Customers praised these trail shorts for their comfort, quality, and practical features. Many highlighted the "strong material," multiple pockets, and lightweight design. However, sizing proved inconsistent - some found them too small while others needed to size down. The waistband received mixed feedback, with some wanting more give and additional belt loops.

Shorts are an excellent fit and well made : pity

Shorts are an excellent fit and well made : pity that they were badly creased in the plastic bag.
Nevertheless a quick iron sorted that out.
Can still recommend your company and the items you sell

Second Pair.

These are my second pair. The first I bought were green , I forgot to review them. The second pair are blue. I love these shorts, they are very close to another company’s design who are a walking/ camping company. These seem slightly more roomier , have pockets galore. I think the material of the blue ones seems slightly more robust. They wash well but are a bugger to iron. Smart enough to go out in, great for summer country living.Good value for money. Love these.
