A black palm-graphic Palm Angels shorts in the brand's loose, skate-inspired cut, listed across S through 3XL. The sizing and material notes circulating come from rep-community posts and a brand sizing guide, not from this listing. Ask the agent for flat waist and inseam measurements before ordering.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
Loose, skate-inspired Palm Angels cut: the brand sizing guide says size down for a fitted look, order usual for the signature look. Rep buyers report the waist and leg length don't scale together — a waist that fits can still come with a long leg. The listing shows S–XL in one line and S–3XL in the size spec; confirm the sizes stocked.
Buy if
You want the loose, skate-inspired Palm Angels silhouette — the brand sizing guide says order your usual size for that look — and you're happy to confirm waist and inseam numbers with the agent first. Suits casual rotation in black.
Skip if
You want a fitted cut and won't size down, or you need leg length to scale predictably with the waist, which buyers report it often doesn't. If matching the black precisely to retail matters, note rep pieces are said to run darker.
