I've worn these shorts pretty much everyday to work for about five years now. I can't seem to get more than a bit more than six months out of them. Several times the crotch has just blown out. This last pair the back pocket where I keep my phone is just shredded. I love them. Just wish they'd last longer for how expensive they are.

I have been wearing these Duluth Flex Fire Hose Relaxed Fit 9" Cargo shorts for 5 years now and they are the best on the market. I have many pairs. You can't wear them out. I wish they came in more colors. Let me know when you get more of the Navy and Desert Khaki in stock.
The fit is great. The material feels good as well. The pockets and loops are well placed and useful to work with on projects.
Love the cargo shorts and the cargo pants, best pants ever! The only addition would be to add some cordura nylon on the front pockets for a knife clip to prevent material deteriorating.
I live in Texas, so I wear shorts a lot. These shorts are for working around the house, walking the dogs, riding the bike, living most of my life. They replaced shorts worn thin over 20 years of use. So far, they look up to the job of taking me the next 20 years. Being 76, I'll likely wear out before they do.
