Review summary

Automatically prepared based on reviews

These shorts are widely praised for their durable, hard-wearing fabric, solid construction, comfort and large number of roomy pockets. Customers also like the look, colours and overall fit when the right size is chosen. The most common drawbacks are the thick, stiff material, which suits cooler days better than very hot weather, sizing that can run small or vary between versions, and pocket buttons that some users find awkward and hard to undo.

    Very good shorts, excellently made and fit perfectly in size M, exactly according to the size chart. I hope they will serve me for years. I definitely recommend them!

    Size: XL

    Definitely good material, feels very strong. Many shorts around are made to feel nice and soft straight from the package, but they are mostly weak and break easily. These ones are thicker, a little stiff and even harsh at first, but they get softer little by little when used and washed. I believe that material is the best I have ever seen in shorts, and I am sure they will last several summers. Also, the workmanship seems to be good, the seams are neatly made and there are no loose threads at all. The only weak spot seems to be the buttons. Better take them off immediately and sew them on yourself, otherwise they will fall off soon. Fix that and you have durable shorts for years. The pockets are practical in style and size, without any nonsense impractical pockets that you see in too many shorts, with the size of a packet of cigarettes or even smaller. In these decent pockets you can carry everything you need: a large smartphone, wallet, cigarettes, lighter, keys, a multitool — no problem at all. I can easily even fit a notebook and pen among other stuff and still have extra room, for example for snacks. Cargo pockets are secured with buttons, so everything you put in there stays there. Belt loops are also practical and a good size; you can fit a 50 mm wide belt with no problem. The fit of the shorts is loose, not a trendy skinny look but a nice, wide and relaxed feel with ease of wear. I took the olive green ones and will definitely order the black ones as well later. XL fits very well for 180 cm and 97 kg. It gives 2 or 3 cm of extra room on the waist, which you can deal with using the straps inside or with a belt, whichever way you want. I will do both. The length for 180 cm is just what I like; it reaches the lower part of my kneecap. I am very happy with these shorts at this price and I recommend them to any adult male who does not like the fancied modern kitsch of some weird hip-hop style.

    They performed very well in the summer, are solidly made, and it is hard to find any flaws in them. Another advantage is the large number of pockets. In the right size, they reach below the knee.

    Size: M

    These are some of the better shorts I own. They are a little too wide at the waist, but that is not a major problem. A big plus is the large number of pockets and the fairly durable material. I recommend them.

    Size: L

    The trousers are very sturdy, almost canvas-like to the touch, thick and stiff, which actually suits me. They are comfortable to wear, while also fitting well and not looking too loose. The downside is the buttons on the flaps, because they are hard to undo, but that’s just part of the charm of this style, and I accept it as a feature of this model.

    Size: 7XL

    The material is very thick and durable, so these shorts are better suited to cooler days. At the same time, the quality of workmanship and practicality are of the highest standard. I definitely recommend them.

    I highly recommend these shorts. The size is accurate and they look as if they were tailor-made. The material is durable, they are precisely sewn and perfectly finished. The colour looks even better than in the photos.

    The shorts have a durable material, I give 4 stars because the seams could be more carefully made. I bought size XXL in dark camo, I am 185 cm tall with a 107 cm waist – they fit well, they are slightly loose (about 2 cm), but they don't slip down, so I am satisfied. I also have another model in woodland version, size 3XL – they are a bit wider at the waist and legs, for these a belt is needed, otherwise they fall down. This solution suits me.

    I liked the shorts, for a height of 190 cm and weight of 100 kg, I took size L and they fit almost perfectly. The fabric is quite sturdy, I hope they will last a long time. They will be great for fishing in the summer. Delivery was prompt.

    The shorts are made from quite thick fabric and seem durable. I rate the quality of the stitching positively; they have eight pockets, with the upper ones being large and the side ones even bigger. The legs are wide and can be adjusted at the bottom, which is typical for tactical trousers – it's not entirely to my liking, but they are comfortable and don't restrict movement. I am 173 cm tall, have a 96 cm waist, and size XL fits well.

    There is one but very annoying flaw in these shorts – they have huge, impractical and even dangerous buttons on each pocket. Until they are replaced with snaps, my rating for these shorts is 2/5. Additionally, the sizing runs small – if you usually go for XL, here you should definitely choose XXL.

    For me these shorts are a summer hit! Very comfortable, they have a slightly worn look, which makes them fit perfectly with the retro style. I wear them practically everywhere: for walks, cycling or meeting friends. The material is airy, so they work well even on hot days. I recommend them to people who value a relaxed, effortless style.

    I am very pleased with these shorts. The sizing matches what the manufacturer states, the material is sturdy, and the pattern is really nice. I wear them every day when it's warm. It's still hard for me to assess their durability, but they seem to be long-lasting.

    The trousers are very comfortable and fit well (the sizing is spot on; at a height of 186 cm and a weight of 86 kg, size XL fits perfectly). The material is interesting, quite sturdy, and resembles canvas – it's possible that it will become softer after washing. The pockets are spacious, although the ones on the thighs could be a bit smaller. The pocket flaps are stiff, so even with the button undone, nothing will fall out (the buttons themselves are very tight and hard to fasten).

    A total disaster. After just a month of use, two buttons fell off (barely sewn), the decorative thread is unravelling, the shorts make noises when you walk, and they're oddly designed (belt loops in the crotch – what's the point?). Very poor quality, like something from a market stall, just much more expensive. I do not recommend!
