    Packs well for travel, and dries overnight

    I've ordered three pairs in olive, brown duck and black. They all fit comfortably and the fabric is light. They're almost like swim trunks, with the mesh pockets. Packed in my luggage for travel, they take up about 2/3 the size of my other Dickies shorts. They dry well overnight if you hang them rather than use the dryer. After a couple washings, the reflective logo on the duck-colored pair is starting to peel off, but that's a pretty minor issue. They're also not as long as my other shorts, which exposes more of my thigh above the tan line (well, freckle line, in my case) when I'm riding my bike.

    Okay shorts for the price

    The styling is acceptable as is the color. The fabric is thin and the FLEX waistband is ineffective (I own other [older] Dickies shorts with the FLEX waistband and they have more 'give').

    More for work less style

    The cut on the bottom cut in at a V shape mad me look bo-legged. Much longer than expected I am 5'10 and it covered my knees. Not very roomy in the Thigh.

    I can't sweat them up.

    Purchased these as a gift for my son. He requested this because he had 1 pair already and absolutely loved them. Perfect for his job as a landscaper. His words " They dry so fast, I can't sweat them up." Found a fantastic deal & purchase several pairs. He is so happy.

    My new go-to work shorts!

    I gave these shorts five stars because they’re the most comfortable and breathable work shorts I’ve ever owned. I wear a size 40 and Dickies usually fit a bit snug on me. However these shorts in a 40 were a perfect and slightly roomy fit. I can move very easily in them which is important because I have a physical job.

    Love Them

    I now have 4 pair of these shorts. They are my favorite summer pants. They are cool on hot days, dry quickly and the phone pocket is in just the right spot.

    Great Biking Shorts

    I own 2 pairs of these and I use them as mountain biking shorts. I love the fit. They're a good length, not baggy, and just a bit of stretch. I can do a full, deep squat in these.

    Quality workmanship for a perfect fit!

    Fits perfect! Not too tight and not so loose as to fall down if you forget your belt. They give you the freedom to move and the quality of workmanship is well worth the price.

    Great outdoor work short

    Amazing shorts for landscaping. Durable, lightweight, quick drying and keeps you cool during the hot summer days. Just enough pockets without the cargo feel. Pants are also amazing for fall cleanups. Compare to performance hiking shorts that cost 2 or 3 times as much. I get about two years out of them and that’s heavy wear.

    Durable, cooling shorts that look and feel great

    Comfortable, cool, durable, 3rd pair. My only complaint is it would be better if there were size 39 available. 38 is as little snug on me and 40 falls right off. Bigger guys deserve a precise fit too.
