Yes. I bought a pair a couple of months ago and decided not to keep them because the fabric seemed sheer. It might have been because the fabric is white on the inside -- I also recently bought a Shebeest bolero that is black on the outside and white on the inside, and when I bend my arm my elbow looks white rather than black. But I also held the shorts up in front of a lamp and could see more light shining through the fabric than I could when I held up a pair of LG shorts.

I absolutely loved my old Shebeest Century shorts -- I have four pairs and I am still wearing one of them many years after I bought them. If they went back to using the old fabric I would buy two pairs of them right now.
