Essential Drawstring Short - Flintstone
The verdict
Fit
Drawstring shorts offer an elastic-waist fit, casual and forgiving. Expect a relaxed, loose cut suitable for lounging.
Quality
At this price, expect basic construction and mid-weight fabric typical of budget casual shorts. Durable for regular wear but not premium.
Price check
At 49 dollars, this is a steal for a drawstring short. You're buying simplicity and utility, not finesse.
Best for
Shoppers on a tight budget who need a comfortable lounge or casual-beach short without overthinking it.
Care
Simple cotton shorts do best with a normal wash and air dry to prevent shrinkage and preserve the drawstring.

Fit check: Faherty
True to sizeFaherty fits true to size with a deliberately relaxed cut — take your usual size, and only size down on the roomiest dresses and boxy tees if you're between sizes.
Owners and hands-on reviewers consistently report Faherty running true to size, with the slight ease built into the cut rather than a sign to size down. The relaxed silhouette shows up across lines — tees are described as boxy-but-not-oversized, pants run about a half-inch generous in the waist (not enough to change size), and some dresses and boxier tops read roomy enough that between-sizes buyers go down. A minority of owners find pieces large and boxy at their usual size — one Reddit user had a medium tailored — and a few customer reviews flag garment-to-garment inconsistency, but that's the exception in the feedback, not the pattern.
Sizing advice: Order your usual size across the line; if you're between sizes, size down only on roomy dresses and boxy tees — everywhere else stay true, since the relaxed drape is intentional.
