I haven't worn shorts in many years. I exist in Brooklyn and Retreat Linen pants all summer to avoid chub rub, sweaty sticky thighs, sunscreen, the constant readjusting, and just generally don't like the way shorts look/feel. But lately I've gotten hot, too hot, so I gave these a try and I love th...em! I don't love the way they look, but that's just me. The shorts feel great--the fit is loose without being baggy. I can move however I like without flashing anyone or having to constantly tug them down. They are light and comfortable. I wear a 10P in the Retreat Linen Pant and medium in these shorts is perfect. (I am short, chunky, and I have a big muscular booty and thighs). I got olive (which has a beautiful subtle stripe texture) and I'd happily purchase more in other colors (navy please?).
I loved the Retreat Linen Collection when I saw it. And I love the idea of an ensemble with a top, shorts, and pants! When I saw it in the store, the collection was made of a very nice fabric but no petite sizes were available. However, the short and pants were both back ordered beyond the 30-day re...turn window for the delivered shirt. When I requested an extension to return the shirt until I had received the companion pieces, I was flatly denied. I wound up returning the shirt. I will probably return the shorts and pants too, rather than repurchasing the shirt. I hope Athleta Customer Service will reconsider its strict policies when its own supply issues created the difficulties for its loyal customers.

I am a size 12 with thicker/muscular thighs and these shorts are a game changer. They don't ride up, they're comfortable and they're the perfect length. Thank you for making these! I have them in two colors and would buy more if they were in stock.

Love the beautiful color of these shorts, and the matching cropped shirt, which I also purchased. The linen elevates the look and makes them super comfortable. Both the shorts and the shirt are incredibly oversized, which is overwhelming for a petite person like me (5' 1"), so I went down a size.

I purchased these linen shorts for my yoga retreat in the Côte de Azur. They are perfect for this trip. They are stylish and can dress them up for dinner or dress casually shopping in the south of France. Merci beaucoup!

Love these linen shorts. Very light and comfortable. Might run a bit large. I bought the pink and was worried that it would be too much, but I actually love it.

Nice length in the shirt but as expected with linen-quite wrinkly. Olive color is a bit drab too.
