Great shorts!

These shorts are super cute! I got them in 'clay' and they'll look great with white tops. I've never had Trekkie shorts before and was reluctant to purchase because of some reviews saying they were not as good as previous years…I'm not sure what the difference is, but I think these are great! They a...re a durable and comfortable material and are very flattering on. I love how there are no pockets on the back…It doesn't make the butt look bulky! I am 5'3" 135 lbs and got a medium. I tried the small and they fit as well, but were a bit snug on my waist. I do wish the leg opening was a slight bit more narrow. However, the cut is nice and they do not flare out at the bottom like some shorts, which I do not like. I could have gone with small or medium, but opted for the medium for slightly more comfortable fit. Overall, I am very happy with these shorts!

Used to be mu favorite shorts

These were always my go to shorts for hiking. They were light, comfortable and flattering. I had at least five different colors! These new changes completely turn these into a different pair of shorts. I hate the new mid-rise as the former high rise was so flattering and now the mid rise hits me in ...a weird spot. I also dislike the drawstring as before the silhouette was smooth and now I have a bulky knot at the front right where I don't want it. Guess I will look second-hand for the old version as I will not purchase this new version. Very disappointed.

Comments about Trekkie North Mid Rise Short

I bought usual size (m) and they are very comfy but pretty baggy…maybe that's the look Not sure if I should have sized down but I like them for comfort. Fabric feels very durable.

The old waistband was so perfect with its smooth flat no chafe band (and the pockets looked a lot classier). The old model was literally perfect. Don't try to fix what isn't broken! Please bring back the old version (and same for the pants!)

Uncomfortable fabric, but nice shorts

The fabric is sort of crumply and not soft at all. The zipper pockets look kind of ugly as well. It does fit pretty well and are okay to wear. The waist is a bit loose, which was surprising to me as my waist is not thin haha. I'd wear it for hikes, but not for an outfit.

These shorts are okay. The waistband and numbered sizes made for way better fit, they also looked more elegant. The waist with string looks too casual. I'm between M snd L and the fit isn't that great in those limited sizes rather than numbers. I'll keep them because I wanted second pair in this style. They sold out so fast last year!!

The old version were my holy grail of shorts....felt like gym shorts, looked tailored enough to dress up. These look like board shorts made for the beach. Will have to look for shorts elsewhere
