The best shorts I have found for work. They stand up to almost any abuse and they stay on without a belt. I have a 29” waist and the 30s fit perfect. Making my 3rd purchase of 5 pairs right now.Posted: April 25, 2022

I love these shorts. They fit so well I don't need a belt. They have pockets for everything I carry and more so I remain organized.Posted: March 23, 2021

I first bought these about 4 years ago because of the shorter inseam. I’m 5’6” and most shorts cover my knees and make climbing or high knee movements difficult. Living in Florida, I wear a pear of these every day, and those I originally purchased are still in amazing condition. Only 1 snap doesn’t hold anymore, but the belt does it’s job..LOL. I especially like the cell phone pockets on either side. Being behind the cargo pocket adds extra protection from outside impact. They are so much a part of my day, and they look neat and are durable. I’ve worn them to church, woodcutting, kayaking, bushwhacking, tree climbing.... they are literally all I wear. Extremely happy with them. I wish they came in a camo pattern.Posted: February 8, 2021

Been wearing the TS tactical pants for a long time and was glad to find and try the TS tactical shorts. Love the stretch bands in the waist- makes the sitting easier with less pressure around the waist! Will buy morePosted: August 10, 2020

These run small compared to the Tactical Pants, which has the expandable waistband. The elasticyou see pictured on the shorts provides very little give.Posted: July 17, 2020

I have already owned the 24/7 pants for a few years now, so I thought I would try the shorts, and I must say the shorts have a same exact quality I would expect of the 24/7 series, I was not disappointed.Posted: July 6, 2020

Overall they are a great pair of shorts. They're light and are true to size for a reasonable price. Only complaint that I have is I wish they had a small pocket besides your big pocket like the tactical pants do.Posted: May 12, 2020

Tru-Spec's Simply Tactical Cargo Shorts are some of the most comfortable and practical shorts I own. I wear shorts just about 365 days a year, rain or shine, hot or cold, The two drop-in pockets behind each of the front cargo pockets are ideal for cellphones (large enough for the new iPhone Xs Max), and the 9" length is perfect. The only suggestion I have to make this product even better is to incorporate two magazine/knife pockets into the design which are currently on the Ascent short series.Posted: July 14, 2018

I bought 4 pairs of these shorts on July 4th when they were on sale, and to say I am impressed is an understatement! First off the shorts are awesome, very well made with lots of pockets! I especially like the pocket for my cell phone! Customer service at Tru-Spec is amazing! I got sent two of the same color and with in 30 min of sending an email asking for a different color pair of shorts be sent, I was called by Stephanie apologizing for the error and stating she would send the correct pair out the next day, which she did! Tru-Spec is my new favorite place to buy tactical pants and shorts! Great product!Posted: December 3, 2016

Best shorts I've owned. All pockets are heavy velcrow, lots of carry options and clean up very well. I wear these as everyday casual gear and find, when I wear other than these, I miss the pockets and comfort. Great for rainy weather also as all pockets are shielded with covers and dry out real fast. On my 5th year with three pair and they still look new.Sign up for exclusive deals & product news
