Troopies preferred to wear shorts in the busy on ops. Many simply had their long trousers cut down to a more comfortable pair of shorts, as we have done with these.
How do these shorts fit and what size should I order?
The shorts are designed to sit at the military waist, which is higher than modern trousers or shorts. Sizing is inconsistent between garments, with some finding their normal size to be tight. Some shorts fit true to size, while others require ordering one or two sizes up for a comfortable fit. If you prefer a snug fit, you can alter the top buttons to adjust the waist.
What is the quality of the materials and construction like?
The shorts are robust, well-made, and constructed from heavy military material. They feature a double seat for durability, unlike some reproductions that use fake stitching. The stitching, hardware, and buttonholes are of good quality.
Are the cargo pockets functional?
The cargo pockets are remnants of the original trousers and are cut off. This makes them too small to hold anything larger than a chapstick on some shorts. However, the front pocket is large enough to hold an FAL magazine or a wallet.
Are these shorts suitable for carrying items?
The front pocket is capable of holding an FAL magazine, though reloading can be awkward for right-handed shooters. It is also suitable for carrying a wallet. The high waist allows for inside-the-waistband (IWB) concealed carry of a P229 pistol.
