love ''em! i won't usually spend so much on shorts, or even on long pants for that matter! aside from my climbing and ski pants these shorts are more expensive than anything i own! but the peace shorts are worth it!! belt is kinda chintzy but it actually looks quite good on the shorts as it's flat and low profile (and i'm not even a belt person -- shortwaisted, so belts rarely show anyway, and i'm not a shirt tucker-inner). length is perfect rolled up, about 4", and i like anywhere between 3-5" (i'm 5' 7 1/2"). but they also look great rolled down. i got the rhubarb because i adore bright colors and already have enough pants in light, earthy tones ; although, these are so great i might not care what color. still, the orangey red color is most fantastic. the fit is absolutely perfect and the back pockets make me look like i've got a great butt again (i'm 50 & it's gotten smaller over the years no matter how much yoga i do :) the low ish waist is super flattering. i was concerned about sizing but the 27 is just right, like it was made for me. i'm a 26 or 27, 28 in juniors usually (sizes 4, 5 or 6). my (high) waist is actually around 28" but i always order by hip size and my hips are about 36 1/2" and i like my pants on the snug side. so glad i took a chance on these. i think they'll be my favorite summer pants.
Flattering Short for a shorter girl... I recently ordered this short in the Cayenne color. I am short, so it is somewhat difficult to find shorts that are flattering on me. I love how you can wear them long like a bermuda short, or rolled up once, or twice for a shorter look. It looks flattering all 3 ways and they are soft and wash well! It also comes with a cute belt which I did not notice in the picture. I am 5'1", 100 pounds, and ordered a size 25 - which was the perfect size and my typical size. I am hoping for a sale soon so I can order these shorts in more colors!
Quality & Style I bought this shorts on sale in the winter because I am going away and I am so happy I did - they are much softer than the typical Sanctuary peace shorts - love the color too!
cute shorts but very inconsistent sizing! i have these shorts in rhubarb, size 27. and i also have 3 pair of peace pants, size 26; because the pants have some spandex, unlike the 100% cotton shorts, i can wear a smaller size. just got another pair of shorts, great cobalt blue color, in 27 and they're too small! talk about inconsistent sizing. i do remember trying on one pair of 26 pants that was too small so i guess i shouldn't be surprised that sizes vary with color or even *within* color. for reference, i buy by hip size, which is 36 1/2 for me. anyway, if you buy the shorts, they are darling but be prepared to buy a couple different sizes, or maybe just get lucky with one size like i did with my first few purchases. now i'm stuck with shorts that just *barely* fit, very uncomfy, that i can't send back. at least they were cheap but i am disappointed that they will go into my sell in-the spring pile...
Liked them Okay I have Sanctuary Peace pants and like those a lot better than the shorts. The fabric is very thin which some have liked since it is cooler for Summer but I prefer to pay for a thicker, quality fabric. I bought two pairs of these expecting to love them but I just think they are okay. They are tight on my middle but right on my behind which happens a lot because I am a bit soft in the middle. I got a size 31 which usually fits just right but again--a little tight. Cute style but too thin--I'll keep 'em but I feel I could have done better for the money.
Not the same fit as the pants, color not true to image I love my Sanctuary Cargo pants, so was excited to get the shorts. The fit is not the same though. I ordered the same size and the shorts are about an inch smaller in the waist. I ordered the color Safari, which on the website looks brownish, but the shorts I received are a warm olive green. Overall they are still very cute, though not what I was expecting!
