Boys 8-20 Hurley Avalon Hybrid Walkshorts Color: Black Size: X LARGE

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is picky with bottoms to wear. They have to be fitted enough that he likes the way they look, but loose enough that they do not squeeze him to tight if he squats down. He does a "squat test" for any pair of pants or shorts that he tries on, and many fail. We got these shorts because he likes the look of them, but I did not know if they'd pass the test. To my surprise they do! He really likes the way they look and feel. I would say they run a big large for sizing. My son is a small 7 year old (mostly size 6 clothing) and the size 5 fits him the way he likes shorts to fit (slightly above the knee). So use that for reference.
