Perfect for your husky boy!

I bought these size 14 huskies for my 11 year old who will be 11 soon. He's been eating too many happy meals and snacks at his grandma's on the weekends, and as a boy he's going through puberty and putting on a bit of hips. They fit well, have adjustable buttons on the inside to loosen the fit and are of excellent quality. The length is right, they don't shrink in the wash. I have several Wrangler shorts for him now and chose this brand as the size fits him. The olive color is good too.

Pros
  • Quality comfortable! My brother loves these pants. They also look pretty durable. highlighted.
Cons
  • Very big and hard material

Good for my rating Best for my rating

These shorts fit my son as he has a small waist and long legs. They were perfect for the scout trip, same color as the uniform but cheaper than the scout shop.

Pros
  • Ideal for slim boys
Cons
  • Bought this for my son but he didn't like the feel.

Runs big in my opinion

Be sure to buy one size smaller than you usually buy. They run big. However, one good thing is that it has an adjustable elastic strap at the waist that helps with sizing.

Pros
  • My son loves them and is picky about clothes. They look very nice and are not that expensive.
Cons
  • I ordered a size 14 but it was larger than usual.

Prefect for red bow week and other camouflage days

I bought these for my son to wear for a week with red ribbon on camouflage day. Luckily the waist is adjustable and they fit him perfectly.

Pros
  • My son likes them.
Cons
  • The shorts are only available in 4 US sizes which may not fit boys falling outside of this range resulting in an uncomfortable or unflattering fit.

Excellent value for money for me

I have this for my boy to use at scouting events and camping. It fits very well, the material is very good and soft. Adding back pocket flaps and maybe a front loop hook will improve the camping experience for the kids. I recommend

Pros
  • Fits true to size and was purchased to be used as Boy Scout shorts.
Cons
  • I expected them to be a little bigger

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good shorts. Fits good.

Great fit for my son. Good quality. The first package never made it home and Amazon replaced it without question. Excellent customer service.

Pros
  • The size is correct. rough feeling.
Cons
  • They already had the zipper inflated, only had them 3 weeks and wore them maybe 5 times.

Came back too small

The only reason I sent them back was because I bought the wrong size, the pants weren't too small. Even though they were thin. I didn't like that part.

Pros
  • Luckily, there are adjustable buttons and an elastic band on the inside. Lasts for the next two years!
Cons
  • I couldn't wear it small

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Large! I would like more colors in the size I need.

What I love about these shorts is that they are just below the knee. The colors look a little different than the picture, but that doesn't bother me at all. My main concern was finding shorts for my son that didn't hit above the knee like most shorts currently on sale.

Pros
  • Bought for my 11 year old son and they don't even reach his feet. Too small! But it seems to be of good quality.
Cons
  • Limited color options

The fit is snug for a husky, sizing runs up

The shorts looked durable, my grandson liked them but they are too tight around his waist! I can't wear them, I think I'll see if I can find a kid in the neighborhood who can wear them.

Pros
  • Cargo shorts are fully consistent with the seller's description.
Cons
  • my son wears these

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Color similar to Boy Scout shorts.

These were pretty close to the BSA uniform shorts. They may be a little grayer than the original, a military olive, but close enough. Especially since the price is right!

Pros
  • Bought these for my son. He said they were very comfortable and asked me to buy extra pairs.
Cons
  • not very flattering

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Really classic - my new review

There are no complaints about them - I like the practical nature of the short cargo, and they fit the bill. Build quality seems good as you would expect and fits just right (for my son). The color scheme was chosen for scouting and these will suffice but I find the photo online is a bit darker than reality. I hope they are strong enough to withstand the everyday life of a boy (boy scout).

Pros
  • I love how it fits my son thanks to the adjustable waistband.
Cons
  • Bad landing.

Great thing in my review

Bought these for my grandson. The material is soft and not too thin. Because it was perfect. He's 8 and I'm a little hoarse, but that's not a problem. He loved her

Pros
  • great price, good fit
Cons
  • They're in the leg SO LONG!

Durable shorts from regular to full waist.

The shorts are well made, very durable and feature buttoned adjusters. If you have a skinny child, they will be very tall. Had to return a size 5. The length was great, reaching above the knees like boys wear, but we couldn't adjust enough to fit the waist.

Pros
  • These are great scout shorts for my husky scout. Durable and comfortable.
Cons
  • Ordered size 16 for my 14 year old son. Fits more like a 12. Too narrow and too short.

Great shorts!

We previously bought a pair (smaller) of these shorts to use as shorts for our son's Boy Scout uniform. They look great and wash well and have nice deep pockets. We bought this second pair as they outgrew the other. Our son is very tall but has a thin waist so adjustable waist is a must for us and hard to find in stores. We will continue to buy these shorts, especially in the olive color, for the Boy Scouts!

Pros
  • Shorts
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Perfect for your husky boy!

I bought these size 14 Huskies for my son who will soon be 11 years old. He's been eating too many happy meals and snacks at his grandmother's on the weekends, and as a boy he's hitting puberty and has gained a bit in his hips. They fit well, have adjustable buttons on the inside to loosen the fit and are of excellent quality. The length is right, they don't shrink in the wash. I have several Wrangler shorts for him now and chose this brand as the size fits him. The olive color is good too.

Pros
  • Clothing
Cons
  • Small parts

Holds up great!

my son loves them. When he was growing up, I bought the same shorts three times. Well received, his darling. Also bought in other colors. He wears a pair every day. They hold up really well even after multiple washes! No tears, the seams are sewn very well, the color does not fade. Comfortable belt. Internal elastics with buttons for a perfect fit at the waist. Ideal for active boys! My 13 year old son is about 5ft 3" - 5ft 4", weighs 123lbs, just bought a regular size 16 and is still wearing…

Pros
  • boys
Cons
  • unreliable
