Reviews

Great.

"I’m a bigger guy and I wish y’all had a few more options in the bigger sizes. But overall no complaints."

— Alex O. (5/5)

great quality but fit depends color

"Great style and material good quality, BUT too much size difference between colors. Dark Navy is way longer below the knee than brown. Runs too long. Also tried a Black in store with another length. All size 29."

They Changed

"Been buying these same shorts for years "Frickin Modern" however this new pair they are longer and seem to be a different material that past years. I'm giving them a wash and seeing how they come out but from first try on I was hoping for another pair of exactly what I had previously bought. Just FYI"
