I measure the inseam at 10.5" and the actual waist at around 39." The fit is loose and there's perhaps a little less texture in the fabric then you might see in some other manufacturer's seersucker pants. I call the condition VG+, with no stains, rips or fraying. These shorts did low-stress service for me, sometimes not making it out of the drawer except for our annual Beach Week. If you're a fan of the Southeastern version of Ivy Style, you know seersucker shorts are classics and a smart choice for our hot, humid summer weather. One hundred percent cotton and proudly unpleated in front.
