Perfect

These shorts are ready for a hike or a barbecue! Slim fit, good length, with ability to cinch the waist if you are skinnier than I am. Fabric appears long-lasting.

Second pair.

This is my second pair. Love the fit. Size up as they run small. I’m 5’3” and weigh 125. I bought a size 8.

Great fit

Love the Splash shorts. In fact, I ordered a second pair days after receiving the first pair. The 5 1/2” inseam is the perfect length. After reading reviews, I sized up and I’m glad I did. I’m 5’3” and weigh 125. I typically wear a size 6 in Kuhl’s. I ordered a size 8. Would love to see more colors in this style.

Fits great--just need to upsize

I had 2 pairs of these shorts that I bought several years ago in size 2. Wanted to replace them, but was worried about sizing based on reviews. Ended up going with size 4 and fits just right. Not sure what happened with their manufacturer, but just go up a size. If you haven't worn this style before..maybe try two sizes. Customer service was h...

Great Short

The splash fit true as size. I wear a size 4 and fit was perfect. Red color was more "brick" red, so not too bright.

My go-to shorts

Perfect length for 5’3” stubby legs (ie flattering thigh coverage for the more modest of us if you’re built like a hobbit). These shorts cup and curve and move with you. Plus they dried very quickly when I got soaked giving my pets a bath. I wasn’t expecting that. Winners. I now own 3.

Another classic by Kuhl

Hooray!!! So happy I found these shorts! They replace another Kuhl pair that is no longer made, which I got probably over 6 years ago (slanted back pockets with side pockets that button). I had literally started getting holes in them and I decided to try looking again, and found these perfect substitutes! Only issue is that the sizing is sligh...
