We are working under maximum temps right now, which means we need comfy clothes that can take the heat. Finding flattering shorts is tricky, but my Prime Day cart is all about shorts that make me feel and look good. This Hanes version? Just $9 — and thousands upon thousands of Amazon shoppers swear by them. Wear 'em on your next vacation or in the garden, this isn't a deal you want to pass up — you might even want to add a few to your cart before the next heat wave hits.

These K-beauty bestsellers have taken social media by storm thanks to their exfoliating properties. They contain ingredients like white willow bark, citric acid and botanical extracts to target enlarged pores, blackheads, whiteheads and excess oil, which promotes a smoother complexion with smaller-looking pores. They're currently down to their best price in months.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

We've never seen the price this low! This is ridiculously affordable for a quality piece of clothing. Trust me: Our readers go bonkers for these shorts.

Why do I need these? 🤔

These practical picks are designed for comfort — they're soft and durable, with a wide elastic waistband and a drawstring for a secure and comfortable fit. One satisfied shopper called them "unicorn shorts." They're so good I have a feeling you'll grab them for everything, from puttering around the house to vacation (where those pockets will come in handy).

What reviewers say 💬

Nearly 42,000 Amazon shoppers are five-star fans of these comfy shorts, with many raving about their coziness, fit and, of course, those pockets.

Pros 👍

"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."

Cons 👎

Shoppers report that sometimes the 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, 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."

If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
