Great looking Madras plaid shorts. I ordered the shorts in both of the plaids but in different sizes. I kept both pairs but cut the elastic waistband an inch and a half down on the larger size 8 because the size 6 fit much better than the 8. Because of the pleats the adjustment doesn’t show., and I “needed “them for a tennis club social the night they arrived. I think that because of the style they run a bit large and you might need a smaller size. The fabric is a nice weight cotton, and Madras is a classic that works well from Spring to Autumn.
