Happy with them!
Bought these for my husband...he seems very pleased with them. They are true to size and the blue color is very nice - not too bright for him.

Comfortable and functional
Functional cargo pockets. Sized to fit smartphone , wallet and other items. Material is durable enough for hiking and camping activities and these shorts are stylish enough for everyday wear.

Nice clean looking shorts
We got these for my husband and he loves them. They fit exactly the way they are expected and look really nice. They could be worn daily or even out to a nice place because they are dressy enough.

Son Loves these Shorts!
These are my son's favorite shorts so much so he wanted 3 more pair after I bought the first ones. They are classy and wear comfortably. Washes easily with no wrinkles out of the dryer. Run a little larger than other brands he wears but with belt they are perfect and I'm sure he will get 2-3 years wear until he outgrows them...teenager so depends on growth spurts! He absolutely loves the style and cargo pockets that fit his cell phone perfectly.

Great Shorts In All Aspects
I rarely by clothes on-line but I couldn't find columbia shorts at my local stores at this time of year. I have not been disappointed by this purchase. These shorts are very comfortable and look great. I am happy I took the chance and purchased them!

Cargo shorts
I have owned several pairs of Columbia’s cargo shorts thru the years and keep coming back to them. They are very comfortable and I need the added pockets. I highly recommend these!

Great short with all the pockets I need
These are great shorts, long enough, comfortable and have enough pockets for my EDC. The fit is true, I am a 35 in jeans and these fit with room.

Great quality shorts great price
I am very happy with my purchase of the Columbia shorts...
I bought one pair to see if they met my expectations. Two days after receiving them I purchased two more pairs.
Nice looking as well as a near perfect fit, they are very soft (non-chaffing) for long hikes and cool.

I own at least 3 pairs of these shorts. The 8 inch inseam is perfect for hiking and working in the yard. The cotton fabric wears well and are extremely comfortable.

It looks like these shorts are being discontinued. Please don't. These are the best fitting shorts I've ever found anywhere. Great for hiking and casual wear. I have 6 pair and they won't last forever. I wear them for hiking and I hike a lot.

We bought some of these shorts for my son last year. He loves them and we have been looking for more ever since. He found them on the web site and ordered two more pair. Now I don't have to see him in the same shorts all year long

Feel so Good
These shorts are everything you could want in a comfortable, casual short...workmanship is excellent and the fabric is just right for any season. I prefer the convenience of cargo shorts for carrying anything I might need right there where I can reach it. I recommend them highly and will buy again.

Soft, Quiet and Strong
I wear these daily as a uniform for my profession. The fabric is quiet and breathes well in this Florida heat. Dries fairly quickly when it rains and hasn't shown any signs of wear yet. A few have lost their button, but I used the replacement button included and carried on.

Shorts are OK
They are lightweight and comfortable, though they seem to run a little large which makes them slightly baggy. Biggest complaint is the length: I normally wear a 30" inseam in pants and jeans, the inseam in these shorts makes them fall right at my knee (especially if I've got stuff in the pockets) which is very irritating. Going to have to have them hemmed up. Otherwise, they are a functional pair of shorts at a good price.

Small and disappointed
First the good: it seems to be made well and looks nice too. The problem: the waist is just too small. I wear a 34 waist but these shorts just didn't measure up. They are unwearable. I think if you order up a size you'll be pleased.

High quality, comfortable pair of shorts!
These shorts are a great combination of comfortable and looking good. They're not quite a baggy and floppy as some cargo shorts so in my opinion look better than most cargo shorts. They sit just above the knee and seem to run slightly smaller at the waist than my other shorts. Great choice for a combination of comfort and good looking.

Nice shorts
Very nice shorts for any activity. I normally wear a 31 but had to exchange the 32 for a 34 which fit perfectly. So order at least 2'' bigger than normal for a comfortable fit.

Still Great
I have had the original Brownsmead shorts for years, mainly because of the comfort and long lasting nature. After losing a few pounds I found that I needed new shorts this year. I was very pleased when I got these shorts to find out that they are still the same great quality and fit. There are a couple subtle changes like the Velcro on the back pockets not being there, but in general they are the same. I'm very happy to still be able to get my favorite shorts of all time. (Even though they are slightly different)

Awesome Shorts!
I absolutely love these shorts. I have several pairs and wear them every day. I normally wear a 44 waist in pants, but these run a little large as the 42 waist fits me perfectly. The fabric is comfortable and rugged as it holds up well.

I have a closet full of Columbia shorts. The last batch of 4 I ordered are too small and I will be sending them back for exchange. I will continue to purchase Columbia clothes. I do wish that more local stores sold the shorts.
When the add says, sizes run smaller, they do.

My Go-To Short
Love these shorts!
PROS:
- Fit comfortably; does not ride up or hang too low.
- VERY soft material.
- Deep front pockets. Even has a coin pouch inside the right front pocket!
- Cargo pockets are billowy, with lots of room.
CONS:
- Back pockets do not have any enclosure; I would like to have a zipper/button/hook & loop flap or other to better secure my wallet.
- Cargo pockets are roomy, but a little shallow; I have a tough time securing the the hook & loop flap over my iPhone 6s Plus or my sunglasses case.
All-in-all a GREAT pair of shorts! Just bought my second pair and plan on buying more.

Great shorts...color not true to description
The Brownsmead 2 shorts are a very nice pair of shorts. The 8 inch length does not go below the knee which is nice. It is hard to find cargo shorts that stop at or just above the knee. The color though does not match the description on the website. I really liked the "Fossil" color which is what I ordered, but the shorts I received were tan. Not the color I wanted but the fit was good enough that I kept them.

Where's the rear pocket button?
Columbia always makes well constructed and functional products. However, is it too much to ask for a read pocket button or velcro to secure valuables ?

Comfortable and sturdy!
These shorts are nice and rugged! Comfortable cloth with durability. The cargo pockets are nice as they don't bunch up like most other cargo shorts. It helps they have buttons rather than velcro even if they are not quick access, still better design. Purchased on sale and well worth the price at the point.

Found What I Wanted
These shorts are an excellent product. They fit me perfectly, and are very comfortable. I bought the same shorts last year. They were very good, except that the rear pockets were too small. I complained in a product review. Much to my surprise the new pair have larger, deep rear pockets. I like everything about the new pair of shorts, especially the color.

Beware Sizing
For decades I have had a 32 inch waist. Five years ago, these shorts in size 32 fit me. Since then the waist has become larger to the point that the last pair I bought are size 30 and fit comfortably. Just to be sure I used a tailor's tape and checked my waist. Yep, I'm still a 32 inch. "Size inflation" has come to even supposedly measured sizes. Otherwise these are good journeyman shorts.
