Cute shorts[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a pair from last summer, and decided I wanted more! I love the different color selections, and they are just the right length for me. Not too short, and not too long! I would consider myself a pretty solid size 6, but for these shorts, it's a little different. I'm 5'3 and can fit into a 2 when I weigh about 115-120lbs. and a size 4 when I get in the 120-125 range (I carry fat in my hips and thighs). Hope that helps!

Absolutely HugeReally disappointed in how huge these were. I am 5' 2", natural waist is 24" hips somewhere around 32". I ordered a size 0 and I knew before I even put these on they wouldn't fit. The waistband has like a whole inch of room if not more - it doesn't even come close to resting on my body. My thighs are not huge at all, but are muscular and the fit of the shorts in that area were great, exactly what I was looking for: not skin tight, not gaping, and allow for movement, and not too short. Really can't believe how huge they are for a size 0 - and I bought two pairs so I know that it wasn't a factory error! Bummed.

Poor Fit for CurvesI don't usually leave reviews, but I wanted to warn the other curvy girls out there before purchasing because everything is so hard to return during social distancing. Unfortunately, these were a total miss for me. I have a true hourglass figure (small waist, big hips) and these are not a good fit for curves. They are cut extremely straight with very little stretch and gave me a weird camel toe that I couldn't get rid of no matter how I wore them. You can kind of see it in the pictures, but it was way worse for me! The loose leg is what drew me in, but they are not the right fit for my body type. Would be better on someone with narrow hips I think. Back in the mail they go...

Shorts are fabulous - fit is giganticThese shorts have a cute cut, great colors and they are soft and comfortable. But they are huge. I'm 5'5", 125 pounds, with a 26" waist. I'm a standard size 2, which is what I ordered per the size chart and the fit finder. Unfortunately, it looks like I could put a whole other body in the shorts. I tried belting them but they do that weird cinching, bunching thing. I do like them enough that I'm going risk sizing down. My advice: go with your hip size rather than your waist. These do fit low on the waist and I think they are so abnormally large on me because I have narrower hips.

In love![This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are a dream come true- cute, comfortable, and just enough stretch to easily accommodate a burrito at noon without any muffin top effect. My new go to for summer style.

Believe the hype - these are the best shorts EVERI'm always hesitant about buying things online from brands that I don't know, but let me tell you, these might be the best shorts I've ever put on my butt. They fit well in every area that other shorts do not; I have no muffin top, they don't give me a major wedgie while still being super cute and fitted on the backside, and the length is perfect. Love, love, love! I wish I could buy more pairs, but size 8 is sold out in the colors I want. Please restock, Carve!! For sizing reference, I'm 5'9" and 150 lbs with an athletic build and the size 8 is perfect.

Great shorts!I hesitated for quite awhile on buying these shorts because they are pretty pricey. I hate shopping for shorts as they never fit how I like. I am tall with long torso and have curvy hips so I either end up with muffin top or a pancake butt. These are so flattering and comfy. I did follow the advice to size down but that did not work for me. They were too tight in the waist. Went up a size and I am thrilled with the fit. I didn’t have to compromise on fit or flattery. Bought 2 more pairs. Red, cloud, black. Was a little disappointed the black was not more rich in color- it is a faded black. Red is beautiful! Cloud is creamy white. Will be purchasing more colors.
I am 5’10, 148lbs and typically wear a 28 in jeans and size 10 in Oahu fit me best.

Great shorts!I LOVE these shorts. I noticed them on a friend a couple of years ago. She just gave me a heads up about the current sale. I ordered two pair. They came really quickly and the fit is perfect. Not too low, not too high, not too tight. In the summer, it's very hot where I live, but the cord is really small and the material is thin enough that they will work well. They are a little too short for me to wear to work in the summer, so I just went back and ordered a couple of pair in the 6 inch. Can't wait til they arrive!
