Reviews Summary
Customers say these shorts are comfortable and well-constructed with a substantial yet soft fabric. Many reviews mention the quality fit, though some note sizing runs slightly smaller than expected. Common feedback includes praise for the slight stretch in the material and versatility for different activities. While most find them perfect for everyday wear, some mention the high waistband placement and front belt loop positioning. Reviews indicate the shorts work well for casual to dressy occasions, with many appreciating their durability. A few users note they run snugger in the waist compared to similar sizes in other styles.

    Hi Craig! Thanks for the feedback about the MOAB STRETCH COTTON SHORTS 9". We're glad to hear you found them strong and durable, but we're definitely bummed that the waistband stretch and wrinkling are causing issues for you.

    Your specific notes about the limited waist stretch and the fabric wrinkling are exactly what our design team needs to hear. We want our shorts to perform better in both comfort and appearance, and it sounds like we missed the mark on those fronts with this style.

    Thanks for taking the time to share this honest feedback. It helps us understand where we need to improve our fit and fabric performance.
