'Just right for my 67-year-old body': These popular Hanes 'unicorn shorts' are down to $8

And look — these shorts even have pockets! (Amazon)

If you've started to catch some warm weather outside, or simply delighted in the later sunsets, you've probably realized that spring is really here. Warmer weather calls for lighter clothing like sundresses, tank tops and, of course, shorts. We all love a trusty pair of the latter that's comfortable, flattering and not overly revealing and Amazon shoppers have found just that: The super-comfy jersey shorts from Hanes. Nearly 40,000 reviewers have given a five-star rating — and you can get them for as low as $8 with the on-page coupon.

In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin never crossed your mind, take it from thousands of Amazon shoppers — it's effective! This serum has amassed a cult-like following thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects. Snail mucin not only helps boost collagen and elastin for a firmer look and feel, but it can also gently exfoliate for a smoother texture while also soothing the skin. Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots after using. Good skin care can cost a bundle these days, so to find such a highly-rated product on sale for just $14 is a win in our book.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

Less than $10 for a quality pair of shorts is a pretty sweet deal — such a bargain that you can buy a few pairs in different colors. The on-page coupon brings the price down to $8, which also happens to be the lowest price we've seen for these in over a year.

Why do I need these? 🤔

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." These shorts are a good fit for a variety of shapes and they're comfortable for working around the house, gardening — and more relaxing activities like vacation 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.

What reviewers say 💬

Nearly 40,000 Amazon shoppers are also five-star fans of these comfy shorts, with many raving about their coziness, fit and, of course, those pockets.

Pros 👍

"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."

Cons 👎

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 size. Of course, everyone is built different, 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 $25 or more.)
