I am actually a 35 year old woman. I needed a pair of khaki shorts for work and because I am 5'9, was running into them being to short for a modest woman. I love the Dickie line of pants, so I figured, why not try the young me 's short. They are perfect! Hit me just above the knee cap with the crisp, Dickies look we all love. And for $15? What a steal!
