These Bermuda shorts are great! Especially for tall women. They do run a bit large. I bough mine in the size 10 but they seem more like a size 12. They only feel a bit loose at the top waist but fit just fine at the bottom. They have some stretch to them and are high rise. The top part fall right below my belly button and the bottom fall just right above the knee. For reference, I am 5’9 and weight around 185 pounds.The bandolino plus size denim Bermuda shorts are the perfect length, fit as expected (ordered my normal size), have some elasticity, yet don’t get bigger or baggier as the day progresses. I got the size 24, which is the same size I wear in other pants or jeans. They feel good and provide adequate amounts of coverage, and they go with most t-shirts and summer tops. Great buy. Would buy again.The package arrived quickly and the shorts fit well without any "fixups". It is a GOOD porchase!So many people said these run large that I ordered down a size. The result - I can't even close them. Perhaps the sizing is inconsistent, which makes it rather impossible to order online.Bought for the color. Stretchy , I wish I would of sized down. I went on the safe side... most pants i buy are either 14 or 16. i could of gone with 14.The shorts are well made and I like the dark color and how they stretch.These are nice, comfortable shorts. I like the pockets, length & they have some stretch to them. They do run a bit big. I am 5ft 3 125 lbs and the size 6 is a bit large. I will put them in the dryer for the full cycleseveral times and hopefully they will shrink a little bit.First of all, these shorts are great quality! Super cute, stretchy, real pockets...love them! However, they run big! Originally I bought a size 10 because I’m between an 8-10 but the 10s were huge!! I reordered a size 8 and they were still big on me. I ended up giving the 10s to a friend who usually wears 12-14 and they fit her perfectly.Great
