Spring is in full swing, which means it's time to trade in those regular pants for something shorter and sassier.

What reviewers say 💬

If 2,200 five-star ratings say anything, it's to add to cart, stat.

Pros 👍

"Love them," gushed a proud owner. "Fit is flattering and comfortable. A nice alternative to shorts for a 70-year-old woman."

"I got these because they kind of looked like palazzo shorts, and I liked the waistline," one over-the-moon shopper chimed in. "They do look like palazzo shorts, and the waistline is SO cute. It has a very slimming effect … they're really quite comfortable. I could do gardening, or yoga, or even wear them to work if I wanted to, they're so versatile."

"These are so lightweight, cool and comfortable," wrote another happy convert. "Have a slimming effect, too. The fabric feels magnificent and is such that you can dress it up or down."

Cons 👎

Not everyone was totally sold on every aspect of these pants.
"These are just about the most comfortable pants I've ever had," wrote one shopper. "Very soft and don't wrinkle. Only minus is they cannot go in the dryer, but they dried fairly quickly."

Another shopper said: "They do have a couple of snags just like any fabric woven like this so you just have to be careful of that. That being said, I have been wearing them around the house during chores etc, and there are only a couple of snags."

The high waist and flowy cut make these capris a spring go-to.
