Great shorts!
These are the best shorts. My 7 year old loves them. Comfy and hold up great. True to size, but I always order a size up as they work well on the baggy side.

The only shorts we wear
these are the perfect length for our boys and I find every other brand is too long and Hanks past their knees, which isn’t as comfortable.

Primary quality, sizing confusion concern
As always, high quality. Sizing confusing on some items as we transition from 4 to 5. Concerned the 5s I ordered might not provide the extra room as he grows since they are marked 4-5. Should be clear in item description. I expected 4s to be for size 4, and 5s to be larger for later use. Not much difference when I held them up against one another.

Shocked at quality
Shocked at quality! Everything was to size and very comfortable, and surprisingly thick quality material. Would purchase again. I am very content with the quality and the price.
