Product Reviews
Rated 1 out of 5 by from NOT SIZED CORRECTLY - WAY TOO SMALL I'm a tall and bigger gal. I usually wear a size 16 but I wanted room to move as I do a lot of kayaking and hiking. I bought these 1 size up from my normal size, which was the largest size they offer (18). They were so small I couldn't even get them over my rear. Most likely the size 18 is comparable to a normal size 12. Typically 16s fit me and 14s are snug. These wouldn't go over my thighs, so definitely smaller than a normal 14. I love the color, I love the fabric. I love the design and quality but unfortunately I cannot wear them. I'm really bummed because if they had fit, they would have been my go to shorts all summer long.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Take a hard pass on these shorts [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shorts online at the same time I bought a pair of Carhartt pants in the same size. Pants fit great. The shorts... the thighs and seat were cut so narrow that I couldn't even get them past my hips.. Wasn't crazy about the structure of the elastic waist or the feel of the cotton/poly material. If you have a slender build (like boy-figure slender), give these shorts a try. That said, if you can get the shorts on, chances are that the waist would be too large. Fortunately, returns are easy-peasy through my local store.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Didn’t fit me [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shorts for work and they would have been great except they were extremely tight on my thighs. The dimensions were a little off for me but the material seemed comfortable.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Way too small!! Runs super small. I took off my size 6 jeans to try these on in a six and they were 5 inches from being able to button. I will have to probably have a size 10 or 12 which is fine but don’t buy them without trying them on!! My husband and son wear Carhartt and they usually wear XL and XXL in other clothes and in Carhartt brand they wear a L and XL so I thought the women’s sizes they would be bigger too. Nope! Now for a run back to the store to exchange. Disappointed ??

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Definitely runs small. I'm sitting pretty comfortable in a size 12 in carhartt's traditional work pants and canvas shorts, so I bought these shorts thinking that the sizing would be similar, but they are not the same at all. I fit into carhartt size 12 jeans just fine, but not these size 12 shorts. Make it make sense. They were tight in the thighs and butt to the point that even if I could zip them up and button them I wouldn't be able to move comfortably. Returning immediately.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Tough working short [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have worn these a couple of times already . They are truly rugged wear shorts, with nice option of longer length if a nice cuff. If you like the longer short but also need the short to flex it is good. The material is comfortable but not as giving as other shorts because they are built for durability in mind. So if you need to add a heavy workhorse short to your wardrobe this is your go to short.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Comfort The material is not as nice as the old. I work in my pasture and wear the old shorts all the time so I order the new because my shorts were starting to fray. I am 62 years old so I like the elastic back but the new material is not as nice against my skin. The style is a little different also but it had the elastic form fitting back so I purchased them. The local store of course didn’t have them so it was strictly an on line purchase.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Even 18 is too small - a huge disappointment I am returning these shorts today because even size 18 is too small, and Carhartt does not carry these, or ANY shorts, in a larger size. I wear size 18 in American Eagle pants and jeans, and I was excited because Carhartt's Fit Finder indicated that a size 18 in these shorts would fit me. They do not. In 2020 it is VERY disappointing that a company like Carhartt, which prides itself on creating durable, functional clothing for men AND women, would not offer inclusive sizing in their full range of products. Although Carhartt claims that its women's clothing is "carefully designed to fit a woman's body," it's clear that they do not include women like me in their idea of what a woman's body can be. We are OUT HERE, working hard, looking for durable, functional clothing that not only fits but makes us feel good. I hope Carhartt will get with the program soon.

Size Guide

Carhartt Women's Pants, Shorts + Bottoms

SIZE X-Small Small Medium Large X-Large XX-Large
Numeric Size 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20
Natural Waist 27" 28" 29" 30" 31" 32 1/2" 34" 35 1/2" 38" 40 1/2"

HOW to MEASURE
NATURAL WAIST: Bend side to side and find the natural bend in your body; this is your natural waist. Please note this may not be the smallest point.

HIP / SEAT: Measure at the fullest part of your hips, approximately 8" below the natural waist.

INSEAM: Measure from your crotch down to the desired length on body. You may also measure pants that you currently own and like. Lay the garment flat and smooth out. To get the inseam length, measure on the front from the crotch point, along the seam, to the hem.

NOTES

For best results measure over your undergarments. Use a cloth measuring tape.

If your measurement falls between sizes, buy the larger size.

INSEAM LENGTHS
SHORT: Inseam Measurement is 29 - 30"

REGULAR: Inseam Measurement is 31 - 32"
