Reviews

Poor fit

"I received 2 pairs of shorts that were dramatically smaller than they should have been. More than 1” smaller waist than what size I ordered. Unfortunately after talking to customer service, they said that is an acceptable range for the sizing of their shorts. Too bad because I have a pair that fit perfect and I wanted a few more pairs because the pair that I had were so great. Had to return them both and went for another brand"

Good Fit

"Comparing to Stretch Zion that I’ve worn exclusively for 10 years, they are slightly heavier in material but not too heavy. Waist fit cut contours nicely. Only drawback is the side pocket which I was hoping to be a good place for a phone. It fits in but the pocket is too wide and too much on the side of the leg resulting in a floppy banging feeling. Pocket needs to be slimmer and more on the front of the leg like EB Guide pants. I still like them and would buy again."

Custom Home Builder

"Shorts fit great, I like a tapered fit around the thighs. They are a tiny bit wider than I like but real close. . deep pockets, many colors and great belt loops. All around a pretty good pair of shorts."

Got these for my dad

"Got these for my dad as a Father’s Day gift. He said the are great although he said the zipper comes undone very easily and never stays fully shut."

— Sydney B. (4/5)

Exactly what I was hoping for

"They fit well and the 12” in seam is what I wanted. The fabric is high quality and water repelling."

— Brady W. (5/5)

Experience

"My complaint about the shorts my wallet fell out of the back pocket at two different restaurants while I was sitting. Also the customer service is lacking. I sent an email requesting service on the order I had placed for the shorts and it was never responded to, also bought a sweatshirt which I like getting another one but after this experience, I’m rethinking that."

— Patrick A. (3/5)

Overpriced, poorly fitted, and poorly designed shorts

"Although my waist is a 40, the short rise on these shorts made for an uncomfortable fit. Additionally, neither of the rear pockets can be secured with Velcro or a button, so items cannot be secured, plus the pockets tend to gap open. All in all, these are overpriced, poorly fitted, and poorly designed shorts that I chose to return."

— Donald R. (5/5)

Fits well. Great casual shorts.

"Fits well. Great casual shorts. Bought several colors for variety."

12" switchback

"Quality is as expected. Sizing is a little small. I wear 32 and sized up for IWB carry but they fit like my 32's. Makes IWB carry tighter than I'd like. But i kept them bc i despise going through a return process."

— sid l. (4/5)

Quality speaks for itself.

"Very nice fabric with a substantial, but not heavy feel. The weave of the fabric is really nice. It feels like it won't get easily snagged on brush. The fit is good - long enough not to feel like Magnum PI, short enough that I don't feel like I need a skateboard. Great quality - will be buying more."

— John D. (5/5)
