Wonder Nation Boys Knit Shorts, Sizes 4-18 & Husky

I picked up a few pairs of the Wonder Nation Boys Knit Shorts for my son, and they’ve quickly become his favorite "everyday" pair. If you’re shopping for sizes 4–18 or looking for a reliable Husky fit, here’s how they held up for us:What I liked:The standout feature is definitely the cell phone pocket. It’s tucked away nicely so it doesn’t look bulky, but it’s actually functional for holding a phone or small gadgets without them falling out during play. I also really appreciated the longer rise and longer inseam. They sit comfortably at the waist and hit right above the knee, which provides great coverage and prevents them from riding up while he’s running around. For boys who need a bit more room in the hips and thighs, the Husky sizing offers a great curvy fit that doesn't feel tight or restrictive.What I disliked:Because the fabric is a soft knit, they can lose their shape just a little bit after a full day of heavy activity. While the longer rise is great for comfort, if you buy a size too large, the waistband can feel a bit loose, so you might want to double-check the drawstring to make sure you can get a snug fit.Personal Experience %26 Tips:Overall, these are solid, soft, and durable enough for school or the park. My biggest tip? If your child is between sizes, lean toward the Husky option for that extra curvy room—it makes a huge difference in comfort for active kids. Also, since they are a knit material, I’d recommend washing them in cold water to keep the colors from fading over time.

I bought these for myself (F, 60y.o.), and I am very pleased. They are true to size, a nice material, and long enough to not show everything. I bought a size bigger, for comfort, around the house, but i can see myself wearing them out as well. Would definitely recommend these shorts for boys or girls (if your daughter doesn't like short shorts). I bought several colors and love them all!
