  • Nice shorts. Good fit, great price. Nice shorts. Good fit, great price.
Size: 16 Color: Flax Single
Nice shorts. They have multiple pockets. Material is lightweight, they fit true to size and wash well. My son is tall and thin, so the adjustable waist makes these even better. The length is perfect and they are comfortable.

  • perfect for uniform schools policies
Size: 10 Color: Flax/Sandwash/Tidal/Washed Black 4-pack
These boys’ cargo shorts are absolutely perfect! The material is soft yet durable, making them ideal for everything from school days to outdoor adventures. The fit is spot‑on — comfortable in the waist, roomy enough for active play, and not too long or too short. The elastic waistband and adjustable features make getting dressed easy, and they stay put all day without sagging or bunching. The pockets are a huge win. They’re actually functional, not just decorative, and my kid loves having space for snacks, small toys, and all the “treasures” he finds outside. After multiple washes, the color and shape still look great with no fading or fraying. Overall, these cargo shorts are a fantastic blend of comfort, durability, and style. My son reaches for them constantly, and I’ll definitely be buying more. A true 5‑star staple for any kid’s wardrobe! ... show more

  • Just right for my 11 year old - bought size 14
Size: 14 Color: Flax Single
I thought they were going to be too long but nope! They are perfect for my kiddo who is constantly growing these days. They adjust at the waist. He’s 4’10” and likes the feeling of his paints just under his belly button which causes issues with the length of products. These fit right to his knee. They are great quality. ... show more

Size: 4 Color: Washed Black Single
Wow, these pants are so nice, comfy they are lot of pockets around, well made. Fit well for my future kindergarter . ☆ He almost 5 yrs old in a few days,He is 33 lbs. Oh yes He is tiny one lol . I bought 3 of them as size 4 . Fit well, the price is great too. BTW i noticed that the dark green color in the middle ( plz see in the pics) is longer than other but it's fine. I was looking for pants that my kid will use for this upcoming school year, So this is it. I'll buy more . ... show more

  • Nice shorts
Size: 10 Slim Color: Flax Single
These are well made shorts. If you buy them a little large, they have some adjustable bands on the inside that make them tighter for slim kids. The fabric is somewhat thick, but breathable. They can be a little wrinkly, but they’re kids. The light colors will stain if they get permanent marker or paint on them. ... show more

  • Great fit & good deal
Size: 12 Color: Tidal Single
Great fit! My son has autism and he is a bit picky and specific about certain things as far as texture and doesn't do well with zippers or buttons , so often there is a struggle to find a good pair of pants / shorts but thankfully, i was able to feel relieved once he approved! The price was a big win as well! He is about 4.5 feet and between 82-88 lbs and the fit was great. The waist band was a comfortable stretch match and it had adjustable waist band seams on the inside that don't seem to bother him at all. ... show more
