For hot-weather operations, it would be hard to beat the Elite Lightweight Shorts. The shorts design is long on details, with a front metal D-ring plus eight strategically located multi-use pockets, including two front scoop pockets, two rear backpacker pockets, two back welt wallet/ID pockets, and two front flapped utility pockets. The lightweight all-cotton fabric helps keep you cool, and side elastic waistband panels ease your movements throughout the day. We've designed the shorts for superior durability, too, with strong ripstop fabric, double-needle stitching on critical seams, bar-tacking at stress points, brass front fly zipper, and reinforced belt loops. The reactive-dyed fabric ensures an excellent level of fade resistance. Treated with DuPont™ Teflon® Fabric Protector for a durable, breathable finish that repels water and oil-based spills. Imported. Machine wash. 7½" inseam.

      Comments about Men's 44908 Elite Lightweight Short:

      Live, work and play in a Florida subtropical climate. These shorts are made of a lightweight, comfortable, durable, breathable fabric (cotton ripstop) that performs excellently in this challenging environment. The comfort waist with expandable elastic side panels allow for a greater flexiblity of movement for high activity use. The numerous pockets and their layout allow for a multitude of uses. Great for CCW using small caliber firearms. Reinforced belt loops allow you to use a tactical belt to support a holster for inside or outside the pants carry.Another feature that I love is the metal D ring on the front of these shorts. I use this ring to attach a lanyard for a knive (offshore fishing) and or a small flashlight. Keeps me from dropping my knive in the ocean or losing my flashlight! They are also soft to the skin (garment washing) and they look, wear and feel great no matter what activity you happen to engage in. Only issue I have is their inconsistent sizing compared to the other pants in the ELITE LINE. As other reviewers have commented, they seem to run a size smaller compared to other ELITE pants of which I own many pairs. Size 34 fits me perfect in all of the pants in the ELITE LINE. Size 34 in this short was too tight so exchanged for a size 36 and they fit a little loose but OK with this. Overall, extremely pleased with purchase and would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for lightweight, highly functional shorts.

        Comments about Men's 44908 Elite Lightweight Short:

        I love all the pockets, especially for concealed carry and my iPhone fits in one of the side velcro pockets. I was disappointed in that the button by the zipper broke in half the first time I put one pair on. I know there is a spare, but just an inconvenience. Other than that, I have 6 pair and love them.

          Nice OD green color, and well made shorts. Size is a little on the small size so order one size larger than you would usually order. Elastic on waist band helps on sizing. Pockets are perfect. A very comfortable and light weight short.

              These are great shorts, but they seem to be small. I got a 36" pair, and they seemed like 34's. I will upsize my next pair and I suspect that I will be very happy.

                Great shorts. Much more breahable for summers than other tactical brands. Conceals small pocket holster for 2 inch revolvers and small autos. CCW's should love them.

                With a golf shirt or nice t-shirt, they are perfect for a casual evening out or picnic, or whateever.

                I'm ordering more for next summer. Have not found a down side.

                      Comments about Men's 44908 Elite Lightweight Short:

                      These shorts have a shorter inseam (7.5") most cargo shorts, which is why I bought them. The fabric is nice, the color very deep, and I am ultimately satisfied.

                      They run small, compared to the Woolrich Elite cargo pants which I bought recently. I would bump it up 2". Also, the front cargo pockets are smallish but roomy enough for a cellphone or iPod.

                      Not quite as nice as the lightweight cargo pants, but still OK.
