I'm 5.8 and 160. This shorts blew my mind for the value you get. Fits great has an stretchable band at waist to adjust for a slight belly if one has one. Length was great on par with my Hurley shorts. I wear a lot of Hurley shorts and had no problem trying one of these one for size. Comfortable, smart, look great and I'm going to get some more, a little thicker than Hurley but still cool.
