Karen Kane Cotton Twill Bermuda Shorts

I love these shorts and you can read the full review. They are comfortably stretchy and flattering. The rise comes up quite high which is fab. The legs are tapered which I find slimming. The length is perfect, and I did not need to alter the waistband. Available in black and white.

Ah too bad they don’t have a length for petite ladies. Angie, do you know what the inseam length is for those? I’ve ordered some walking shorts from BR in a petite hoping they’ll fit nicely. I’ve already returned ones from Loft and New York and Co. My quest for shorts that will hide my knees but not look dowdy and matronly has begun!

Char, just click on “Shop this item” and you’ll get all the details. The inseam is 13″ but they could easily be cuffed to be shorter (or shortened or lengthened) as they have a 2 1/2 inch hem that doesn’t show a raw edge when folded up.
I ordered these in both black and white. The fabric is nice and substantial and stretches to fit without feeling tight. They seem true to size. I usually wear a 2 or 4 (or 27) and the size 4 is a good fit. I’m giving the black pair 5 stars.
Even though the fabric is substantial, the pockets show through on the white pair and will need to be removed. Because of the pocket placement, it looks like there will still be a double layer of white on the upper part that will show, so a long top will be best. Only nude undies will work with these. There are no rear pockets.
Over all these are flattering shorts.

The length is perfect, and so is the rise. No muffin top, no need to tug them up all day. I bought the black. My eye had to get used to the narrower legs, but they’re growing on me. Maybe I’ll get the white, too.

I’ve been wearing these a lot and want to add to my review that they are so comfortable without stretching out and bagging. I can wear them several times before washing. I wash them on gentle/cold and lay flat or hang to dry. It’s nice to have something besides denim as a choice for hot days.
I’ve yet to send back the white and now think I’ll keep them. They will be more comfortable than my white denim clams.
