Curvy vs Straight

Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2024

I originally got the curvy because I have a Mom middle but there’s no elasticity and they were far too snug at the waist and across the butt but thighs and length were good. I then tried the straight, perfection. If my waist was smaller than my hips I feel curvy is better cut for that but I’m not built like that. No gap in the back, material irons nicely, shorts look great with sandals or sporty tennies, I’ll be picking up another color soon.

Great fabric. High waisted. Leg holes a little wide for me.

High quality fabric. Quality look. Leg width feels a little outdated. I will wear though. Length is modest but not too long. Hood for summer dinner or non beach attire.

Great style and fit

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2024

Liked the price point and fit. They are classic tailored style. Good length (just below fingertips), comfortable, slight stretch. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the white shorts are slightly sheer. You can’t see undergarments, but the pockets and fly are noticeably more opaque than the other areas. I always size up in white pants and the 12 fit perfectly. I am 5’7” and normally wear a 10. I just ordered 2 more pair - blue and coral.

I ordered a 6 curvy and a straight 6. Both pairs fit me good, but the curvy leg holes are wider for my thick thighs. Besides that they fit just fine. The fabric is nice and seems like they’re made well……not cheap

Not cut for my body type

Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2024

These shorts are made well, I like the fabric, color and breathability. From my perspective, they run small. I would recommend to order one size up (I had to exchange my original order, it was easy and quick). But one thing I noticed, they are not cut for big-bottom women. If your body type is naturally curvey and you are proud of your behind, this is not for you. These shortsake my butt look flatter than it is and the overall cut feels a bit restricted.

The cutest Shorts!

Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2024

So flattering! loved the fit. I am 5'3 and 119 and I am 65 years old. I had to size up to a 4 and they fit so flattering! The length was perfect. I love them so much, I ordered several pairs in other colors. Had to return a Khaki color as the waist was really large. Hoping that was just a fluke and reordered another pair in the same size.

I am 5'3 150 lbs. with narrow hips. My waist and hip measurements are almost the same. I got these in a size 10 straight. They are AWESOME!! They are very well made and fit perfectly!! I will be ordering more in other colors!!

No indication of straight/curvy on tag or label, straight more comfortable

Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2024

I bought these shorts in both curvy and straight, as I have a donk and sometimes straight shorts do not fit me correctly, or do this weird flare out thing at the back.

The curvy fit was strangely smaller across my hips and butt, and got uncomfortably all up in my lady folds. How is this supposed to accommodate more meat in this area yet be smaller than the straight legged pair? Strange, and will be returning. 2 stars for the curvy pair.

Straight was true to size, and very comfortable. I recommend trying out the straight legged pair, even if you have a donk. 5 stars for the straight pair.

What needs to be updated IMMEDIATELY by Amazon:
Whether I was trying on the curvy vs straight pair I needed to determine by which pair was delivered on what day, then click on the link from that pair in my orders to see which option was highlighted. This is not great. @Amazon, this needs to be updated. Even if your tags won't be changed, the label on the bag that the shorts came in could have some indication of whether they are straight or curvy fit, or you could add some information in the description for this pair of shorts that indicates that KCZD is blue, curvy and YN6N is blue straight (if those are indeed the correct codes to be using for indication... who knows?!). 2 stars for labeling (b/c I'm sure the rest of the labels are up to code, and they are easy to read).
