Very happy with comfort and quality
(2022-07-02)
I am so happy with the comfort and quality of these shorts that I bought a second pair and these are my regular shorts now. The photographs do not show that the shorts have a high back with two buttons for braces which was typical of trousers in the Victorian and later periods. I remember seeing it on a pair of trousers in a shop when I was a boy. I am an old fogey, so the old-fashioned style is a bonus to me!

The shorts ended up being too big for me. They really need to make smaller sizes
Almost perfect, and FANTASTIC SERVICE as always

I accidentally got the wrong size (my error) and they sent along the correct one quickly. One pair had a weird manufacturing defect that was also very very quickly replaced.
I really love these shorts and my wife thinks I look great in them, so...win/win!

Great to have a reproduction like this available for more or less the price of similar quality compared to what you might get off the rack in a pair of modern shorts.
Great value

Very nice material, all the buttons correct a great pair of shorts. Note: ordered size 36 i am actually a size 39"-40". Fit perfect! WPG pants sizes are all bigger than actually stated, so I'm glad I took the initiative and ordered two sizes down.

Another awesome product from What Price Glory. These shorts are well made! The color is a nice deep khaki/tan & the material is thick and strong. The metal buttons are well sewn on. Even more so, the buttons are smooth edged (I had read other reviews mentioning the sharp buttons).
Size wise, I think they are spot on. I bought a size larger than normal, because I wanted them a little loose to wear hiking. By the way, if you wore these with an un-tucked shirt, no one would ever know they were military.
From an historical perspective, I do not have an original pair for comparison. Going by period photographs, it is clear that these are accurate shorts. All in all, these are great shorts for chasing Boers across the veldt or resettling their families in camps.
