I searched and researched for a pair of boy cut shorts to go with my tankini swimsuit. Main thing I was looking for was one that didn’t cut through the middle of my stomach . I didn’t want to go up a size and have them loose around the legs. These fit the bill in every aspect, they come up to bellybutton, they’re comfortable around thighs, and mine aren’t skinny. Material is nice quality too, I just received so I’ve no idea how they’ll do in water but that’s not a concern for me. Btw I’m 4’11” at present overweight at 118lbs I’m small on top but I wear medium on bottom which is what I bought, perfect fit.These did the job. They were the perfect color, didn't ride up, and my butt cheeks weren't hanging out of the back of them. Good buy.The swim shorts fit great and are very comfortable. Only reason I did not give it a 5 star was because the navy blue I ordered is more like royal blue. Wish they were a bit darkerThe swimsuit bottom was for me. It was all I thought it would be.I have been buying these bottoms for years now. I get at least one pair each summer even though they have lasted me 3 summers of swimming pretty much daily. And I stay in pool for many hours (6 at least weather permitting). They are lined, and can be worn as shorts ( I don't now at 56 yrs old, only around house) especially if you have flattering figure. I carry weight in belly, and these come up to belly button and stay up. Very comfortable. And b/c they are shorts, you don't have to constantly shave bikini line raw. Love these! And you will too.I was looking for a bathing suit bottom that was like short shorts. These bottoms were just what I was looking for and the fit is just right.Bought these bottoms because the bottoms of my existing swim suits do not fit correctly and roll up which is annoying. Tried them on and they look really nice and feel good, which I think is important when you are going to be in a beach for awhile. Perfect style to work with different swim tops. Hope they are as good once I swim in them.UPDATE: Now that I wore them on vacation wanted to give an update. Love them! They were comfortable all day, did not change, didn’t ride up and dried nicely. I would buy these again if I had to.Fitting and comfortable
