    Good shorts

    Super comfy, reasonably priced and look good. Bonus that it’s a fairly local company to me 😀✌️

    Definitely not swim shorts

    No liner, and very thin fabric especially when wet.

    Overpriced for the quality. Shame it’s too made in China this isn’t talked about frankly is disappointing given the organic / surf / sustainable ethos portrayed. Regardless of recycled manufacturing processes it cannot be called sustainable if it comes to me in UK from the other side of the world.

    Hey Jonny,

    Thanks so much for taking the time to review.

    I'm so sorry the shorts aren't perfect for you this time! The Ponoma shorts are designed as all purpose shorts that can be worn for hiking, swimming etc and therefore there is no lining in these.

    You can find information about our suppliers here https://www.passenger-clothing.com/blogs/news/factories-of-passenger and we're always happy to talk about our sustainability and manufacturing processes so please reach out at info@passenger-clothing.com if you'd like more information on this :)

    Thanks again,
    Chloe

    Great Shorts

    Super light, comfortable and stretchy. Works when swimming, hiking or working out in the gym. It’s easy to wash and dry. I love it.
