Men's cargo shorts with six pockets and an elastic waist, for summer walks, camping and everyday jobs on warm days.

Good for: warm-weather walks, camping and the cottage, with keys, a map and other small things in the zip pockets. The elastic waist gives as you sit, bend and walk.
Not made for: cool days or rough bush. The short cut leaves your knees bare.


Compare the size guide with shorts that fit you well, laid flat. The waist stretches a little; add your own belt through the loops if you like a firmer fit.
