The shorts are made from fairly thick material and seem durable. I rate the stitching quality positively; they have eight pockets, of which the upper ones are quite large and the side ones even bigger. The legs are wide and can be adjusted at the bottom, which is typical for tactical pants—not entirely to my liking, but they are comfortable and do not restrict movement. I'm 173 cm tall, have a 96 cm waist, and the XL size fits well.

Camouflage Sandstorm
Sandstorm is a camouflage inspired by the classic M81 Woodland, tailored for the civilian sector. The color palette may differ with each manufacturer, but typical variants prominently feature beiges—like sand, light brown, and cream—well-suited for desert and arid environments. By adjusting the traditional stain design, the camouflage maintains a recognizable appearance while offering improved suitability for settings with light, sandy backdrops.

There is one very annoying drawback to these shorts – they have huge, impractical, and even dangerous buttons on every pocket. Unless they are replaced with snaps, my rating for these shorts is 2/5. Additionally, the sizing runs small – if someone usually chooses XL, here they should definitely go for XXL.
-
For me, these shorts are a summer hit! Very comfortable, they have a slightly distressed look, which fits perfectly with the retro style. I wear them practically everywhere: for a walk, cycling, or meeting friends. The material is breathable, so they work well even on hot days. I recommend them to people who appreciate a relaxed, effortless style.

I am very satisfied with these shorts. The size matches what the manufacturer claims, the material is solid, and the pattern is very nice. I wear them every day when it's warm. It's still hard for me to judge the durability, but they seem to be long-lasting.
-
The pants are very comfortable and fit well (the sizing is spot on; at 186 cm tall and 86 kg, size XL fits perfectly). The material is interesting, quite durable, and resembles canvas – it's possible it will get softer after washing. The pockets are spacious, though the ones on the thighs could be a bit smaller. The pocket flaps are stiff, so nothing will fall out even if the button is undone (the buttons themselves are very tight and hard to fasten).
-
Total disaster. After just a month of use, two buttons fell off (they were barely sewn on), the decorative thread is coming undone, the shorts make noise when walking, and they're strangely designed (belt loops at the crotch – what's the point of that?). Very poor quality, like from a market stall, just much more expensive. I don't recommend!
-
Great, sturdy, and comfortable shorts. The size is perfect and easy to match. The material is rather thick, so it’s better suited for less hot days – but as a result they are very durable. I recommend them.
-
Solid, well-made shorts made from thick material, which works well for trips to the forest, shooting range, or other outdoor activities. There are enough pockets, and the drawstring at the waist is a plus for me. I recommend this product.
-
The shorts are generally okay, but the material is very thick—in my opinion, too heavy for summer weather. For me, they were too wide. Personally, I prefer models with Velcro closures, which are easier to adjust at the waist.
-
The shorts are quite thick and strong, with good quality workmanship. I think they will last me a long time. Size L fits my 95 cm waist perfectly. In my opinion, they are worth their price.
-
I ordered the shorts in the “dark camo” color—they look even better in person. The material feels very durable, and the style and workmanship are great! They look awesome when worn. With a height of 190 cm and a 107 cm waist, size 4XL was spot on. I highly recommend them.
-
The shorts fit perfectly, with roomy and well-placed pockets. Although it's a new purchase, they seem to be durable. They will work well for everyday wear as well as special tasks.
-
Shorts are just shorts, the material is a bit too thick, and the sizing runs small – if you usually wear L, it’s better to choose XL. Overall, they look good, have spacious pockets, but as with Brandit – instead of a classic closure at the waist, there’s a drawstring. That’s why I give it 4 stars.
-
The shorts are okay, though the material is a bit thicker than I expected, and the sizing runs a bit small – if you usually wear L, it's better to choose XL. Overall, I have no major complaints; they look good and have spacious pockets. As usual for Brandit, the belt is a string, so I give 4 stars instead of the maximum rating.
-
The shorts are fine. I chose size L, have a 96 cm waist, and they fit well, even though the chart here says 89 cm – you need to add about 8 cm, as the store states, and then everything is correct. Earlier, I bought XL without adding those 8 cm to my waist, so they were too big. Delivery and shop contact were quick, I recommend it.
