black Hanes shorts(Amazon)
We love summer, but it's been a hot one and that means comfortable clothes are a priority. Finding the right bottoms that also don't show sweat stains in this heat is a must. So imagine our excitement when we learned that these highly rated drawstring shorts not only fit the bill but come in at less than $10.
The super-comfy jersey shorts from Hanes have five-star reviews from nearly 40,000 happy shoppers — and thanks to Prime Day you can get them for as low as $8 in black, and just a buck or two more in other neutral match-anything colors.
Less than $10 for a quality pair of shorts is a pretty sweet deal, and right now, these are down to $8 in black — such a bargain (over 50% off!) that you can pick up some other on-sale colors, too, for only 75¢ to $2 more.
These practical shorts are designed for comfort — they're made with a cotton-poly blend so that they're both soft and durable, and they have a wide elastic waistband and a drawstring for a secure and comfortable fit. One satisfied shopper even called them "unicorn shorts." They are a good fit for a variety of shapes and comfortable for working around the house, gardening — and more relaxing activities like vacationing, where those pockets will come in handy. These are the kind of shorts you'll find yourself reaching for even when you don't need them.
About 40,000 Amazon shoppers are five-star fans of these comfy shorts, with many raving about their coziness, fit and, of course, those pockets.
"These shorts are just right for my 67-year-old body — not too short," a thrilled shopper shared. "They are loose enough to be comfortable and more appropriate than bike shorts for women over 50, or anyone who doesn’t like compression shorts."
"Needed some comfy shorts for vacation," reported a savvy traveler. "Going to be doing a lot of walking in midsummer. I used to make fun of my mom for finding one clothing item she liked and buying it in every color. But, guilty! I've officially become my mom."
"I bought three pairs in different colors for everyday wear of mom life, and I love them," shared a happy wearer. "They have elastic and a drawstring, so if you're having a bloated day you can loosen them, and if you are feeling thin after a day of sweating away pounds mowing your lawn in the summer heat, you can cinch 'em up."
Shoppers report that sometimes these shorts can be a little too forgiving.
"I have ordered four pairs of these now," said this reviewer. "The large fit OK when I put them on, I do like them a little roomy, but after wearing them all day, I feel like they stretched, making them just a tad too roomy."
Another offered this tip: "Be careful as these shorts run big, so if you normally wear a large size, you may want to try a medium. Of course, everyone is built differently, so what is good for one person may not apply to everyone."
