These shorts were great! They're slightly stretchy and come to right about under my belly button (I don't have much of a stomach for reference.) The sizing could be said as small I'm usually a 3/4 in jeans (6 if you're comparing it to old navy) and ordered a medium and it fit perfectly. Like I said the waistband has some stretch but not much- enough to eat a lot and hold it in tho lmao. The short length itself came to the length you'd expect from regular shorts like these. Overall great product!
