Seafoam Shorts

First, let's be clear: these are for swimming, at best. You might see comments about gym shorts, but these are for swimming. Be cautious if you use them for swimming, though, as you will have *no* secrets if these get wet. The do not appear to offer much privacy.

Second, the material feels fragile, like a seam will rip with little stress. The stitching doesn't look very durable. It reminds me of the quality you might find in a Spirit Halloween costume.

Third, they're not flattering in any way. The waist fits fine, but the legs are WAY too wide.

Fourth, be sure you want Cove products, because when you buy these and inevitably end up disappointed, you can only exchange them or take store credit. No refund is offered.

Here’s a polished version with a more natural flow:

These shorts are very comfortable and lightweight, and the pattern looks fantastic. The material quality is great for $25: the fabric feels light, the seams seem sturdy, and the zippers are surprisingly smooth. They also included a massive pack of stickers, which was a nice bonus.

My critiques are fairly minor. First, the rubber logo patch on the left leg is a little annoying. It’s fairly thick, and because the shorts are so lightweight, the patch is more noticeable than I expected. I would have preferred a fabric patch or no patch at all.

Second, for a 5-inch short, the rise is noticeably higher than I expected. The distance from the crotch seam to the waistband is about 1.5 inches longer than I’d like. If I roll the waistband a bit, the fit is perfect, but then the waistband becomes uncomfortable. That said, I may just be oddly proportioned.

Overall, these are great shorts for the price. I would buy them again.

Shorts are awesome. On a quest to get all the shorts.
