Men's Ranger Cargo Short

Great shorts for work. Durable, able to carry tools, and most importantly keeps me out of HR.

These shorts and the pants that are like them are the best I've ever bought. I've been wearing these for several years. Lots of pocket room. They are very tough. If you like shorts with really soft material these are not for you. They are thicker than average and made from a tough ripstop heavy canvas material. Another plus if needed is that they come in odd numbered waist sizes. I can wear a 29 but with my pockets pretty full(yes I'm worse than a kid for stuffing my pockets full of "just in case" items) a 30 waist fits me best. Be sure and turn them inside out to wash. It just keeps them from fading as much as they would otherwise. They do not fade bad anyways. They do not shrink much when laundered either.

Pricey but worth it. Excellent fit and pockets highly functional. Well tailored and should be durable. These are 'go to' shorts for any task.

I like the fit and the features are okay. It would be nice to have a cell phone pocket but these pockets are fully functional and without the hassle and eventual failure of velcro (snaps are sturdy, easy to use and don't full up with lint). Fabric is a little stiff but I expect that will improve with more washings. The wear patch for a tape measure is a little thick for a quality tape like a Stanley and you have to slip it over the fabric and slide it onto the leather which kind of defeats the purpose of having the leather. All in all though, these are quality shorts that will no doubt last a long time.

I am blessed to be able to wear shorts when working. However, it is hard to find shorts which can hold a tape measure and utility knife. These shorts are perfect for that. These are great work shorts.Comfortable fit and are ruggedly built. These shorts hold up to me crawling around in them. These look stylish but are made for us worker bees. I will be ordering more. They are true to size.

Little tight at first but the broke in at first use and were very comfortable. Love leather on the pocket for clipping my tape measure on. Pockets are a plus as well. Hammer holster is not on the side I prefer but no big deal. Really liking the shorts!

These are the best work shorts period.. I've tried Carhartt I've tried Dickie I've tried all of them nothing beats these very durable!!! Pockets galore an they will last thru whatever hell u put them thru guaranteed!!!

I initially made the purchase do the fact that these shorts are made of a ripstop fabric. I particularly like that fabric as it is very lightweight and yet very durable. For summertime use it's an ideal fabric. These shorts are loose fitting and comfortable enough. They are a long inseam and will interfere with knee pads, if you're using those. My major concern/ complaint & unhappiness with the product comes from the fact that there are enormous pockets that things get lost in, but no pocket that is small enough & deep enough to contain a Carpenters pencil without having it fall out randomly and regularly! The right side pant leg has two smaller tool pockets. One is a slash cut that normally would be for the carpenter pencil. The problem with that pocket is it's too deep at the top and the pencil gets lost in the pocket. Also the top of the slash pocket is covered by the snap clip and lip of the enormous cargo pocket. The combination creates an obstruction. I need ready access on a regular basis to the pencil. I have neither time nor patience to go hunting through the pockets to find it. Possibly surface stitched pencil/pen pockets on the outside of the slash pocket with the ideal. The other pocket is way too small/shallow to be functional. See pictures. These are not great shorts for Carpenter work. The hammer loop is far too small and tight to function as a hammer loop. Generally this type of loop is stitched in with one leg lower than the other to cause the loop to be addressable more easily. My hammer handle will not even go through the loop, let alone allow it to be pulled back out. A loop should allow for one-handed in / out operation. These shorts do not function as such at all! This feature on these shorts is for" looks only"! The tape measure clip pocket protector looks like it would be a great feature on these shorts. However upon receiving them I find that the material that was used is a very thin piece of plastic. I do not think that it will endure many washing and drying cycles. This appears to me to be another looks only design feature. Only Time Will tell. Hopefully the designer will redesign these with more functional pockets. Until then, Carharts are much better design. Sees last picture.
