Not quite what they were

I all but live in an older pair of these shorts; rarely wear the newer ones, which have no fly. Wish I could go back in time and buy more of the old style.

Super Comfortable Short!

What else can I say? Super comfy and breathable. And I look sweet in the color! no one wants to read an entire paragraph on a pair of shorts... They are HONESTLY the most comfortable shorts I own, haven't climbed a corner in Moab to see how durable they are, but I ran in them a bunch this summer training for a race with no noticeable wear. I couldn't wear them to the race because it was snowing and I wore pants.... guess ill see if they have a pant in this model. Also the sinch strap instead of a belt is pretty sick too.

Awesome everyday shorts

Work for pretty much any summer activity (from golf and paddle boarding to climbing/biking). The material is pretty durable and dries pretty quick.

Tight waistband, fragile material

I purchased these shorts in black, size medium (like all of my shorts across all styles). I really like the overall appearance of the shorts, but the waist sizing is extremely tight- why not include a zipper fly at this price? I own the Astro Shorts - 7" in the same size and they aren't nearly as tight... Regardless, these aren't suitable for rock climbing, outdoor or indoor. First session I wore them on rock they snagged and frayed. I wore them again indoors and they got absolutely chewed up by the walls. Maybe these are more suitable for light hiking.

Love the Pocket Design

Found these at a thrift store with the tag still on, but they are now my favorite pair of shorts! The only ones I wore all summer. So comfortable and I love the pocket design, I can run and not worry about anything falling out. They are extremely breathable, great for sunny summer weather.

Best shorts for big quads

These are my favourite shorts ever as I am 5'9 and do a lot of power lifting so most shorts don't fit my legs but these ones do quite well. the material is really nice and the side cargo pocket is great, also 7" is the perfect length to not make you look short

The best shorts I've ever come across

The most comfortable, good looking, easy shorts I've ever worn. I have so many of these now, and they're the only shorts in my closet. 11/10.
