How do they fit and what size should I choose?
Most reviews say they fit true to size with good stretch and a slightly shorter cut. If you’re between sizes or have muscular thighs, consider sizing up for a bit more room; otherwise choose your usual size.
Are they versatile for different activities?
Yes—fans of c'est normal wore them all summer for swimming, hiking, running, workouts, boating and lounging. The quick‑dry fabric and comfy movement make them easy to wear across activities.
Do they have an inner mesh lining?
No—there’s no inner mesh lining; only the pockets are mesh. Several reviewers like the freedom, and if you prefer a liner, many wear compression or swim briefs underneath.
How fast do they dry?
Most feedback says they dry quickly after a swim. A few noted they weren’t quite as fast as another pair they own, but overall customers find they’re ready for the next activity soon after.
How are the pockets and zippers in daily use?
Reviews highlight the zipped pockets as very handy. They sit close to the legs (comfortable for running) and keep keys and cards secure in and out of the water.
