The verdict
Fit
Knit-woven blend with designer input; model on 5'9.5" suggests regular proportions; expect a comfortable, proportioned fit.
Quality
At $106 for a designer short, either this is overstock or the collaboration is modest; construction should still reflect MOTHER's mid-tier standards.
Is the price fair?
Exceptional value if this is a legitimate Natalie Martin collaboration at $106 — typically designer work costs more; verify authenticity of the collab.
Best for
Value-conscious shoppers seeking designer-collaborative shorts without the usual designer price tag.
Care
Knit construction requires gentle washing; hand-wash recommended to extend garment life.
What owners report about MOTHER shorts
Try-on reviewers describe MOTHER's denim shorts as lightweight and stretchy — "insanely comfy" — with a comfortable feel straight out of the box. One reviewer who wore a pair hard through a full summer says they held up and rates the shorts even better than the brand's jeans. Complaints are style-specific: inseams run short for taller wearers, wash colours can look different (less blue) in person than in online photos, and one high-waisted cut with added side paneling struck a reviewer as unflattering.
- Strengths
- Soft stretch denim that reviewers find immediately comfortable and durable through a summer of heavy wear.
- Watch out for
- Short inseams and cut-dependent fit — reviewers flag lengths "right on the edge of being too short" and washes that arrive less blue than pictured.
- Sizing
- Fit varies by cut — one try-on reviewer took her usual size while another went one size up — so check per-style measurements, especially inseam length.
