I have these shorts in the lemony green color and black! They are really comfortable, look good and wash up nicely. I hang to dry and smooth out with my hand to save color.

Absolutely love these. Perfect for the beach or as a comfy casual summer short. Bought them for my SIL as a birthday gift and she also loved them. Sized down to an XS. They run a little big.
