These are a perfect fit for a slim shape. They feel good and look great. I love the length - I need that to cover up my skinny legs. I will be purchasing more.

Women's Board Shorts

I read through the reviews on these before I ordered them and upsized to a larger size because of the possibility of them running a little small. I could get them on and move in them but jeez they were tight especially at the bottom of the front pocket area, its like that area was tappered in. With that being said the quality of material was good and the length of the short was perfect they just needed to be a little more friendly to women who have hips.

Hi Michelle, Thank you for your recent review and feedback on the Women’s Board Shorts. We are sorry this item did not meet your expectations. We will forward your suggestions to our Design and Development Team so they can take that feedback into account when planning future product modifications. We certainly don't want you hanging on to something you don't absolutely love so if you would like to return or exchange the item, please go to our Returns Portal you can find it by scrolling to the bottom of our website and clicking on "Returns & Exchanges". Perhaps our Women's Classic Swim Jammerz would be a suitable alternative since they have a similar length and the relaxed fit is designed for unrestricted comfort: https://www.uvskinz.com/products/womens-classic-swim-jammerz.

I like the board shorts

The shorts are nice and dry quickly. They were true to size as described. I would love these 1 or 2 inches shorter!
