Not too tight, not too baggy, not too short – just right! North Face is my go-to for attractive, comfortable shorts. I love the stretchy fabric, the pockets, the easy care. In this style I have both twill beige and tourmaline blue, and I ordered two different inseams for different summer looks.

Great fit! Comfortable! True to size!

I now own 8 of this style9( 5-old and 3 new.) The new updated style are not for the better. Front pocket is smaller and not attached to leg of short, which allows phone to move around, and phone barely fits now. There is a back pocket, which isn’t needed in a women’s short and it has an odd zipper pull on the inside of the pocket-I miss the small zippered front pocket which fit my keys perfectly. Side slits are not necessary. Only thing I do like is the logo is embroidered and it’s location has moved to the front of the leg instead of at the back waist.

Just bought these today and love them. I have a lot of issues with shorts ridding up when walking and doing anything and these don’t do that. I don’t have to keep pulling them down like other shorts.

I have several of the Aphrodite Shorts from past seasons. They fit my slim legs very well. I loved the details on the past version – such as the vertical stitching. This new version does not have those vertical lines. It does have a slit on the thighs, which make me feel like I am wearing a pair of Umbros. The little key pocket that used to be on the front thigh has been replaced with a zippered pocket on the backside. That pocket on the back makes this short appear “baggy” on me. Also, I hate the embroidered logo on the front. I loved the simple heated on logo that used to be on the back hip. Lastly, the material feels different on the newer version- similar to a noisey track pant. Sadly, this short is going back. Wish they warned us that staples are being modified so we have time to stock up. Such a shame.

Love the long length in these! The extra length is great if you actually want to do something in your shorts without picking them out of your thighs all day for those of us with athletic thighs and a big bum. Great over a swimsuit, for travel days, hiking around the house or whatever. Lightweight fabric dries fast.

The new version of Aphrodite shorts are not for better. I own 15 of these shorts in previous style which I love, these don’t fit like the old styles. The fabric feels like they puff out to make the shorts feel bigger in size, the back pocket is useless and the sled slits don’t serve any purpose. Anyone who never owned shorts from previous seasons wouldn’t know or care, but those of us who were royal buyers of these shorts are highly disappointed in TNF for this failed update.

Ordered 3 colors in Small L and Medium Long. Olive , light blue and the boring tan LOL. Sent tan back for black as these are winners! Went up to M as Small were too snug on my 15 lb gain.
For price point and versatility & utilitarian can’t beat!
Modest length, pockets, drawstring elastic waist and lightweight that don’t show skin flaws thru them. Not see thru either. More colors!!!!!!!!!!

I love these! So comfortable! I have only taken them off to wash. They probably aren’t the most durable. I feel like they are of snagging. Don’t let the cats kneed while on your lap. But I just love them so much I don’t care. The my are light and breathable. I am thrilled with the khaki color. I am 5’8″ 150lbs. I ordered large. Could have probably fit in the medium because of the elastic waistline but I am pleased with the fit and function.

I love these shorts! I’m 5’2″ with a long slim torso, curvy bottom and thighs and size small fits perfectly. I bought one pair in size medium which are a little big. I love how these shortsfit higher on my waist but are roomy through the thighs. They are so flattering! I wear them for everything… hiking, backpacking (love how they don’t interfere w/hip belt on my heavy pack), and even Mountain biking (wear them over my padded bike shorts and they fit great). The fabric is soft and stretchy and dries quickly. I spend winters living on a sailboat and these are perfect for sailing, beach days and working out. I own 4 pair and will keep buying more. The one downside is they do tend to pill so I’m careful to launder them with like fabrics and hang dry.

The shorts are comfy and feel great. However, they are very fragile, which is regrettable for an active/outdoor garmet. On the third or fourth time, while wearing them to an outdoor event, it seems my crossover purse rubbed against the shorts and damaged the material. The purse did not have any defects or rough spots, it was simply the light rubbing motion that caused the damage. Additionally sitting on the grass at the venue and moving seemed to damage the material.

Great fit, feel, and look. These shorts are comfortable and cute. I appreciate the back zipper pocket and deep front pockets. I own this short in multiple colors. These are a summer staple.

This fit great and the length is great. Super comfortable!

Amazing. I originally bought these to wear on a river trip, but they did not dry as quickly as I would have liked. Recommend for every day use – hiking, camping etc. Comfortable!

I love these shorts – perfect length, not too tight nor baggy. Lightweight fabric, can wear them hiking, playing pickleball or just running errands. I have 2 pairs!

Love these shorts! So comfortable and fit perfectly. I have them in 5 colors. Wish they were made in more bright colors.
Brenda –
Im excited for the new colors!! these are my favorite shorts of all time and I have them 4 of them now. They are super comfortable soft material, I even wear 3-4 times working at home or when traveling which proves the breathability of the material, they don’t get stinky making multiple wears possible before washing & packing lighter on hikes. I thought these were pricey at first but the quality and feel of these is worth it.
Brenda –
Love them!! In addition to my other review in this item I also started wearing them to my performance dance class. I sweat buckets and these keep me dry and cool

Love the shirts!!!!

The Aphrodite is the best, comfortable, breathable shorts I’ve only worn since purchasing these. I’ve also purchased the capri and it fits perfectly for my stature.

Perfect fit and perfect fabric. Will order another pair as soon as they become available. The quality and fit is probably why they are on backorder!

I own a few pairs of Aphrodite shorts and this version/model seems to be the best quality. These are my most comfortable shorts.
