I've been eyeing these shorts since they came out, but was nervous to take the plunge without any reviews. I'm glad I tried them! I'm typically a 27-28 waist so I ordered an XS and S. The XS waist was way too small. The S is snug, but fits nicely. I could maybe even do a M, but the rest of the S short fits nicely so I decided to stick with the S. This is a great go-to short when you want to look nicer, but still have the comfort of the stretchy waist band. I will definitely be ordering other colors!
