Use as cover, not alone
By skybVerified Purchaser from Morganville, NJ on 9/15/2008
Waist:
Feels too small
Pros:
Attractive Design, Dries Quickly, Lightweight
Cons:
Lining Too Thin, Not fully lined
Best Uses:
At The Beach, Casual Swimming, Cover over swimsuit
Describe Yourself:
Comfort-oriented, Conservative, Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

It's a good coverup over your swim suit but don't advise wearing it alone. The underwear attached part is very thin and is not a complete underwear. There's a large hole in front of the underwear part where the velcro fly is (and why there is a fly opening for a woman's garment, I don't know....) Material is very lightweight and dries quickly.

Not as good

Bottom Line:

I would've liked these shorts if they had been true to size. They fit by far smaller than what the size is supposed to be. The opening is velcro and not very secure. This has been one of my least favorite items from Chadwicks and I really don't have that many.

Teach aquatic exercise 5 days a week to college students. Need aquatic wear that covers up, is practical and functional. These shorts are all of the above and inexpensive. When in pool chemicals daily, don't want to spend a fortune on athletic wear, these are affordable and the flat front is flattering!

Looking at the picture, I expected more of a gym short with an elastic waist. Instead, I got surfer shorts with a set-in waistband and no give or elastic. Worse yet, they were very small and did not fit.

The shorts pull in the back below the waist and that makes them bunch up. Maybe order one size up. The draw string is only in two holes in the front, not all the way around the waist so you can't adjust the waist. I suppose the string is for looks?

Lining Too Thin, Low Quality, Poor Fit

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

not true to size would be an understatement for these...you'll need to order at least a size larger than you actually are, maybe even 2 sizes larger...I returned them.

I easily fit in a size 12 but I could not even close these shorts. I wouldn't recommend them, now I have to pay return shipping!

Bathing Suit with a Bang!
By Meg the Beach-GoerVerified Purchaser from Merrimack, NH on 7/8/2008
Waist:
Feels true to size
Pros:
Attractive Design, Dries Quickly, Flattering, Good Fit, High Quality, Lightweight
Best Uses:
At The Beach, Casual Swimming
Describe Yourself:
Athletic, Comfort-oriented, Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The swimsuit as a whole (drawstring shorts and tankini top) look fantastic together, and I was able to swim out in the ocean and jump in the waves without feeling like the thing was going to fall off. That is a problem I have with most bathing suits. I am glad I was able to move in the water without pulling up straps and strings all the time. Very comfortable and figure-flattering. Shorts were great for wearing while walking along the strip as well.
