Chino shorts: J. Crew? Where else to look?

I purchased some from J. Crew Factory, and I thought that the material was kind of thin- a bit disappointing.

Does anyone know if the regular J. Crew shorts are made of thicker material? Are they worth it, or should I look elsewhere? 

eta: If you have a J. Crew coupon code, I'd really love it :)

  • I have a pair from Factory and while I don't mind them, they are not as thick as the regular ones.  I have about 8 pairs and I really like them.  This will be the 3rd summer I'm wearing them and they look brand new.  

     

    I saw some cute ones at Loft but I'm not sure how thick they are.

  • The regular (not factory) JCrew shorts are great! The shorts at Loft looked nice too.

  • Loft or Land's End Canvas.
  • I prefer the fit/length of the ones from The Loft over regular J Crew.

  • I agree with trying J.Crew, not the Factory. I tried on shorts at the Factory store and hated them because the material was so thin. I really like my regular J.Crew ones.

    My favorite shorts are from Banana Republic, they are the rolled short. I have them in navy and khaki, both are a couple years old and they are still my go-to shorts. They are the perfect length and I have actually wore them unrolled if I want them a bit longer.

  • I would also check out Vineyard Vines. They have high quality chino shirts in a lot of colors. They are my go to.
