JCP Flat Front Shorts

[Champaign]

Long time lurker, first time poster...

I need shorts. The flat front shorts from JCP seem to be the right length, and not too baggy. Here is the link to the ones I'm talking about:

For $15, I don't think I can find anything better. They may not last more than one summer, but I'm fine with that.

Has anybody tried these on? Thoughts on fit/quality? How is the length?

Thanks!

I liked them fit me right above the knee but I did have to size up in the waist to fit over my thighs. (I'm normally a 32 and I had to get 34 shorts)
I compare them to the Target Merona shorts that I also enjoy.

I don't have the chino ones, but I do have the oxford ones, and I love them. They fit a bit slimmer than Target Meronas. Hard to beat those JCPs for the price.

I have both the chino and oxford ones, and I like them both a lot. The length seems perfect (above the knee but not awkwardly short, at least in my opinion). I would agree that they are somewhat slim, but not crazy tight. I would agree with willsee though, if you have big legs, it wouldn't hurt to size up.

Ditto, 34 up to a 36. Great otherwise.

i also have the jcp oxford shorts. they are awesome. i'm a 30 waist and these are nice and slim and just the right length (9" i believe). the cut/fit is perfect. makes you wonder why you'd ever pay more for a pair of shorts.
