Ordered these in black and I've worn them like five times already. The cargo pockets are actually useful and the baggy fit doesn't swallow you whole like some other shorts I've tried. The drawstring waist is perfect because I can tighten it when I'm moving around but keep it loose when I'm just hanging out.
Just received my black pair and I'm already thinking about buying the beige. The worn-in feel is exactly what I was looking for, and they don't feel stiff or brand new.
These are so good. I got the army green in size M and they fit exactly how I wanted - relaxed but not oversized on me. Paired them with a white crop top and some platform sandals and got multiple compliments. The denim quality feels lived-in but not cheap.
Grabbed these for a music festival last month and they've become my summer staple. The drawstring keeps them in place during actual movement, and the vintage aesthetic photos so well.
The coffee color is more unique than the typical black or blue denim shorts everyone else has. Mine arrived in size L and the relaxed fit is actually relaxed without being sloppy.
I was nervous about low-rise shorts but these sit perfectly without any weird gapping. The baggy silhouette actually flatters my body better than the fitted stuff I usually wear.
I wore these to the grocery store with a basic tank and got asked where I got them. The denim has that perfect faded quality that looks intentional, not beat up.
Styled these with white chunky sneakers and a crop top and honestly felt like I could walk straight into a fashion editorial. The cargo pockets make them look way more intentional than basic shorts.
These feel like I found them at a vintage store but without the $80 price tag. The worn-in denim is my favorite part, it looks aged in all the right ways.
The customizable fit through the drawstring actually makes a huge difference. I can adjust them throughout the day depending on what I'm doing, which is clutch.
These shorts are the foundation of basically all my warm weather outfits now. The baggy silhouette is so on-trend and actually looks intentional, not like I just grabbed whatever.
The black pair is awesome and the fit is perfect, just a tiny bit longer than I prefer. I'm thinking of getting them hemmed actually because they're worth the effort.
Had to size up in the coffee color to get the same fit as my black pair, which is weird. Still love them but just a heads up for the coffee specifically.
The cargo pockets look great but they're smaller than I expected. My phone barely fits, which is my one complaint about an otherwise really solid pair of shorts.
Great shorts, although one of the buttons was a bit loose. For the price I would expect slightly better quality when it comes to the sewing. But the fit is lovely and I did receive compliments on the outfit I put together.
The worn-in feel is nice but they faded a bit more after my first wash than I anticipated. Still look cool, just a touch lighter than when they arrived.
These fit me perfectly in the thighs and length but the waist feels just slightly loose even with the drawstring tightened. Might just be my weird body shape though.
Loved these out of the box but after one wash the waistband started stretching out and now they won't stay up even with the drawstring tight. Not sure if it's a quality issue or just bad luck with my pair.
I've been hunting for baggy cargo shorts with actual function and the Riley shorts deliver. The army green color is that perfect muted tone, the cargo pockets are deep enough for my phone and keys, and the low-rise fit hits exactly how I wanted it. Paired these with a white crop top and chunky sneakers and got compliments all day.
Fifty bucks for shorts this well-made feels like stealing. The denim has real weight to it, the worn-in vintage vibe isn't overdone, and the drawstring waist means I can wear them loose or tighten them up depending on my mood that day.
Just grabbed the black ones and they're my new uniform. Goes with literally everything in my closet, the relaxed fit doesn't feel sloppy, and I can actually move around without restriction. Worth every penny of the forty-nine ninety-nine.
The beige color is subtle and sophisticated while still giving off that effortless vibe. Fabric weight is substantial enough that they don't look cheap, and the cargo pockets actually look intentional rather than bulky.
As someone who always needs to carry stuff, these functional cargo pockets are a game on their own. They're proportional to the shorts instead of looking oversized, and the denim doesn't stretch out even after wearing them multiple times.
Went with coffee for a neutral that feels a bit more interesting than black. These are so comfortable for all-day wear and the low-rise doesn't sit uncomfortably when I'm sitting down or bending over.
Love that I can adjust the waist with the drawstring since sizes can be tricky for me. Got a medium and it fits perfectly with the drawstring snug, giving me that customizable comfort I needed.
These are now what I throw on every Saturday and Sunday. Oversized tee on top, these baggy shorts, and platform sandals and I feel put together without actually trying hard.
The worn-in vintage feel is exactly what I was after and they don't feel like a cheap knockoff of the real deal. Started wearing them to a music festival and couldn't stop reaching for them after.
Wore these to two back-to-back music festivals and they held up perfectly. The denim didn't rip or fray, the fit stayed relaxed, and I could actually move and dance without feeling restricted.
Wore the black pair to casual work and then changed into a crop top for drinks after work and they transitioned perfectly. That's the kind of versatility I need in a pair of shorts.
