“I love the Porter 3.0 shorts. However, the sizing and cut has changed recently in my experience. Last year, I bought a pair in khaki and since they fit loosely I sized down to a 32. They're still my favorite everyday shorts.
I just bought a second pair in black, and the 32 was way too slim and I had to size up to a 33. Even going up a size, they're still a bit slimmer than the old cut. I'm not sure if there's any easy way to distinguish this as the shorts are both called the Porter 3.0. I'd recommend ordering a couple sizes to find the best fit.”
