Frayed Patch Pocket High Waist Twill Shorts (Nordstrom Exclusive)

These are stretchy and comfortable. Higher rise but sucks in the tummy with elastic. Ordered my same size as I do in their jeans. 111 lbs, petite build and ordered the 00. Snug but stretch a lot. If you want a roomier fit, size up! Like these more than Spanx brand!

While these laurel oak shorts fit well and I liked the color, I just did not care for the cuffed frayed hem. My eye kept being drawn to my thighs and I decided to return them. Fit was tts and the length was modest for this 50 yr old.

I own several pairs of these shorts. They are well made and fit true to size. As many have reviewed below they don’t like the fray at the cuff (nor do I), I just turn them up one and don’t see the fray. I also found them to be a little long so going from a 4.5 to 3.5 inch inseam was not a big deal for me. The material is heavy so they stay that way in the washer and the dryer. I find these to be my go to shorts so I just ordered another pair in tan and another color I don’t have. As a 58 year old woman with slender legs and thicker waste they work for me and still remain stylish (not old ladyish) with a tee shirt, polo shirts, tank top or light summer sweater or sweatshirt for cooler nights.

Great fit, will be keeping these. Wish they came in more versatile colors like black, tan, white, etc. Also wish there was an option without the fray if you prefer a more dressed up look. Either way, still a great short.

Comfortable, soft, light and stretchy fabric. Great fit!

Cute shorts, but the fabric was much thicker than I anticipated when I ordered them online. They are thicker like jean shorts and I was looking for a thinner material for the hot summers where I live. Great length etc, just didn’t work for my climate.
