New fan of the Original G |

| To try them is to love them. Other reviews say it all, but I want to emphasize that the fit is terrific for big waist/small butt/small thigh (older) women as well as the more fortunately proportioned. I was reluctant to try them because it is hard for me to find a good fit. They have wonderful freedom of movement for exercise because of the adjustable waist and gusseted crotch, and are great to just sit around in as well. I came back to STP for 2 more pair. Thanks to reviewers who talk about size and fit. It really helps me make educated and happy decisions. |

Great shorts |
| Rating: |  |
| I've had two other pairs of these same Gramicci shorts for a few years, and I love them. They are comfortable and just the right length to keep my legs cool in the Atlanta heat and humidity but not show too much of my 40-something legs. The side pockets make it convenient to carry keys, etc. when I walk my dogs. The cinching belt/waist makes it easy to tighten the shorts without messing with buttons and zippers. These are definitely casual shorts - not made for a night out on the town or the fashion show runway - but so practical for so many purposes. |

glad I didn't cancel my backorder! |

| The shorts arrived just as I decided to cancel my back order. (as it is now the end of summer) I am so glad I waited. I wanted shorts that would be easy and comfortable for active wear; had pockets for phone or keys deep enough that I wouldn't worry about them falling out; and provided some modesty when needed. I was pleased to find the fit flattering for my older shape. Comfortable around waist and hips; not too much fabric at waist; and legs are not huge. Will order another pair! |

Great basic pair of shorts |
| Rating: |  |
| I bought these because I have a pair that I have owned for years and was hoping to be equally happy years later. The belt doesn't slide as well as my old pair, and the new pair are a bit stiffer, but hoping they will soften with some wear and washing. They are just an absolutely comfortable pair of shorts. The length is perfect and can easily be worn around the house, out hiking or a quick trip to the store. |

| I have four pairs of these shorts in different colors and wear them all summer--hanging out, gardening, hiking, running errands, etc. I love the adjustable waist. The way these shorts are cut, they are very comfortable--you can move easily in them, but they're not baggy. Love the sturdy fabric and variety of colors. These aren't the world's most glamorous shorts, but they look pretty darned good and they are very useful for everyday and recreational purposes. |

Can't wait to wear these! |

| Over the last 15 or 20 years, I've had five pairs of these pants. I wear them so much, because they're the most comfortable pants I've found that aren't for working out or sleeping. I wear them at home, at work, at any casual activity or event. They even look good at the end of a long day's wear, no creases or wrinkles. I just wish some of the old colors were still available. |

These are my favorite shorts |

| These are very comfortable and the fabric lasts. The sizes are very inconsistant. Two pair of the same size can be an inch or 2 different. I wish it was easier to get them from Sierra. They rarely have a colr and size I want, so I get them when I can. This last time it took several months. |

great quality and comfort |

| Great shorts because they are long enough for me to wear teaching or to church, yet perfect for climbing. They aren't as flattering as I'd like due to the way the fabric holds the shape (as opposed to drapes) and how much fabric there is around the hip and butt area. |

Great pants for work or play |

| Gramicci Original G Pants allows for a cozy and comfortable fit, plus they do not require special laundering! I own this pant in several colors and they last for years! I live in Texas and this 100% cotton pant keeps you cool in hot and humid weather. A great pant ! |

I love these shorts! |

| I've worn these shorts for many years, experiencing sizing inconsistencies along the way. This time the waist is much larger and the cinch belt pretty slippery-hope it holds! I also am concerned about the thin pockets-they don't seem to be very durable. Still, these are my favorite shorts! |
