Hanes Womens Stretch Charcoal Heather Reviews Summary

Comfort and Fit

Pros:

• "I am very picky about shorts, but these were love at first try. They are incredibly comfortable and flattering."
• "These are the most comfortable shorts I have ever wore."
• "The cotton is very soft and the fit is flattering from all angles."
• "These shorts are comfortable and breath very well. They hold up fairly well even though I wash and dry on hot."
• "The elastic waistband does not cause any pain or digging, and same goes for the leg holes."
• "They are very comfortable, true to size and a good length."
• "I’m really happy with the purchase. The material is comfy and breathable too!"

Cons:

• "I bought a second pair of these shorts and they fit nothing like the first."
• "I've been buying these shorts for 3 years. I love how they fit. This pair however was totally different. The waist band is higher and at least 1 size smaller than the rest of the pair of shorts making them too tight and uncomfortable."
• "I am usually between a size S and M so I ordered medium and they fit pretty snug for a M."
• "They’re not a very deep black, almost came looking the tiniest bit faded."
• "I can usually wear a small in these types of shorts but ordered a medium because I like some room. Even that is way too small however - like they're youth sized or something?"
• "The waistband is a regular thin band, NOT the comfy wider waistband of my original pair."
• "These don't fit like bike shorts. Like most other brands, they're too tight in the waist."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "Nice fabric. Fit as advertised."
• "The material is plenty thick - it’s completely opaque."
• "Great soft, stretchy spandex shorts and not see thru like many others are when u bend over etc!!"
• "I really liked these shorts for the material. The fit was good and stretchy."
• "Fits nice and snug not thick but not thin either the material is thick enough to NOT be see through which is great for the price."

Cons:

• "The bike shorts I received were hella short, definitely not the length presented here."
• "They’ve changed the design of these. They used to have a 4 inch waistband, but now it’s just the regular thin elastic waistband that squeezes you."
• "The shorts are on the thin side, fabric is thinner than expected. They are great for the summer."
• "The material of these shorts is rather coarse and rough... it feels like those cheap Gildan t-shirts they always use for giveaways at events."
• "Sadly, the material is not thick enough. You can see your undies through the shorts."
• "The material is stiff and scratchy. And the sizing seems way off (runs very small)."
• "Unfortunately, these shorts are see through."

Design and Style

Pros:

• "I love these shorts because they make my butt look nice and they’re long enough that I can wear cotton shorts without looking crazy."
• "These unexpectedly turned into a very all purpose short option for the summer."
• "These shorts aren’t sheer, which is nice."
• "They’re thick and not see-through."
• "It’s so hard to find biker shorts that are good quality, and fit nicely. So glad I found these. Not see through, nice and form fitting."
• "I love to wear a nightgowns. I have a new puppy that I have to bring outside during the night. I bought these to wear with my pajamas so if I have to bend over and pick up my puppy I am covered."
• "This product is perfect for wearing under a martial arts uniform so your underwear does not creep up."

Cons:

• "Ordered these in two different sizes (L and XL) and they were two totally different designs."
• "I bought the black, and it's not a true-black. It's off-black which makes it look like it's been washed a few times and faded a bit."
• "The only thing is the waistband is not as it appears in pictures it’s just a thin regular elastic waistband."
• "The only thing I would change, is to make this shorts a darker shade of black and I wish these came in white 😩"
• "These shorts are so bad, the fabric is scratchy, the fit is way off, the proportions are weird, and they are SO unflattering."
• "I ordered my size, thinking they would fit proportionately as pictured. The waist band is true to size, but the leg opening is huge and unflattering."
• "I ordered and returned these shorts 4 times. The very first time I ordered these shorts, they sent me the correct shorts. I love them and ordered them again and received wide waste band shorts."
