Lightweight Utility shorts

What a great lightweight durable pair of shorts. The material is flexible and easy to move in. There are multiple pockets in different locations that come in handy. This inseam is about 1" or so longer than I'd prefer, but these are still a great pair of shorts.

Accurate sizing and interesting color

I intentionally ordered a size too large (38), thinking that would be a good idea. Once I tried them on I realized the sizing is really accurate and I should've ordered a (36). This gave me the opportunity to use the belt loops and with the addition of a belt, it was a very comfortable fit. The belt was easy to use and put through the loops. The overall fit is comfortable, this maybe due to being a little larger size, but I think it would remain comfortable with a smaller waistband. The length is very nice and also comfortable. The color is interesting, it appears to be more blue than grey but is an attrative color regardless of the name. The fabric itself has a little stretch to it, which is something else I wish I had taken into account when making the sizing choice. I really feel like the slight stretch really helps with sitting comfort. Pockets are a good size, and there is a variety to use.

Function over fashion

If you're looking for a high quality utility short that delivers on features like durability and weatherproofing these are a good option for you. The material is high quality and the flex waist is a nice option for comfort. These seem like they will be very durable and long lasting even with heavy use in tough conditions. The tradeoff with an utility based clothing is that you're going to sacrifice a bit of fashion as a result. It's not to say that these are unattractive but they definitely look and fit like a utility short vs. more of a dress short, but that's likely not a major factor since you're buying these with a specific purpose in mind.

Surprisingly comfortable and very fashionable.

These shorts are very comfortable and very durable. When I first opened them up, I thought they were pants, because of the thick material, but I was surprised at how soft stretchy and comfortable they are. The security pocket is especially useful when outdoors. I love cargo shorts, but these don't look like cargo shorts, which makes them more modern and fashionable.

Great shorts!

These are very comfortable shorts. It has numerous pockets! The normal pocket on the right side has an extra zippered pocket inside, which is perfect for keeping keys or other valuables secure. In addition, there are two additional pockets on the right leg, and one additional on the left leg. They’re perfect for golfing. Also, the waistband has a little flexibility, making it comfortable to wear.

Inconsistent sizing

Ordered several 34's in different colors due to the sale. The first color opened fit as expected. The second fits a size smaller. Waiting for the third to arrive before I start a return. Otherwise, the styles are lightweight and appear useful for secure-ish cargo shorts. (zip pocket for wallet, etc.)

Rugged utility short with zippered security pocket

These ripstop utility shorts look like they will be pretty useful for every day use. The double stitching also adds to the ruggedness of their construction. The material seems tightly woven to repel water, but also has a nice stretch to it. The waistband also has a nice stretch, almost like boxer shorts. The security packet in the front right packet is zippered and gives a generous 5 1/2 inches of depth. The cargo style packets on the leg provide even more space.

Great shorts with great functionality

These shorts are really comfortable, well made and functional. It can be worn at the beach, at the park, on the golf course or out for a casual dinner. It has a lot of pockets but doesnt look bulky when you put things into your pocket. I like that the color is subtle as well.

Love these shorts!!

WP: Weatherproof Men’s Cargo Shorts (WP in Cream) COTTON STRETCH MICRO RIP-STOP UTILITY SHORT. I really love these shorts because they are comfortable so much so I got another pair of these shorts (see photos). As a man who appreciates both comfort and a touch of refinement in my leisurewear, I must say these Weatherproof cargo shorts have exceeded my expectations. The fabric is remarkably soft, stretchy, and durable, and I find that it only improves with each wash—a quality I hold in high regard. The double-stitched seams and elastic waistband speak to thoughtful craftsmanship and lasting comfort. The fit is generous without being sloppy, striking that perfect balance most men—and women—appreciate. I’m particularly fond of the numerous pockets and placement, which offer ample space for a knife, keys, wallet, phone, and other daily essentials. The front zipper adds a welcome layer of security, especially for safeguarding smaller items that tend to wander off in the car or couch. My wife has even remarked on how presentable these new shorts look—high praise indeed, considering my older pair has stood the test of time and remains a favorite for comfort. As someone who values quality, practicality, and especially soft materials, I find Weatherproof superior to many pricier name brands. For the price, the quality of materials and construction they are hard to beat. I like the broken in shorts in more casual environments while the newer ones for more upscale occasions since almost all restaurants and such places allow shorts in the Free State of Florida.

Sporty Shorts

These shorts are great for looking good in the summer. You could pay casual pickle ball or gold in these shorts. they have a slight stretch to them in the fabric and are water proof. Zipper pocket is great for when you are jumping around and have keys etc.
