I own a pair of the utility everyday shorts, They are very comfortable, stretchy and breathable. I typically wear a size S, and I love how these shorts sit perfectly on my waist without even needing to use the drawstring. However, the drawstring is a nice addition for when I go to the gym, ensuring that the shorts fit snugly around my waist. Additionally, the D-ring is a nice feature as it comes in handy when I cycle around, allowing me to secure my keys without worrying about them falling out of the pockets. overall a great pair of everyday use shorts for the tropical climate.
