The waist wax at least 2” smaller than marked!!! Measured against all my other shorts, waist was 2” smaller! Do I order a bigger size or are these mislabeled? Or just give up.

Nice shorts, but much too tight
Much too tight in the legs, butt, and crotch for those with bigger legs. These fit like the newer metro style of tight pants/shorts. Really not versicle for moving around.

Good shorts.
Well-made shorts with good pockets. I like the “extra “ right side pocket. I have bought several pairs over the years. Well worth the price!

Not True to Size
Bought based on similar LL Bean Trail shorts from past, current type owned is little loose. Different cut and nowhere close to true size.

My review of LLB shorts
These are slim cut, not true to size. Length is shorter than advertised. Unusually disappointing from LLBean.
