Review on ๐Ÿ‘– 5.11 Tactical Men's Taclite Pro 9.5-Inch Shorts with Poly/Cotton Ripstop Fabric, Teflon Finish - Style 73287: Superior Quality and Durability by Shawn Quick

They've downsized the pockets!

Every spring I buy these shorts. They last for years, I just like to have a few on rotation. They were always the same, which allowed me to put together the perfect kit for summer everyday use. Well, this year's proposal is a big mistake. The cargo pockets are about 5mm narrower than the models from back then, so my backup gun no longer fits in a cargo holster. To make matters worse, this year the front left pouch is significantly smaller and won't fit in my primary gun's spare magazine. Even the tiny front right pocket has shrunk - used to fit 3 fingers, now you can 2. I keep hygienic lipstick in there and a tiny AAA flashlight; In years past, shorts ran horizontally, but this year they sit awkwardly upright. The cut and finish are impeccable as always, but the pockets... Come on!
