Together with his grandpa, a young boy finds a way to save his favorite tree in this heartwarming Christmas taleAlec loves to climb trees--the little apple trees, the wide willow trees, even the tall locust trees. But his favorite is the great spruce, with its sturdy trunk and branches that stretch up to the sky. Alec's grandpa planted it as a sapling years and years before Alec was born, and every Christmas, Alec and his grandpa decorate the tree together, weaving tinsel and lights through its branches, making it shine bright. But one day, a few curious men from the nearby city take notice of Alec's glistening great spruce, and ask to take it away for their Christmas celebration. Though it's a huge honor, Alec's heartbroken at the idea of losing his friend. With great courage and creativity, Alec comes up with a plan to save his favorite tree in this joyful holiday tale.

Nice shorts, fabrics thin but a great fit.
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Light Green, Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Light Green
These are nice shorts, free flowing thin but not too thin. Feel nice wearing, easy to move around in them.
I like the zipper pockets, things don’t fall out of my pockets now when driving or hiking.
These are great wearing while walking, hiking or jogging, really durable. Material is thinner than I’m use to but still nice.
These have nice elastic waistband plus a tie, I like this.
These are great wearing while playing basketball, has nice are flow and lets skin breath.

Great, comfortable athletic wear. As comfortable as boxers.
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Olive
These are my new favorite shorts. The fabric is durable, but light and breathable. The waistband is comfortable, and the drawstrings are good quality. I like the zippers on the pockets, which are also good quality, and are easy to grasp thanks to a rubber coating. There's also no static cling with these shorts, like what I get from the polyester shorts from wallyworld. If I had to nitpick, it would be concerning the design/fit of the front of the shorts. There's no pleat, or crotch, and this creates a slight "poochy" look, this also makes them more roomy, and easy to move around in though as well. I liked them enough to buy 4 more pair, and that's all you need to know. They wash well, and don't shrink.

Must have! Buy in every color
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Green Camo
Great shorts for the price. The quality comfort and size are all great! We were surprised with how well made these are for the cost and my husband ended up getting multiple pair in different colors. We have only had them for a week or so now so I’m not sure how durable they are long term but from the feel, they seem as they will last. Zipper pockets are the best part as he is active and also likes having zipped pockets when traveling, coaching, etc.

Super baggy
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: X-Large, Color: Dusty Blue
Light weight and nice thin material. These things are super baggy and make you look funny. I wouldn’t wear them in public.
