"I first purchased these shorts in 2021 and they were amazing. Worn just about every day since then. Now in 2026 they are starting to look a little worn, so I purchased more! Still amazing shorts, however some of the shorts have a different drawcord…. that is not pleasant. I ordered all Excel shorts in different colors. The black with stars print, and the green color both have this “one size fits all” drawcord that is not adjustable. I’m unable to wear these two shorts because of this. I feel that it digs into my side each time I try to wear them. Still a huge fan of the other colors though! Just wish they kept the same standard across the board for all Excel shorts."
