be more of the primary fit, (tighter), so someone who's hands are not as flexible can pull them up easily, and they won't fall down easily.

These are great shorts. My only issue is that I wish they had waist sizes in even inches. I usually run 36 waist which makes the medium (32-34) way too small and large (36-38) too baggy. Four inches between sizes means that half your customers don't get a good fit. I'm in that half and will not buy these again for that reason.

Very comfortable, nice colors, good length for me. Draw string closure, and no fly! So these are definitely for more casual outings where a fly is not necessary.

Good quality and nice fit. Can wear everyday. Highly recommend

The shorts are great. For an extra large, they are still a little tight. Otherwise it would be 5 stars.

Nice shorts. Well-made. For the price, I expected them to have a fly, and I didn't notice that they did not have one when I ordered them.

Comfortable fit, wish they had a zipper and a few more choices of popular colors.
