Great shorts, I use them for mountain biking, I love all the pockets and how they fit, very comfortable. Most mountain bike shorts lack pockets and are not as comfortable as the Scout shorts. I bought a black pair, and liked them so much I ordered a blue and brown pair.

I really like the shorts themselves. Nice material, fit, look good and they are very practical.
The reason for the 4 star instead of 5 star review is that they are produced in China, a country that is a trying to subvert the U.S.

Absolutely worth the investment. My fire department is starting to transition to duty shorts, so I decided to give these a try. I was honestly expecting the material to feel stiff or scratchy, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. They feel like a perfect blend of athletic shorts and professional duty wear, lightweight and breathable like swim trunks, with the functionality of cargo pockets and the polished appearance you’d expect from a uniform.
I wore these for a 16-hour shift, and they remained comfortable the entire time. I never experienced any irritation from rough fabric, frayed stitching, or seams rubbing against my skin. As a firefighter, I’m constantly walking, climbing, kneeling, and moving, and these shorts never felt restrictive or uncomfortable.
I initially looked at cheaper brands, but I decided to spend a little more because sometimes you really do get what you pay for. In this case, that couldn’t have been more true. The quality, comfort, breathability, and fit exceeded my expectations. If you’re debating whether they’re worth the price, I’d say they absolutely are. After one full shift, I was convinced.

Our department allows shorts for patrol. I’ve had a great experience with the assault pants, I figured I would try the scout shorts. The fit is spot on! They are very comfortable and all the extra pockets are useful. The length is just right! These can be worn for casual wear as well.
