Hem rolls up after wash
They are very similar to last years roll up shorts. The hem rolls up after washing so basically they’re the roll up shorts. Not happy with yet another pair I have to iron down after every wash. W&W should test wash them prior to selling them.

Great fit, not the greatest color
I really liked the fit and the look, but the mid blue artisanal coloring was off with too much of a whitewash and disparity in colors. The artisanal blue was too casual and wouldn't be great for certain outings/events. I returned the artisanal blue but may by the white because the relaxed fit was perfect.
