Goodthreads Inseam Flat Front Stretch Shorts Reviews Summary

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

• "This short has a great fit with a 5” inch inseam! The color is as portrayed in the picture. There is good flexibility in the short in the legs and the waist and it’s comfortable for all day wear if needed."
• "Might be the most comfortable shorts I’ve ever owned."
• "These shorts are the perfect fit."
• "I have bought 5 different colored pairs after trying thr first. I am a 5 foot 6 inch, 145 lbs woman, ordered size 30 and they fit perfectly."
• "I'm 5'7 and they hit far enough above my knee to look great."
• "The 36 inch size fits me nicely with (or without) a belt."
• "They fit very well on the waist and give my legs the breeze and sun on them."

Cons:

• "The leg openings are larger than normal and flare out a little -- too much for my taste."
• "The legs of these shorts flare out dramatically and are not form-fitting or 'slim' at all."
• "The big problem with these shorts is that I could probably fit a leg and a half in each leg opening, definitely too baggy to feel comfortable."
• "Bought two pairs of these slim fit shorts. They were too baggy! The leg openings are way too wide."
• "The leg openings were way too big. Almost looked like a girl’s mini skirt."
• "Leg openings are 25 inches (on a size 34). Not “slim fit” at all. Looks like you’re wearing a skirt."
• "I have pretty large thighs and there is still a significant amount of unwanted room."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "These are thin but durable."
• "After trying a couple I went back and ordered more colors. Substantial material, yet lightweight. I smooth them out and hang them to dry and have no wrinkles problem."
• "The material seems to be sturdy enough."
• "The material is soft but not super soft and the reason that's good is it means the inner thighs won't just cave away like most very soft shorts."
• "The camo material washes nicely and doesn't shrink."
• "These shorts are well-made, comfortable and durable."
• "The material in these shorts is really nice. The colour isn't too fashionable. But the fit is great and the feel of them during cool or blazing summer days is excellent."

Cons:

• "The material is also flimsy. I'd send them back, but my husband has big legs."
• "The fabric is thin and flimsy and hardly inspires the confidence that they’ll last."
• "These shorts are very, very, very thin material and wrinkle a lot."
• "Low quality material. They look great on day one, but after a couple wash cycles they simply don’t hold up."
• "These are obviously made with super cheap materials that aren’t going to hold up."
• "The fabric isn’t great quality, so they lose their shape a need to be washed more frequently."
• "They are really poor quality, and basically always wrinkled."

Wrinkling and Care

Pros:

• "I smooth them out and hang them to dry and have no wrinkles problem."
• "They weren't quite as wrinkle-free as I had hoped, but they come out of the dryer in pretty good shape."
• "The only issue I’ve found is that while the patterned ones can be worn straight out of the dryer, the pairs that are solid color do need to be ironed, as they get very wrinkly, especially at the bottom."
• "These still have the wrinkle lines that never fully go away no matter how well you iron."
• "After wash, they're wrinkly - but I'm home anyways."
• "I had a hard time finding inch shorts and I think this is the best. I love it a lot. But only one thing that you must know is. After washing it, you must directly dry out or hanging it. If you do not, you will see tons of wrinkles."
• "My son really likes these shorts when you come out the dryer than what you need to hang on right away or folder because they will wrinkle and stay wrinkled."
