    I had high hopes for these shorts given the reviews. For reference, I hold most my weight in my legs and have a muscular build. I am also petite - 5'3. I usually buy a size large short, knowing the waist will be a bit big but hoping to have enough leg room.

    The waist of these shorts were fine, but the legs were form fitting when I was hoping for a looser fit. They also did not pass the thigh gobble test. If you have thinner legs, these shorts will be great. They did seem nice quality.

    These shorts are so awesome! I love OV because they have more stretch than other outdoor brands but still have the look and length. these shorts will be perfect for climbing, hiking, or whatever! They are thick like the pants so they will keep you warm whether you like that or not! They fit just like the rektrek pants!

    These shorts are really well made and nice quality, and they fit well but were just not flattering on me. They're also a heavier weight and were a little warm for Georgia summers. I actually thought about keeping them, but there's so many other OV stuff I really love, so they went back.

    I love the fit of these shorts so much! I own 2 pairs of the RecTrek pants so wanted to give these a try. I got the orange color and they are a lot more neon of an orange than I expected, but other than that they are great.

    I thought the shorts were super cute and perfect for the summer weather but they ended up looking like a parachute on me! I’d recommend sizing up if you’re normally an XS-S!
