These shorts are light weight and breathable. I got these for my son and he likes them. They have a draw-string, so a belt isn't needed. These are perfect if you want a light-weight hiking short for the summer.

These shorts have a good fit. Not too long and not too short. I do like the back pocket zipper and the side pocket zipper is a nice touch. It's just big enough to put my phone (OnePlus 11 with a case)in and all the while zipped!

I received this pair of men’s shorts as part of a promotion for my honest review and they look great. The fabrication is very comfortable. The length is perfect for everyday use. I would not hesitate.

I like the look of the Billabong Crossfire Submersible Short, but they aren’t as comfortable as I expected for everyday wear. The material is lightweight and dries quickly after getting wet, which makes them good for water activities. However, the fabric feels a bit thin. Overall, they’re decent shorts, but nothing exceptional.

I got these for my 12-year-old son because he loves shorts and pants with the elastic waist. We like these because they aren't real long... just to his knees. He likes that they are light weight and he loves the many pockets.

30 days now, after few washes, still look like new, good testament of quality of material and workmanship. The 4 way stretchy fabric feels great, with just the right amount of softness and weight for running and working out. For me secured pockets are must, so appreciate that

The Billabong Crossfire Pull On Short is a lightweight breathable short that fits well and is comfortable. The shorts have two front, a zippered rear, and a smaller zippered side pocket. In addition, they are manufactured with a UPF 40+ rating for those sunny days. For those environmentally conscious folks, they are made with a majority of recycled plastic.

The Crossfire Submersible Short has completely exceeded my expectations and has quickly become one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe. From the moment I put them on, the quality was obvious. The fabric feels durable yet lightweight, striking the perfect balance between comfort and performance. What really sets these shorts apart is how well they transition between activities. I’ve worn them in the water, on casual outings, and even for light workouts, and they perform flawlessly in every situation. The quick-drying, submersible material is a standout feature. After swimming, the shorts dry fast and never feel heavy or uncomfortable, which makes them ideal for beach days, boating, or travel. The fit is modern and flattering without being too tight, offering excellent mobility and all-day comfort. The waistband sits comfortably without digging in, and the length is just right—not too long and not too short. I also appreciate the thoughtful design details, including secure pockets that are both functional and discreet. The stitching and construction feel premium, and after multiple wears and washes, the shorts still look brand new with no fading or loss of shape. Overall, the Crossfire Submersible Short delivers on style, durability, and functionality. If you’re looking for a high-quality short that can handle water, movement, and everyday wear without compromise, this is an easy five-star choice. Highly recommended.

I took these wonderful shorts on my latest trip to Florida! They are very comfortable and dry very quickly if they get wet. They have deeper pockets which is nice when carrying a wallet or keys. They feel very breathable and don’t stick to your legs even in humidity. The length is perfect for my size as most shorts are either below my kneecap or mid thigh.

Pants are ok for casual wear around the home. Pants fabric is majority polyester. Not my favorite. Not real comfortable. I would prefer a different fabric. I would not wear out and about but works around the house as lounge pants.
