Unsure of the reaction of someone who usually wears comfortable 'trousers' in the evening at home but is too hot in the summer, I bought the Red Panda shorts for fiancé Nick for Christmas, slightly tongue in cheek. He wore them all day on Boxing Day and on New Year's Day in France with friends, enjoying making a statement! They are such good quality, wash well and by all accounts are comfortable. One hundred percent success and will be buying more. More colours please!
