It's not easy to find shorts this short that are actually made for a man's body. I'm a bit husky, but have a nice set of legs (or so I've been told) and these shorts fit me perfectly, especially with the stretch denim. The waist isn't too tight but it hugs me in all the right ways. I wear a 33 in other brands but a 32 in these were amazing. The shorts are fitted just like a set of jeans would and the fly sits high, real "nut huggers" if you will. The pockets poke out past the frayed cut-off edges and give you that real daisy dukes look. The bleached color is great, they go well with just about everything and look best with a fitted shirt, a harness, or no shirt at all! I highly recommend these shorts in any colorway.
