Comfortable and strong
This is my second pair of the Carhartt shorts, the first being more like carpenter's shorts. These are still good quality but they stopped making or selling the first type. They are a comfortable fit for me; 5' 7" and 195 lbs. I like these and would buy them again.

Extremely Comfortable
For someone like me who has short legs and a bit of a belly, finding comfortable work shorts can be a problem. As a handyman, I do not like cargo shorts on the job. Too many difficult to access pockets. There are no flaps or velcro on these and the inseam is short enough that the bottom hem is not below my knees. The stretch waist with the draw string makes them very comfortable around my waist and I can choose to wear a belt or not. The material is also a very comfortable cotton.

Fits well.
Good shorts. I bought three different colors; all fit slightly different and the front pocket openings are a bit tight for my hands, but I still like them a lot.

Tough as
Quality is through the roof on every Carhart product I have bought including this one. Super Duper Durable and unbreakable stitching. Get them as dirty as you want and wash them 1000 times, and you will still have these. Warning: Sizes do run a little larger than other manufacturers shorts.

Good Purchase!
My husband loves these! This is his 3rd pair. Fit is good and is consistent with his first two pair purchased a couple of years ago. He wore them all summer. Thank you!

Good looking durable shorts
I've got a couple pairs of these for my summer time carpentry work and a couple pairs that I keep nice just to wear casually. They are great. I'm a stocky guy and oftentimes I wish that they had a little bit shorter insane but they're not bad. Like others have said the drawstring is a little weird and I've always cut it out. However I just realized that since it's placed on the inside if you don't need a belt you can roll it over to shorten the length a little bit! I need a belt for working but for casual use this does okay.
