runs small
I am normally a 4 and it fits but the way the pockets are designed they stick out with the front pleats. I’m going to size up to see if it’s better.

Odd fit
Love the material and the way they fit in the waist but unless you have thighs that are nonexistent, the pleat pulls and balloons out and looks awful.

Pleating problem
I agree w/ other reviewers. Pleating is off on these shorts. It sticks out in an odd way. I like the material of these shorts as they’re slightly stretchy and comfortable. Size ran true for me; would not recommend sizing up. I’m typically Sz small, but got M based on reviews; ended up fitting big on me.
